## Treasurer’s Report 14th May 2024 

## 2023-2024 

Attached is the Year to Date (YTD) summary of the accounts for the school year starting the 1[st] September 2023 and ending on the 31[st] of August 2024. 

The first term saw a loss of £3,362.87, but the second term ended in a profit of £56,059.96. To date the third term is currently at a loss of £705.96. The overall profit of this school year currently sits at £51,991.12 equating to funds available of £99,158.68. 

Since the previous Report in January the Treasurer has attempted to forecast income for the next financial year and this has allowed a pay increase to staff of 10.46% on average. The new wages are forecasted to be 55% of income, a decrease of 15.24% from the previous year. 

While things look positive, the treasurer has some recommendations, these are detailed below. 

- H.C. Council charged a 24/25 yearly Property Service charge of £1,999. It was noted by Megham Infant School’s Office Manager that a fee had not been charged between 2020 and 2022. In addition, she provided an overview of the SLA. Based on this the treasurer believes the following challenges should be made. 

   - SLA for Schools brief is worded as an optional expenditure, similar to insurance, if Mengham infants School has taken the decision to enter this agreement they should not charge the pre-school for this. 

   - If they were to charge, it must be an agreed and documented figure. The pre-school should know the overall cost to Mengham Infant School, the percentage that the pre-school is paying and how the percentage was determined. 

   - It could be argued that this fee is already covered in the rent paid. 

- Utility bills – how are the charges to the pre-school determined. If the pre-school has its own Gas & Electricity meters, you have the right to enter an agreement with a supplier of your choice and not pay via the school. 

   - If this is not the case, how the costs are determined must be shared with the preschool and reviewed. 

   - The above applies to Water and Sewage costs. 

- Nappy bin – The school is now charging £25 per month for the use a nappy bin, they have advised it costs them £33 per month. How have they determined £25? If they need one as well as the preschool it should be 50/50 regardless of the usage. 

- Refuse bin – Charge of £7.50, how is this determined? Is it per individual bin or as a percentage of the overall cost. 

- PAT Testing – could the pre-school do this independently?
