Treasurer report

The pass year has been challenging, there is now a higher demand for two year old children spaces and those with additional need. As many of the spaces were taken by those children present with additional needs the safe decision that there would be a lower number of admissions to make sure all children’s needs were met safely, this reflected in the grants received. Staff found that these children with complex needs required more paper work resulting in extra hours being worked. Committee are trying to secure some SEN funding for additional members of staff but this is proving difficult to secure because of the need for the evidence and parental consent.

Paper work has increase Sally Taking point on EHCP’S and Patricia taking point on 2 year olds.
