Section D Achievements and performance
## **Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year**
This year the Pre-school continues to develop the excellent provision of services provided.
The Coronavirus pandemic provided continued significant challenges to the year with a mitigation framework of control measures with full risk assessments in place. Although Government guidance did not dictate the closure of pre-school settings the committee decided we would close for with all other primary+ educations settings from Jan to March 2021. We used the furlough programme to offset lost income and continue to pay staff.
We have ensured that all children have access to a full range of material and activities to follow the EYFS.
As ever, staff have attended a number of training courses to embed knowledge and gain further ideas of how to increase the support and offering they are able to provide the children and their families. We maintain good links with the Primary School.
Continued updates to communications from website to newsletters and the parish magazine ensure that the presence of the preschool is promoted to those in the local area.
Events and fundraising have been curtailed but for those that do take place we use the money received to replenish toy stock and improve the facilities available to the children and staff.
