All children within the Nurseries, regardless of background or gender, are given free and equal access to all the opportunities and experiences that the Children’s Centre has to offer. We value and respect the diversity of backgrounds and cultures that children have experienced and this is reflected in the activities within the nurseries.

Children with additional educational needs (ALN), require different levels of support and may require specialist treatment, facilities or care whilst at the Centre. We aim to work with parents and external agencies to identify and address the needs of each child.

The Centre has been designed for access and use by all children. Where possible, the Centre will aim to provide additional adaptations to the facilities as necessary on an individual basis.

This video explains how Additional Learning Needs (ALN) are catered for in the Ely and Caerau Children’s Centre. It explains the process by which a child will be supported in class and then assessed to see whether they have ALN requiring Additional Learning Provision (ALP).

For further information please read the documentation below which will be updated periodically.
