Special Needs provision

Spring Harvest welcomes all children and young people into the programmes, and seeks to be an inclusive and safe place for all. Although we provide extensive resources in terms of planning, finance, dedicated team members and on-site provision, our resources are finite and the availability of team members with the huge variety of skills required is also a limiting factor. We are therefore unable to provide one-to-one care for individual children.
If a child needs one-to-one care, provision will be made for either the parent/guardian or their designated carer to attend the programme and for them to give any assistance or care that may be required. One parent/carer per child/young person per session.
Everyone who will be attending the programme with your child/young person must agree to comply by our guidelines for carers.
Where special care is needed, but not on a one-to-one basis, the team may still require the parent/carer to stay and help until such time as the Team Leader is satisfied that the team is able to provide adequate care.
A child/young person, whatever their needs, should register and attend the programme with their peers of the same chronological age.
It is a Spring Harvest booking requirement that, once a booking has been confirmed, we must be advised of all relevant details of any special needs for anyone attending the Under 5s, Children’s, Youth and Young Adult programmes.
