Success is celebrated daily at the Arnold Centre in Rotherham and that includes the achievements of all children, their carers and the staff.
Small steps lead to big achievements, as inclusion manager Christine Coffell continually points out - 'I tell the parents that the children may be taking tiny steps, but they are heading in the right direction.'
Meanwhile, the staff are taking huge strides. The centre, which includes a mainstream nursery, opened in 1999 and became a children's centre last year. It has built a reputation for excellence, earned an outstanding Ofsted report, gained an Investors in People award and won a Leading Aspect Award for its systematic approach to inclusion.
