Our Pre School and our staf are committed to the social, emotional and educational learning of the children who attend our setting. Our Pre School Manager and stafng Team plan enriching activities in line with the EYFS framework that also refect a child’s individual learning needs. We have a skilled Stafng Team who monitor and support each individual child’s development and communicate their learning journey with parents and Carers. We provide early year’s care and education to children, aged 2-5 years old. We have sourced and provided training to our stafng group to ensure that they are up to date with mandatory training for their role and also to support their continuing professional development and needs of the children within our Pre School. We employ a high staf ratio of staf members to children and are very much of the view that our children’s needs are paramount and therefore our stafng costs are high. Despite the rising costs of operating, we remain committed to the needs of the children within our community and review our expenditure closely. In addition we plan fundraising activities to ensure our children have access to enriching resources and activities.

the accounts did not accord with the accounting records; or
