Achievements and Performance
SORP refer&n¢e
We focus our work on improving the life
chance5 for the children in our care. We serve
an area in Rhonndda Cynon Taff that includes
some of the most disadvantaged children in
Wales. We do this In several ways including by
introducing the Welsh language to children
who come from non Welsh speaking familie5.
We provide tspportunities for children to learn
through play building up their skills and
confidence getting them ready for school. We
know that giving these children the advantage
of being bilingual will greatly increase their
chances of employment when they later
become adults and that introducing a new
language during the preschool year5 15 the
most effective method of introduction. We
also work closely with the Local Authority to
ensure staff attend training courses thot upskill
our staff to provide high quality provision
enabling us to put early interventions in place
for individual children. We assess and plan our
activitie5 SO that we can identify areas of need
and put in place preventative work to support
the children's progress. We provide individual
support for targeted children who are referred
to us by the Local Authority.
