Little Wisp Bishopstoke

We are a fully accessible preschool with ramps and wide doorways. Our staff team is kind and friendly and we welcome all children, whilst making sure children with additional needs are fully supported to help them meet their milestones. The staff are kind and patient and have a thorough knowledge of child development to enable them to identify any problems early on. We are all able to sign using Makaton, which we use daily in songs and rhymes. We use visuals in a range of ways; visual timetables, choice boards, now and next boards and as prompts. Children who are struggling in anything particular take part in language groups to work on specific areas. These are evaluated regularly to ensure the child is making progress. We work with outside agencies closely to make sure we are doing everything we can for SEND children. We also work with parents to set small and achievable targets for children with additional needs so they are able to progress through the EYFS.
