Financial Review As can be seen through the Annual Accounts registered, the value of Grants has increased from previous years and remains an essential requirement for the running of the Pre-school. Whilst Employment costs are of course the largest item of expenditure, our efforts have also been drawn to the importance of strengthening general aspects of the Pre-school'sinfrastructure,. in terms ofthe quality of equipmentand overall improvements, that will furtherraise the value of the Pre-school's role in the community it seNes. The work of improving infrastructure was started in 200819 and continued in 202012021. Careful planning and good practice all across the board hasalso ensured thatall costs were covered by the grants and fees, in a balanced drive to furthersecure the future of the Pre-school.

Staff raised to the challenge and facing enormous stress every day to remain open and provide care and support every child's needs. The pre-school remained opened without closing at all. It remains to say that the Strict cleaning processes to keep everyone as safe as possible seemed to have worked. Our pre-school had 53 children ranging from two years of age to four-and-a-half-year-olds, from various backgrounds. Of those children, 26 were of pre-school age, 19 had English as an additional language. The pre-school had 9 children on initial assessments and made 5 referrals to Portage, 4 children on high neIS funding, 5 children on extra targets. We had several professionals supporting the multiple additional needs of the children and theirfamilies on a regularbasis. Meetings took place via telephone and at a safe distancewearing masks. Pre-school agreed to stop University and College studentsfrom attending oursetting dueto safety for staff an d ch ildren.
