Discussed apprenticeships, Rosie has now completed her level 3. Nichola has now completed her level 2 and now starting her level 3. Anne-marie has started her level 3 and Kate has also started her level 3. This will mean all our staff will be level 3. Diane is still undertaking the manager’s position and completing paper work at home. Carrie and Jo are doing the day to day running of the group which seems to be working well. Discussed the fees. The minimum wage has gone up to £12.21 plus there is now additional cost with tax threshold being lowered. However accounts look good at the moment so it was decided not to put up the fees at present. Plus at the moment there are not many parents having to pay so it wouldn’t make a huge difference. Discussed about getting a letting agreement from the church hall, how much notice period they would give us.
7.	Date, time and venue of the next committee meeting To be decided.

Independent examiner's report on the accounts

Section A Independent Examiner’s Report

Report to the trustees/ Charity Name Great Bowden Pre School members of

On accounts for the year 31[st] March 2024 Charity no 1039424 ended (if any) Set out on pages 3 & 4 (remember to include the page numbers of additional sheets)

Respective The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. responsibilities of The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year trustees and examiner under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed. It is my responsibility to:

examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act,
to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act, and
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given examiner’s statement 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 the 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 a ‘true and fair’ view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.

Independent In connection with my examination, no material matters have come to my examiner's statement attention (other than that disclosed below *) which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect:

accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act or
the accounts do not accord with the accounting records

I have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

Please delete the words in the brackets if they do not apply.
