Achievements and performance
Built on the progress made in 2019120 to promote our serwces and
increase child bc¥)kings to ensure the continued vlability of the pr
school.
Summary ofthe main
achievements of the Gharlty
during the year
Due lo Comd precautions. restricting families to only attending one
childcare setting. we wmmen¢ed the academic year wilh child bookings
below break4ven point. but reached break-even poirrt by spring term.
increasing steadily throughout the remainder of the year, with most
sessions being fully booked by the summer tem.
Despite the continued Covid pandemic. we remained open throughout
the academic year but. during the January to March lockdown, several
families opt&J to remain at home. To support these families, we waived
part of their childcare fees, wilh a subsequent loss of income for the
setting. which was mitigated in part by the Covid furlough grant schem8.
The continued financ4al support from North Yorkshire County Council for
fund&J children provided vrtal income for the setting during the year.
The settjng continued to provide 15-hour Universal Funded and 30-hour
Extended Funded childcare pla￿S for children following their third
birthday. allowing families to daim funding flexibly across all sessions.
Our regular fundraising programme ¢xntinued, to purchase additional
equipment for the Pre-school. although our incorne frorn fundraising was
reduced from previous levels due to Covid.
Continued tight control and constanl review of expenditure on staffing
and overheads. with ca￿fUl monitoring of staff ratios. Ongoing increase
to Costs of deaning during the ac&dem￿, relating to the Covid pandemic.
Continued investment in staff development, with ongoing training courses
n areas such as paediatric first aid, safeguarding, SENCO, health &
safety and safer recruitment. Subscriptson to an HR supwrt team to
meet our increased HR responsibilrties.
Purchase of additional resources to enhance the setting, using funds
from fundraising events.
Conlinued prcMJramme of practical eXperien￿S lor our children, including
visits by extemal companies suth as a handsvon animal expenence,
sports pro9rammes and musical experience providers.
Continued programme of building maintenance, wrth small ongoing
repairs during the year.
