Trustees Report Year End 2025

Following the previous years discussions with the academic trust, whom we rented our classroom from, we had to make a decision to close Broomley Pre-school and make our staff redundant. Our reasons for this are that we were offered no security over a lease to offer us protection and ownership of our own pre-school setting. The costs that were to be imposed to us were significantly higher and low birth rate numbers forecasted for the next few years ahead would have seen us in a negative financial position within a matter of years. The trust also wanted us to accept 9 month olds and upwards which would have changed staff ratio and costs.

I personally met with each staff member and discussed our options. We were all in favour and understanding to close the preschool and accept a redundancy payout. One staff member offered to resign and seek employment elsewhere for their own financial security.

We focused on selling and donating our resources and did regular checks on our staff welfare, especially as one member was pregnant. We did not make any efforts to fundraise during this financial period.

As we were closing on July 18[th] 2025, we had to arrange for a member of staff to receive their statutory maternity pay in a lump sum, which we then had to claim back from HMRC. This delayed our ability to make redundancy payments immediately upon closure, However, in the November staff were contacted and it was mutually agreed that they would be receive one payment in December 2025 and enhanced payments in February once all monies had been claimed. This will explain why there was still a significant amount of money left in the account at the end of this academic year.

It has been a pleasure to be chairperson of such a wonderful and Ofsted graded outstanding charity, but now its tome for pastures new.

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Broomley Pre School

We report on the accounts for the Charity "Broomley Pre School"; Registered Charity Number 1069127, for the year ended 31st August 2025.

The financial information set out in these accounts complies with all current statutory requirements, the memorandum of association and the Statement of Recommended Practice - Accounting and Reporting by Charities.

Respective Responsibilities of The Trustees and The Independent Examiner

As the charities trustees you are responsible for keeping accurate financial records which at any given point would disclose with reasonable accuracy the financial position of the Charity and that those records would enable you to comply with the Charities Act 2011 in producing financial statements.

The charities trustees are also responsible for the safeguarding of any assets of the Charity and hence take reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

As the charities trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts which make up this report; you consider that the audit requirement of section 43(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (The Act) does not apply. It is our responsibility to state, on the basis of procedures identified and specified in the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners under section 43(7)(b) of the Act; whether particular matters have come to our attention.

Basis of Independent Examiners Report

This examination has been carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners. An examination includes a review of Accounting Records kept by the Charity and a comparison of the accounts presented within those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking 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 as a consequence we can not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts.

Independent Examiners Statement

In connection with the independent examination of the records and accounts of the Charity: Broomley Pre School, no matter has come to our attention:

  1. Which gives us reasonable cause to believe that any material respect, the requirement to keep accounting records in accordance with Section 41 of The Act; and to prepare the accounts which accord with the accounting records and to comply with the accounting requirements of The Act have not been met or;

  2. which, in our opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
