## **ANNUAL REPORT 2020-21** 



HIGH QUALITY EDUCATION & CHILDCARE FOR EACH INDIVIDUAL CHILD 

**www.watotopreschool.org.uk** 




## **THE CHAIRS' STATEMENT** 

Except for the two weeks, we are proud to have been one of those settings in the area to have remained open to children throughout. 

The most significant event in the financial year has clearly been the impact of COVID19 and the subsequent lockdowns and complex guidance issued by government. This has been a difficult time for staff and families, and we are extremely proud of how well our team has risen to the challenges while dealing with their own family life during the lockdown. 

We are fortunate as Trustees to have been able to fully support our leadership team in ensuring swift and decisive actions since March 2020. Initially, Department of Education, Government and Local Authority updates and guidance changed on what seemed like an hourly basis. Action plans and risks assessments, policy updates were done at lightning speed and at unsocial hours. 


2020 has been a year of uncertainty for many during the pandemic and Watoto PreSchool has provided essential support to families as they adjust back into work and education, during these unprecedented conditions. 

We have adjusted how we do some things and incorporated Government Guidelines surrounding Covid-19 into daily working practices to ensure the preschool is a safe environment for everyone. These guidelines are closely monitored with procedures adapted accordingly. 



## **OUR MANAGER'S STATEMENT** 

Reflecting on the events of the past year preschool like other settings were profoundly tested in 2020-21. The COVID-19 pandemic demanded we respond, innovate and pivot, in recognition that children, families and early learning professionals were facing daunting challenges. What a year!! 

Many hero’s emerged from the pandemic including our dedicated  team who did not waiver when children and their families needed them. Our children did an amazing job adjusting to the new ways of doing things. 

Covid-19 impacted our preschool life, we have had to work together to provide the best possible early education and childcare for our children with the everchanging restrictions imposed on us. This could not have been achieved without the fantastic support and understanding we have received from our parents and carers. Our parents were rock stars this past year being understanding and patience. 


It has been a year of change as a few staff members moved onto pastures new and the team welcomed new employees with open arms, to begin their Watoto preschool journey.

WHO ARE<br>WE ?<br>**----- End of picture text -----**<br>


Watoto Preschool’s provide 56 FTE early education and childcare places for children aged 6 months to 5 years We are open Monday – Friday between 8am - 6pm weekdays. Ofsted rates our PreSchool GOOD (2017) 

Watoto PreSchool established by local parents who had a vision to create a centre of excellence, providing exceptional services delivered in a ‘home from home’ environment with an inclusive approach. 

Watoto PreSchool has gone from strength to strength since we first open the doors in 1996 becoming a substantial organisation employing staff and managing an important early year’s provision in the Burngreave area of Sheffield. 


We have over 20 years’ experience of managing integrated preschool education and childcare services. Over the years, we have built a reputation, as a provider of excellence, catering for the specialist needs of a wide range of children in our locality and beyond. 



## **Board of Trustees** 

Watoto Pre-School is an incorporated charity. This means that the organisation is both a charity and a legal entity. The trustees are jointly responsible for the effective running of the charity and making decisions regarding its management in  order to further its charitable purposes. The trustees have an overriding duty to  act lawfully and in the best interests of the charity. 

The Board of Trustees of Watoto PreSchool has overall responsibility for the management of the preschool to ensure children thrive, feel safe and secure in a stimulating and happy environment 


## **The  Vision** 

# “High Quality Education & Childcare for Each Individual Child” 


## **Our Promise to Parent Carers** 

- To provide a welcoming, homely, caring and personalised service 

- To continue to deliver the Early Years Foundation Stage curriculum that effectively supports children’s learning and development 

- To deliver a quality service that exceeds Ofsted standards 

- To provide a professional service that is inclusive, affordable and accessible to all 

- To ensure your child has lots of fun 

- To provide a safe and secure environment 

- To welcome and respect different cultures and languages, and to embrace the positive contributions diversity makes to the development of each child. 



## **KEY ACHIEVEMENTS** 

**Covid 19 Pandemic** …. Despite the unexpected and disruptive aspects over 2020-21 the preschool leadership drive and passion to continue to ensure the delivery of high-quality education and childcare for each individual child. 

This level of commitment led by the leadership team was exemplified during the Covid19 pandemic with the exceptional support provided for children, their parent carers and not forgetting our staff team. The trustees are knowledgeable about the preschool through regular visits, monitoring and meetings which continued despite the pandemic. 

Our staff team are superheroes, maintaining a quality service whilst being anxious about the pandemic and the safety of their own families. We could not have sustained the quality of service without the dedication and perseverance of the staff team. 

**Covid 19 Pandemic Special Measures** …there were specific measures (DfE Guidelines) that had to be carried out to ensure the safety of children still attending preschool and preschool staff. Some of these required trustee oversight, and outcomes were communicated to all committee members. 

- reviewing and signing off of Covid 19 specific risk assessments to ensure that all safety and infection control measures were in place – completed by the Manager and Chairperson. reviewing and signing off new Covid 19 specific addendum to the preschool Child Protection Safeguarding Policy to ensure that protection measures were in place – completed Manager and by Chairperson 

- discussions with the manager about specific communications to parent carers, related to the isolation, bubbles, home activities for example, – completed by the Manager and Chairperson 




**Home Activity Packs....** For those children parent carers choose to keep at home through the pandemic we created activity packs aimed at parent cares supporting children with a rich and varied range of learning opportunities at home. 

We wanted to promote the sharing of quality time between children and their parent whilst also supporting children’s educational enrichment and continue the nurturing of their love for learning. 

We sent out the packs throughout the lockdown. This was complimented by staff contacting families via phone to check how things were going and offer advice if requested. 


**Baby Unit....** we revamped and relaunched t and through word of month and social media the numbers have grown steadily despite COVID 19. We also have a number of babies on the waiting list to start in September. 






## **Continuous Professional Development (CPD)…** 

All staff are encouraged to participate in CPD to develop and update their knowledge and skills to enhance children’s learning in preschool. During the past year staff have completed various courses and training to develop their expertise in: 

- In the moment planning / curiosity approach 

   - Safeguarding 

   - PREVENT 

   - Health & Safety 

   - Fire Safety Food Safety Manual Handling Covid 19 

- New EYFS and Ofsted framework 

- Attention to Watoto (speech and language programme) 

## Investing in people 

- Working with babies. 

Also all new staff, as part of their inductions and existing staff members completed and refreshed  the following training course: 

## **New Management System** 

The implementation of new software (Connect Childcare) as part of the drive to digitalise and integrate areas across the preschool…. overall aim has been to improve efficiency, remove duplication, reduce costs and improve internal and external communication across all the following areas: 

- information management and storage 

- daily tasks and administrative processes 

- internal and external communication tool 

The impact on the preschool’s administration functions was the removal of many manual tasks. The committee carried out the required change which resulted in one staff redundancy. 




## **KEY CHALLENGES** 

**COVID 19,** It goes without saying this has been the biggest challenge we have ever faced. This has been a difficult time for staff and families, and we are extremely proud of how well our team has risen to the challenges presented and continued to deliver a quality service despite the difficulties faced by the nation. The biggest 

challenge was keeping up to with updates and the many changes coming from the Government. 

**Watoto PreSchool Rotherham,** unfortunately the committee took the decision to close the preschool during the first lock down July 2020, as a result of the COVID pandemic and the low numbers. The forecasted increased sign up did not materialise for the autumn term 2020. 

**Wellbeing & Moral:** staff wellbeing and the moral in the team was a big challenge it was a strain for everyone dealing with the unknown, the stresses and anxiety this causes, we are only human., everyone including the committee, the leadership team. staff team, parents even our children have been troopers, adapting and learning new routines and how we do things in preschool during these exceptional times. 

'Our ability to handle life's challenges is a measure of our 

strength of character'. 

Les Brown 




## **CHILDCARE FEES** 


**----- Start of picture text -----**<br>
75%<br>**----- End of picture text -----**<br>


The re launch of the preschool baby room and holiday playcare services have contributed to this significantly. 

Increase in the number of fee paying parent carers 

## **OCCUPANCY** 

**-35%** 


**----- Start of picture text -----**<br>
Decrease in occupancy levels<br>over the year<br>**----- End of picture text -----**<br>


The reduced occupancy level compared to previous years is the result of COVID 19 where parent carers choose to keep children at home. 

## **HOLIDAY PLAYCARE** 

**47%** 

We had an increase in numbers attending the summer play  scheme aimed at supporting key worker children. 

Decrease in occupancy levels over the year 




## **THE FUTURE** 

For 2021-22 we have five key development areas of focus. These are as follows: 

## **PreSchool Curriculum** 

- For September 2021 get everyone up to speed with the changes being made to the DFE Early Years Foundation framework. 

- Ensure all staff are aware of the revised Ofsted framework. 

- Fully embed the in the moment / curiosity approach into everyday practice.. 

## **Staff Team** 

- Revise preschool continuous professional development framework. 

- Wellbeing of employees review to ensure the preschool is doing everything that’s reasonably within the reach of the preschool. 

## **ECO Friendly** 

- Saving the planet is a massive issue for everyone we want to look at what we can do as a preschool to ensure that our world is sustainable and fit for future. The particular focus for the coming year will be our use of plastic in preschool. How can we use less!! 

## **Management Online System.** 

- ·Review and ensure the greater efficiencies and improved communications materialises in practice. 

## **Marketing** 

Build on and utilise the various social media platforms to promote and show case the preschool. As well as improving communication and building relationships between current parents, the wider community and create interest from new parent carers looking for a preschool that is engaging and actively sharing daily activities. 

- A new preschool web site 

- Create preschool blog 




## Everyone for supporting the preschool. 

A special thank you to our parent carers, we so appreciate your patience and understanding during this last year of real challenge.
