Poperinghe Pre School

AWS Community Complex, Princess Marina Drive, Arborfield, Berkshire, RG2 9NN   0118 976 2427poperinghe@weycp.org.uk

Trustee Report – AGM 28[th] November 2024

The Financial year ran from 1[st] September 2023 to 31[st] August 2024

At the end of the period the pre-school came in on budget with a small profit of £752.

With the rise in the living wage, and the increased cost in consumables and utility bills this profit was only made possible due to an increase in funding rates and the new 15 hours of funding being offered to 2 year olds with working parents from April 2024.

The funding rate increased (per attended hour) from £5.80 to £6.03 for 3 and 4 year in April, and 2yr olds (of working families eligible to claim) were funded at a rate of £8.68.

The other significant variances to budget were an overspend on salaries due to the living wage increase as stated above, and employers national insurance totalling 7K due to bank staff being used for additional 2 year olds from April 24. The rise in utility bills amounted to £4.4K overspend as a result of an unexpected increase to market rates. A full breakdown of finances can be seen on the balance sheet.

Independent examiner’s report to the Trustees of Poperinghe Pre School

I report on the accounts of the Charity for the period ended 31 August 2024, which includes the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, and the notes to the accounts.

Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner

The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed. It is my responsibility to:

• examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act;

• to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act; and

Basis of independent examiner’s report

My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and the seeking of explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently, no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair view’ and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.

Independent examiner’s statement

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the requirements:

• to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act; and

• to prepare accounts which accord with those records and to comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act

have not been met.

Independent examiner’s report to the Trustees of Poperinghe Pre School

I report on the accounts of the Charity for the period ended 31 August 2024, which includes the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, and the notes to the accounts.

Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner

The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed. It is my responsibility to:

• examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act;

• to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act; and

Basis of independent examiner’s report

My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and the seeking of explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently, no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair view’ and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.

Independent examiner’s statement

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the requirements:

• to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act; and

• to prepare accounts which accord with those records and to comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act

have not been met.
