Triangle Nursery School has a reputation for supporting children with additional needs. Over the past five years, like many other schools and settings, the number of applications to the school for children with complex additional needs has increased significantly.

We recognised that for many of these children, we could offer support in our classrooms and continue to work towards requesting EHCPs as required. Although we are a relatively small school, some children were quickly overwhelmed by the busy environment and began to demonstrate this through some challenging behaviours.
