For example, staff provide parents with workshops in the nursery to h...elp them learn how to develop their child's early reading and writing skills. • The special educational needs coordinator brings a wide range of expertise and enthusiasm to her role.

She regularly liaises with other professionals to coordinate additional support for children with special educational needs and/or disabilities. This means that staff are highly skilled in helping these children make the best possible progress. • Staff develop effective relationships with children.
