Annual Trustees Report for Peter Pan Pre-School Charity No: 1122507 EY358316
Fleckney Village Hall, 2 The Parade, Fleckney Leics LE8 8AY
Report prepared April 2026 for the period 1[st] September 2024 - 31[st] August 2025
Head of Trustees: Father Philip O’Reilly Manager of Peter Pan Pre-School: Rachel Skinner
Peter Pan Pre-School caters for preschool children aged 2-4 years of age, with its main aim to teach the children, socialise them and prepare them to start school and be wholly ready for this. As well as this, any special educational needs that the child is suspected to have are addressed and any additional assistance and support is put in place ( EHCP applied for), ready for when they start school.
The premises we rent out is used for other purposes on a Thursday morning but we are open 4 days a week. All staff are on minimum legal wage with the manager on £2 more than this per hour because of significant extra duties and responsibility. We have an average of 15-20 children attending in the morning with 12 -14 of these staying all day. We have not had an Ofsted inspection in the last 4 years but continue to strive to improve and develop. All staff are qualified to a minimum of NVQ level 2 in childcare and development or equivalent and 3 members of staff are qualified to level 3.
Peter Pan continues to take part in various community activities such as the Christmas Tree festival and going to the local church for our own small service once a term. We also go on small local visits such as to the local school to watch their productions, visit to the local Greengrocer, as well as to the local vicar’s garden for our annual teddy bears picnic
Our aim for the future is to continue to provide a high level of care and education for our children and to continue to increase the numbers of children we admit to keep the preschool sustainable for the future, especially with the introduction of the extended Early Years Funding.
We would very much like to thank the Fleckney Village Hall Committee for their continued support and for giving us a reduced rent.
Rachel Skinner Manager.
Independent Examiner’s Report to the Trustees of Peter Pan Pre-School
I report on the accounts of the Peter Pan Pre-School Fleckney for the year ended 31[st] August 2025
Respective Responsibilities of the Trustees and the Examiner
The charity’s trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The trustees consider that an audit of the accounts is not required for this year under the relevant Charities Act and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
-
Examine the accounts under the Charities Act
-
To state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of Independent Examiner’s Report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the general directions given by the Charity Commission. It included a review of the accounting records kept by the charity [such as the cash book, bank statements, details of wages paid, invoices and receipts for expenses incurred] and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. A sample of entries in the documents presented to me were cross-checked against the cash book entries and relevant bank statements. It also included consideration of any unusual terms or disclosures in the accounts and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required for an audit and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair view’. The report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent Examiner’s Statement
I have completed my examination in accordance with the Charities Act and confirm that there is nothing contained in the Financial Records of the Peter Pan Pre-School Charity No: 1122507 that gives me cause to believe that the information now presented to me is incomplete or inaccurate. There were no matters that required further explanation from the trustees.
