MANAGEMENT COMMITTEES' ANNUAL REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2022
The management committee present their report and the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 August 2022. The management committee have adopted the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) "Accounting and Reporting by Charities" (FRS102) in preparing the annual report and financial statements of the charity.
Structure, Governance and Management
Committee
The management committee are responsible for the administration and day to day running of the school.
The people serving on the committee are set out on the legal and administrative page of the accounts.
Risk policy
The management committee have examined the major strategic, business and operational risks which the charity faces and confirm that systems have been established to enable regular reports to be produced so that the necessary steps can be taken to lessen these risks.
Objectives and activities
The principal activity of the charity continues to be the provision of nursery school places for the young children of families living in the Bridport area.
Achievements and performance
The group is open for 5 days a week during normal school terms, and is registered by the Local Authority for 26 places. We have recently had an OFSTED visit and we were graded Good.
There continues to be a waiting list for places at the school.
Financial review
The group has achieved a deficit of £5,021 in the year. This is in part due to staff turnaround and staffing levels. We have had to employ more staff at changeover times, COVID-19 has meant we have had to collect children from the carpark at times.
We have also not been able to do as much fundraising due to COVID-19.

Accounting and reporting responsibilities
The management committees are responsible for preparing the Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the management committee to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources of the charity for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the management committee are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP 2015 (FRS102);
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
-
prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation.
The management committee are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provision of the trust deed. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
