Morley Under Fives Pre-School Treasurer’s Report For the Year ended 31[st] August 2022
Financial results
The accounts for the year are not yet available. These will be provided to the committee at a later meeting as the report is currently being produced by the accountant. The profit and loss figures provided for the purposes of the annual general meeting can be considered in draft as these will not be confirmed accurate until approved by the accountant.
The profit and loss figures currently show a year end loss for the setting of £550.73. Of note in 2022 is that the Preschool received a noticeable uplift in SEN funding and a significant increase on 2021 in projected gross profit for the year. On the reverse, in 2022, the Preschool spent £1984.22 more on expenditures than in 2021.
At 31[st] August 2022 there was £29,054.24 in the Preschool savings account. This is the resilience money for the setting. Monies have not been added to or withdrawn from this account in 2022.
Please refer to the full profit and loss figures detailed at the end of this report.
Comments on the year
In April 2021 the national living wage increased. In line with this the committee reviewed all employees’ wages and the current fee rates for both preschool care and out of school club sessions. As a result, the decision was taken to increase all staf wages in line with the % increase to the national living wage and in line with this to also increase the setting fees. There was a risk attached to these decisions in that if the preschool and out of school club attendance numbers were low then the setting would likely run at a financial loss to pay the staf at the new agreed rates. During the summer term, numbers for breakfast and after school clubs were noted very low but the committee and staf team agreed that the benefits of continuing to ofer wrap around care outweighed the risks of financial loss. This is seen to have impacted the financial position of the setting as the committee predicted.
In 2021 there was a plan to present monthly management accounts to the committee. This decision was further considered, and a decision was agreed that 6 monthly management accounts would provide adequate detail required for the preschool. In the between months, the Finance Officer has produced profit and loss details which the committee has found to be informative and sufficient. I would like to thank the Finance Officer for her ongoing consistent approach to this.
Moving on from the covid-19 pandemic, in early 2022 there have been some further occasions where the committee have taken the decision to open the setting with low and unpredictable numbers further leading to the risks as already noted and subsequent consequence of financial loss. In addition to this a staf member leaving the setting in the summer term resulted in the setting closing to after school clubs on Fridays. There is currently no plan in place to reinstate this session.
In the summer term the Treasurer and Chair were approached by Morley Primary School Headteacher with a view to exploring options of the Preschool being managed by the school. Following a brief staf discussion process and prior to entering a staf
and parent consultation process this proposal was suspended on the basis that the staf team were objecting to this proposal. There may be an opportunity for this to be further explored in future should the committee wish to take this forward.
The committee and staf team worked together to organise 3 main fundraising events this year. Santa’s Grotto, Easter event and holding a stand at the Morley Beer Festival. Combined these events raised over £1000 for the Preschool resource funds but more importantly gave opportunities to raise the profile of the setting and to interact with the local community.
Moving into the autumn term, the Preschool is almost booked to capacity. This is resulting in the setting starting the financial year in a healthy position and will allow the committee and staf team to explore further opportunities to develop.
Recommendations for the future
-
Treasurer to meet with Finance Officer and Team Manager to agree a monthly and annual budget, using this as an opportunity to project resource spends throughout the year.
-
Treasurer to agree with Team Manager to discuss and agree any projected maintenance/ improvement works for the year ahead.
-
Treasurer to be familiar and confident in navigating Kashflow system and to work alongside Finance Officer with this.
-
To promote the Amazon wish list via the newsletter.
-
To consider the long-term financial efects of running breakfast clubs and after school clubs at below 50% occupancy.
-
To consider the inclusion of preschool children to out of school clubs to ofer further wrap around care and support the above.
-
To revisit opportunities to join St Benets Academy to secure the long-term future of the setting.
