At the start of the finanoal year of September 2020 the bank acc(xuts we k¥oking very healthy
and V￿re as follo￿:.
Current Account

Reserve Account
£40,012.66
Partnership Account
£1,089.95
We set a budget of £84.[￿XI for income through fees and despite the effects of the national lockdovms in
November 2020 and January to March 2021 we managed to have an income of £102.000.46. This was
largely due to the fact that even thou8h some parents chose to keep their children away from pre-school
during the national lockdowns, we still managed to get the funded income of E69.908.40 from the
government. Other fees bou8ht in £28,460.68. We also received income of £2,246.28 in donations, fund
raising, and a grant of £1.{￿ from Tesco. We did not need to utilise any fundingfrom the furfough scheme
during the national lockdowns.
The expenditure costs for theyearwere £98.856.37 which was slightlyoverthe agreed budget of £95.575.
The majority ol the expenditure costs were for stsffing and we were able to maintsin the staffing level at
5 members throughout the national lockdowns in 2020-2021. During the national lockdovms, pre-school
remained open and we were able to maintain the salaries of all staff due to the income of the pre-school
being largely unafferted by the lockdowns. Fees for some children were reduted during the national
lockdowns when parents chose to keep their children at home. however. the irnmense generosity of some
parents meant that the full fees wefe paid with the additional amounts as a donation to pre-school.
Stsffing costs did increase throughout the year due to pay rises and adjustments to the minimum wage
but this was all covered by the income to the pre-school. The pension costs also increased due to the
statutory commitments that we have for the pensions and with the increase staff wages.

We had planned in 2019 to use a large portion of the reserve account money to update the classrooms
but this was put on-hold to ensure that the reserve attount was available to support any impact of the
national lockdowns. Whilst this remained true in 2020, some funds were spent on updating the outside
area to remove the sandpit which could not be used due to COVIt>19. This ensured that the children
were able to use the sandpit space for alternative activities.
The dosing amounts for the financial year September 2020-August 2021 was:
Current Account:
£ 3.383.53
Reserve Account:
£47.CK12.48
Partnership Account: £ 1.039.95
Hnandal Year Sept 2021- Aug 2022
With the uncertainty surrounding COVID-19 still in place. we have decided to apply a conseplative income
budget for 2021. Pupil numbers are s1i8htly less than 2020 which will reduce the government fundin8
along with additional fees. Whilst this is likeby to resolve itself. we have decided that the income budget
for the next financial year will need to be lowered for the time being. We have set this as £85.OfyJ but are
anticipating that as long as the preschool is able to stay open and will not be limited to the number of
children who can attend the setting that this is a conservative amount and it should be quite a bit more.
We still have an expenditure set of around £96,OthJ1£80.5cKI of this being Staff costs) and so working on
these figures we will have a deficit of £ll.000 and so will need to keep the costs down as much as possible
if the worst should happen and would need to use the money in the reserve accounL It will 0150 be a
difficult time for fundraising but it would be good to think of some things were could do to raise money
during these difficult times.
