Following a long work has made to the drawn out suspension and disciplinary circumstances of its process of our manager, we hired in beneficiaries and any house and promoted a supervisor. wider benefits to society as a whole. The new manager is now finding her feet and we’ve managed to get back up to appropriate levels of staffing for the setting after being severely understaffed. We have invested in new equipment for the children including scooters and safety equipment for use by the older children. We have joined an HR company who offer advice and material for a monthly fee in order to fill gaps within the committee. OSCARS is now also registered as a CIO with Charities Commission and the Committee is in the process of registering this entity with OFSTED. This was put on hold following our issues with Oscars management on the advice of Ofsted due to the many changes we had to make. We hope to continue with the process this year to transition over to these CIO governance structures. **Priorities for 2022** We are still drafting a 5 year business plan for OSCARS which will set out its strategic objectives and will incorporate plans to make improvements to the Building and eventually for a replacement new building. This year we will be investigating funding to make the Oscars building more environmentally friendly and efficient as well as towards a full building replacement. A revised Diocese agreement between OSCARS and FCCE Governors was signed maintaining access for OSCARS to use its current grounds and building in co-operation with the School. OSCARS committee will hold fundraising events during the year to continue to help cover our contribution to the renovation of the Bark Area play equipment. ## **Additional information (optional)** You may choose to include further statements where relevant about: |Achievements against

following the pandemic although we are still
lower on playscheme numbers than
previously.
**Expenditure**. Expenditure rose to
£120,701 mainly due to an increase in
staffing to meet the needs of Oscars
A net surplus of £1,725 was recorded for
FY 2020- 21.
The cash position at OSCARS has
improved during 2021-22 as child
numbers have recovered slowly during the
year and fee income has improved and
become more stable.
We are hopeful that 2022-23 will increase
our surplus slightly although with rising
energy costs we feel this will be modest.| |Statement explaining
