Busy Bees Preschool 20 Bailey Close Chingford London E4 9HG 020 855 4473 Email bus beeschin ord hotmail.co.uk Ofsted Number 146918 Registered Charity Number 1049439 Annual Report and Accounts 1st September 2023_ 31st August 2023
The Busy Bees Preschool, has seen an increase in the number of children with Special Educational Needs, and this has impacted on the dynamics o the group, we are finding that although we have one to one support workers, the needs of these children are very demanding. It only takes one staff member to be absent and the setting becomes quite 'hectic" However, we are still very fortunate to have a high intake of children, and remain financially solvent. It is only the hard work and dedication of the staff that keeps us as one of the highly recommended preschools in the borough. As stated our financial position remains very good and we have been able to increase our reserves and will continue to do so over the coming year. The building we are in still needs repairs doing. and although we have paid for some of these ourselves. they are the responsibility of the landlord, 23rd Chingford Scout Group, who are themselves a registered Charity number 303859, they have a full self repairing lease with the London Borough of Waltharn Forest. However, we are unable to get confirmation of how long the lease is. We are always looking for new, unshared premises but there is a lack of building available in the area.
We are due an Ofsted inspection at any time, and although the EfFS has changed we feel that we are ready for the day they come. This is a brief report as I would like to turn to you for questions and suggestions that you may have before we elect a new committee. Thank You
