Trustees Annual Report
September 2021 to August 2022
COVID has had a negative impact on Brook Green as with the rest of the world! We have remained open continually during all restrictions, however due to being allowed limited children and parents choosing to keep their children away we have been extremely quiet and survived financially by government funding and grants. We have had staff who are furloughed, so it hasn’t really been a pleasant experience.
Even with some restrictions being lifted we are struggling to fill the spaces or to find new staff, a problem common in the childcare sector. The committee have remained the same and been very supportive through a very difficult time.
We are now well overdue OFSTED and our last inspection was in October 2016.
This is a particularly short report as there has been nothing to report on.
We are hoping that in the next financial year we will see an increase in numbers of children, finances and staff. We will also expect to have had our OFSTED inspection.
