SEN numbers continue to grow.
Leaders Report
In July we said goodbye to Jenny as manager of the nursery, she had a lovely day pf partying at nursery with a surprises party in the afternoon wih lots of faces from the past returning to share their well wishes.
We continue to have a high level of SEN in the nursery and we are working with the local authority to make sure we are accessing the support (both financially and holistically) and providing the care that is needed.the number
of children still awaiting paediatric assessment is still high and the local Health Authority are planning the recruitment of a new paediatrician, speech and language therapists and educational psychologist. In response to the increasing numbers, we will continue to employ 1:1 supports where needed.
Patrea thanks everyone for their support since she had taken over the management of the nursery and for everyone taking n the changes she had implemented over the summer holidays.
Myra has been suffering with some health issue lately and she feels now is the time to pass the chairperson role onto someone else once the CIO transition has been completed. We thank her for her hard work and commitment to nursery and we wish her well.
Julia has recently been diagnosed as partially sighted with her sight not expected to improve but to deteriorate so has also decided to hand over her committee space to someone new.
Becky left us in October to go to work at Fosseway to expand her knowledge and understand of SEN and we wish her well.
We are still awaiting an inspection from Ofsted as our last one was in 2017 but we feel we are all prepared for when they come.

TEDDY BEAR NURSERY
Year Ending 31 July 2023
There was a profit of £4767.49 this year which has turned around the trend for the past couple of years.
Costs of overheads have increased however, there has been an increase in the number of families accessing the 30 hour working family entitlement which has helped to counteract this slightly.
The next financial year may prove difficult if overheads continue to rise but nursery will need to make adjustments as they go to help minimise the impact.
