  We study the consequences of combining SUSY with a pseudo Nambu-Goldstone
boson Higgs coming from an SO(5)/SO(4) coset and partial compositeness. In
particular, we focus on how electroweak symmetry breaking and the Higgs mass
are reproduced in models where the symmetry SO(5) is linearly realized. The
global symmetry forbids tree-level contributions to the Higgs potential coming
from D-terms, differently from what happens in most of the SUSY little-Higgs
constructions. While the stops are generally heavy, light fermion top partners
below 1 TeV are predicted. In contrast to what happens in non-SUSY composite
Higgs models, they are necessary to reproduce the correct top, rather than
Higgs, mass. En passant, we point out that, independently of SUSY, models where
tR is fully composite and embedded in the 5 of SO(5) generally predict a too
light Higgs.
