Section D Achievements and performance

Summa r y of the main achievements of the cha r ity d u r ing the yea r

With 13 children having left p re-school to start school in July 2019, the new academic year started busily with 27 children enrolled in September. Numbers increased steadily throughout the year, and by July there were 33 children enrolled. Although in the past this number has been higher this was to be expected as the setting had gone through a national lockdown due to the Coronavirus Pandemic. The P re-school saw a decrease in the numbers of two year olds joining the setting which was undoubtedly due to the lockdown. We a re an inclusive early years’ p rovider and make positive steps to assist all children who need extra help. For the year 19/20 we had 2 children on the SEN register, and one children with English as a second language. Pupil p remium funding allowed us to ensure we worked over the staf to children ratio to p rovide individual support at times needed to support a reas of need, and additionally resources were purchased to support development and relationship building. The staf work diligently to build rt ust and develop good relationships with parents. On a number of occasions over the course of the year, staf have supported families with applications for funding and schools.

T r ansition to r P ima r y School

We supported 15 children in their rt ansitions to p rimary schools, with the majority moving onto Mylor r dB i ge C P . . School and Flushing C of E school. The excellent links with Mylor r dB i ge C P . . School were developed over the course of 2018/19; with a number of a dditional opportunities o rganised for the children to visit the school on a weekly basis to spend time using the PE equipment in the hall.

Fun dr aising

With a new committee coming on board in October 2019 and with it a new chairperson the decision was made to p rovide opportunity for the committee to settle rather than begin a calendar of fundraising events. At the start of 2020 the committee made plans to host an Easter Fayre Fundraiser. Unfortunately this had to be cancelled due to the announcement by the Government for a National Lockdown.

Lock d own

The P re-school leader and committee worked hard with agencies and settings to put a rrangements in place to open the P re-school from April 6tth to key workers, setting in place p rocedures and risk assessments to ensure this was done safely and da hering to government guidance. rF om June 1st the P re-school opened for all children whose families wanted to return to the setting.

The p reschool leader, committee and da ministrator ensured fnances were supported by furloughing where possible. The committee were able to assure staf that they would be paid throughout lockdown through the local authorities confrmation that funding would not be retracted while settings were unable to open to all children.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINERS REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF MYLOR PRE-SCHOOL PLAYGROUP

I report on the accounts of the trust for the year ended 31st August 2020, which are set out on the attached pages.

Respective responsibilities of the trustees and the examiner

The Charities trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charities trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) if the Charities Act 2011 (the2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed.

It is my responsibility to:

Examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act;
To follow the procedures laid down in the general directions given by the charity commission under section 145 (5)(b) of the 2011 Act;
To state whether particular matters have come to my attention.

Basis of independent examiners report

My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present and ‘true and fair’ view and the report is limited to matters set out in the statement below.

Independent examiners statement

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:

Which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements
To keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act; and
To prepare account which accord with the accounting records and to comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act.

Have not been met; or

To which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts reached.
