Nurture – Ladybirds

At Ramsden we believe that all children are entitled to receive a good education in line with their peers. Every child should be offered the best start in life.

We have recently designed provision within the school that offers a more personalised approach. We believe that all pupils should feel fully part of their community and enjoy the same opportunities as their peers.

We are able to offer a specialist nurture facility, The Ladybirds, for children who need additional support and care when accessing our mainstream education and curriculum.

The Six Principles of Nurture

1 Children’s learning is understood developmentally
2 The classroom offers a safe base
3 The importance of nurture for the development of wellbeing
4 Language is vital means of communication
5 All behaviour is communication
6 The importance of transition in children’s lives

We also have a Pod offering children a quiet sensory space and a sensory breakout space.
