9. Achievements and performance:

After being closed from January to March 2021 due to Covid and having a turnaround of new committee members and staff we are able to continue to ensure the future of the preschool in its current building, to attract new children to the preschool. We achieved a Good from OFSTED in 2019 and want to continue to work at this level. Our focus this year has been on fundraising and planning to improve the outside provision at the Pre-School this will give the children a forest school experience while learning about nature and the world around us. Our reputation as a Pre-School remains high within the community and has resulted in waiting lists for most of our sessions Actions taken include:

The preschool continues to be in a stable financial position, which we must maintain to ensure the preschool remains financially viable.

i. Ensure all financial obligations are up to date

ii. Continue to run the four afternoon sessions as these are proving very popular.

Outlook for upcoming year:

The upcoming year is looking positive, our OFSTED performance and reputation has meant that we are attracting more and more children to the preschool and now have waiting lists for some of our sessions. Our plan for the coming year is to implement our new outside area and explore new ways of utilising it throughout the sessions.
