We have 14 children aged between 2 and 3 years, occupying the 'Teddies Room, -some of which access funded sessions and some access non-funded sessions. There are a further 51 pre-schoolers in our 'Bears Room, and all of whom access a combination of funded and none funded sessions. The remaining children attend our Wraparound provision.

Measures used to assess performance: We have continued to increased our numbers which means we can offer more places to the children in our community. We have kept are fee prices low to ensure children from lower income families can also access our services. This means more children benefit from the care and education we provide.
