INCLUSION CHAMPION
Inclusion for all children
Gloucestershire County Council's Early Years Inclusion Champion award celebrates Early Years Providers that deliver high quality inclusive provision to all children including those with SEND. To successfully gain the award, we had to demonstrate that we were able to meet the standards of inclusion, complete high quality inclusive training, with support from an Inclusion Advisor from the Council’s Early Years and Childcare Service.
The sections of the award include:
-
Inclusive learning environment
-
Positive behaviour
-
Practitioners' confidence and skills
-
Positive relationships
-
Ready for reception

Our incredible team has engaged in various training courses including:
-
Sensory integration occupational therapy
-
Play to ignite
-
Total communication
-
Neil Farmer's Getting it right for boys
-
Dingley's promise SEND inclusion training

On completion of the Dingley's promise training we received the Dingley’s Promise Mark of Achievement which is a recognition award for early years settings, nurseries, pre-schools, and childminders in England that show a strong commitment to inclusive practice for children with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND)
