To enhance the development and education of children under the statutory school age by encouraging parents to understand and provide for the needs of their children by offering appropriate play, education and care facilities for family learning. Since 1988, Bottesford Pre-school has, from its purpose-built premises, served families from Bottesford and at least six surrounding villages in the three counties of Nottinghamshire, Leicestershire and Lincolnshire by providing high quality and affordable pre-school care and education. It has achieved the top grade of Level 1 in its EYFS Quality Review by Leicestershire County Council, and following its inspection in July 2022 it was awarded ‘Good’ provider status by Ofsted (which followed its previous Outstanding inspection in 2016). The preschool is managed by a Committee of elected members and officers who act as the Trustees of the charity. The committee is reelected annually in October at the A.G.M. The Committee principally comprises of parents of children who attend or have previously attended the preschool, but also includes the manager, a staff representative and the Bursar. The committee meets once a month during the year to discuss the general business and operational issues relating the Preschool including finances, safeguarding, well-being, staffing, health and safety and fundraising issues, amongst others. Preschool had one manager and five part-time staff members. The manager and one other staff member are qualified teachers. A further two staff members are qualified to NVQ Level 3 and one to Level 2. The staff members are fully up-to-date with their paediatric first aid and **Summary of the objects of the** safeguarding courses and regularly attend additional courses to enhance **charity set out in its governing** their experience and to maintain their training for EYFS. **document** Each member of staff has taken on a specific expert role within the setting, being responsible for cascading information to the rest of the staff. For example, the Safeguarding Officer keeps the staff up to date on safeguarding issues and our safeguarding policy which is reviewed (and updated as necessary) on an annual basis. Our Preschool is open from 8:00am to 4.00pm, Monday to Friday, during the school term dates set out by Leicestershire LEA and includes our breakfast club which has proven successful in attracting children. The day is divided into morning and afternoon sessions with some children staying all day. There are no barriers to entry and all children over the age of 2 years, under school age are entitled to attend, subject to available space. Children over the age of 3 are entitled to receive government funding to cover up to 15/30 hours of attendance at preschool per week. Certain children over the age of 2 also receive 2 year funding, either through the working family or disadvantaged family entitlements. Preschool is paid an hourly rate by Leicestershire LEA for those funded hours. Those children that are not eligible for funding are charged an hourly rate which is set by the Committee on an annual basis having regard to the charitable status of the preschool and the requirement to provide public benefit.

The Trustees, having had regard to the guidance issued by the Charities Commission on public benefit, have ensured, through competent management during this period, in relation to financial and general operational matters, that the Preschool remains well placed to meet its aims and objectives and that it continues to provide benefit to local families with young children. 

**Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to these objects (include within this section the statutory declaration that trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit)** 

**Additional details of objectives and activities (Optional information)** 

You **may choose** to include further statements, where relevant, about: 

- policy on grantmaking; 

- policy programme related investment; 

- contribution made by volunteers.

Section D                      Achievements and performance 

**Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year** 

During the year, Bottesford Preschool has continued to provide a much needed facility to the families with young children living in Bottesford and the surrounding villages. It is the only not-for-profit provider of full-time preschool education in the wider local area and retains its excellent and professional team of staff who have achieved a ‘Good’ Ofsted status in 2022. We do however feel that this did not reflect the true quality of the Preschool and look forward to regaining our ‘Outstanding’ accreditation at the next visit. The academic year began with a healthier number of hours being taken than the previous year and we therefore started the autumn term with a more positive outlook than 22/23. Child numbers increased positively throughout the year; in particular, a significant increase in 2 year old hours which made a huge difference to fee income due to the higher funded rate for 2 year olds. Preschool continued to bolster its income with fundraising initiatives. We had a great year with clothes collections, generating over £1,000 from Bags2Schools. We also received a generous donation of £1,032 from our bid to the Co-op Community Fund. In addition, we chose to host small family centric fundraising events this year, which would bring the community together, including a family dog show which brought in another £200. As we have each year with great success; we hosted a party at the end of the summer term for those children heading off to Primary School in September. Preschool follows the principles of the Early Years Foundation Stage framework and the trustees and the staff work hard as a team to ensure happiness, well-being and positive development of the children. Bottesford Preschool has achieved its aim of providing affordable and high quality childcare and preschool education to the children attending the sessions during the year.

## **Section E                    Financial review** 

## **Brief statement of the charity’s policy on reserves** 

Our target level of reserves is expressed as a target figure and is informed by: 

- our forecasts for levels of income for the current and future years, taking into account the reliability of each source of income and the prospects for developing new income sources, 

- our forecasts for expenditure for the current and future years on the basis of planned activity, 

- analysis of any future needs, opportunities, commitments or risks, where future income alone is likely to fall short of the amount of the anticipated costs, 

- assessment, on the best evidence reasonably available, of the likelihood of a shortfall arising which means that reserves are necessary, and the potential consequences for the charity of not being able to make up the shortfall. 

Our reserves are specifically attributed to the following: 

- 6 months’ expenditure fund to cover unforeseen closure/restricted income, 

- Staff salary fund to future proof against shortfall in income and to maintain a legal and competitive salary rate, 

- Contingency fund in regard to the volatile nature of income vs high expenditure commitment. 

We will keep our reserves policy and the level of reserves held under review, and monitor the level of reserves held throughout the year to establish the reason for any significant difference with the target level set. If reserves during the year are below target or exceed target, we will consider whether this is due to a short-term situation or a longer-term issue, and take any appropriate action. 

**Details of any funds materially in deficit** 


## **Further financial review details (Optional information)** 

You **may choose** to include additional information, where relevant about: 

The Management Committee continued to hold its regular meetings to deal with the administration, finances, fundraising and other practical matters arising from the running of a busy preschool. 

- the charity’s principal sources of funds (including any fundraising); 

- how expenditure has supported the key objectives of the charity; 

- investment policy and objectives including any

ethical investment policy adopted. 

## **Section F                     Other optional information** 

Although we have developed lots of areas of the preschool, we will not embark on big projects for the next year as the future is looking more challenging as the birth rate is falling locally. We are therefore forecasting a difficult financial year in 2024/25 and are going to focus our efforts on promoting the Preschool as much as possible with the aim of trying to increase numbers.

Other investment assets are included at trustees' best estimate of market value.
