These case studies are based on children at Fortune Park and Rosedale Early Years Centres in Islington, London. These are both mainstream nurseries, funded through education and social services by Islington Council. They take children from nought to five years, including extended day and extended year provision.
Fortune Park has places for 65 children, with six places for children with severe and complex special needs, which are funded by the authority.
Rosedale has 52 children, with no places set aside for children with severe and complex special needs. Both centres are well supported by the borough's inclusion team and a range of specialist services provided by the health authority, with access to educational psychologists.
