Achievements and performance

Continuing to provide care and education to under 5yr olds serving Summary of the main almost fifty families in the local community. Continuing with these achievements of the charity services during a Pandemic and adapting and changing rapidly with the during the year momentum of the situation.

Staffing numbers have remained consistent and over the past twelve months the staff have continued with various in house and external training and are all keen and willing to continue doing these courses so that they can all keep up to date with the ever-increasing changes in childcare. We were able to use some of the lockdown time to increase online training opportunities and to engage with families virtually too. We have been unable to have volunteers for the second half of this year and parent involvement has also been severely restricted, but we have also adapted to using Zoom and other creative ways to keep parents involved. We have continued to work on the ‘Bristol Standard’ and place high importance on ongoing self-evaluation and reflective practice to ensure the pre-school is the best that it can be. Our financial stability has been severely affected in the last year though as running costs are still rising and numbers have been much lower as parents remain cautious. We were depending more and more on fund raising to try and replace some of our tired and worn-out equipment but these efforts have also been greatly restricted because of the Pandemic. As a not-for-profit run group who try to keep fees as low as possible, we really do look to parents and friends to support us. We have managed to secure some grant money and have been able to make some claims back from the Government furlough initiative and SSP reclaims but not enough to cover all our losses. Our current committee have worked extra hard to try and support the Pre-school in these extremely testing times and staff have gone above and beyond in supporting the children and their families.
