BARNETT WOOD PRE SCHOOL
TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2025
The trustees present their annual report and financial statements for the year ended 31 August 2025.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the financial statements and comply with the charity's governing document, the Companies Act 2006 and "Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019)".
Objectives and activities
The pre-school's objectives are to enhance the development and education of children under statutory school age. The policies adopted in furtherance of these objects are to operate a pre-school and there has been no change in these during the year.
Public benefit
The trustees have paid due regard to guidance on public benefit issued by the Charity Commission in deciding what activities they should undertake.
Achievements and performance
Significant activities and achievements against objectives
The trustees, management and staff have once again worked tirelessly to ensure we provide an excellent level of care, early learning and development for all the children attending our setting.
We have worked, through frequent changes in government guidance, in particular the new regulations around the charging and transparency costs to parents which were announced in February 2025. The setting continues to offer Working Parent Entitlement in the most flexible way that it can for parents, ensuring that parents receive the best value for money they can.
The setting continues to work with Surrey County Council's Early Years team, ensuring that all our practitioners are following the latest techniques and guidelines. In addition, the setting continues to work with local schools to ensure a smooth transition for the children to their new setting.
Once again, the setting has identified high numbers of children with Special Educational Needs during this period and has worked with families and professionals to ensure that the needs of these children are met and that, where applicable, the children move to their next setting with the necessary support plans in place.
The setting is fortunate to receive an excellent level of support and engagement from parents who have children at the preschool. This continues to create a positive partnership to support the continuing development of all children at the setting.
Financial review
Incoming resources amounted to £397,636 for the year (2024: £363,729), which results in a surplus of £26,731 (2024: £26,495). Once again, the setting had high levels of fundraising and grant funding which contributed to this surplus.
Designated reserves carried forward are £57,368 (2024: £57.938).
Unrestricted reserves carried forward amount to £184,508 (2023: £153,207).

BARNETT WOOD PRE SCHOOL
TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2025
Reserves policy
The trustees' current reserves policy is to maintain sufficient financial reserves which are no less than 6 months' worth of running costs. However, operating in excess of this is considered prudent at this time when considering the increased costs and uncertainty over the impact that the new Working Parent Entitlement will have on the setting's overall finances.
The charity's principal source of income is from Surrey County Council in the form of grants for children within the funding bracket for Early Years funding, together with fees from parents not covered by council funding. Fees are invoiced termly.
In recent years the increase to National Living Wage and energy prices have not been entirely mitigated by increases in the funding received from Surrey County Council. Therefore, to ensure the continued viability of the setting. we have no option but to ask charge funded children a 'sustainability fee' to cover the cost of consumables as well as holding fundraising events in order to ensure that we can continue to offer the high level of childcare and the variety of activities that we have done in the past. Further increases in the National Living Wage and employer's National Insurance rates will continue to impact the setting's finances.
Major risks
The trustees have assessed the major risks to which the pre-school is exposed, and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate exposure to these.
Plans for future periods
The preschool continues to work from a very sound financial foundation which will provide us with the opportunity to assess how we can improve our facilities and resources to further enhance our early years aims and ambitions.
During the year 2024-2025 the setting has undertaken extensive maintenance work to the building from which it operates, including replacement of the floor and subfloor (due to undulations following a flood in 2019), and replacement of the internal bifold doors which had reached the end of their life. The setting is also exploring the feasibility of installing solar panels on its roof, to improve its environmental sustainability and mitigate day-to-day running costs through lower energy bills.
The preschool directors are committed to ensuring that staff members receive the training and support they need to fulfill their role within the setting.
Structure, governance and management
The charity is a company limited by guarantee.
The trustees, who are also the directors for the purpose of company law, and who served during the year and up to the date of signature of the financial statements were:
Mr M L Tiley (Chair)
Mrs E J Deighton (Employee and Parent Liaison/Health & Safety)
Mrs S M Leyland (Curriculum and Inspection)
Recruitment and appointment of trustees
The formal process for appointment of trustees is set out in section 5 of the Articles of Association.
None of the trustees has any beneficial interest in the company. All of the trustees are members of the company and guarantee to contribute £1 in the event of a winding up. New trustees are invited for a tour of the premises and talk to a director about the ethos of the Pre-School and how it runs.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT
TO THE TRUSTEES OF BARNETT WOOD PRE SCHOOL
I report to the trustees on my examination of the financial statements of Barnett Wood Pre School (the charity) for the year ended 31 August 2025.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the trustees of the charity (and also its directors for the purposes of company law), you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.
Having satisfied myself that the financial statements of the charity are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006 and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of the charity's financial statements carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011. In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act 2011.
Independent examiner's statement
Since the charity's gross income exceeded £250,000, the independent examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the Charities Act 2011. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants, which is one of the listed bodies.
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
-
1 accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 386 of the Companies Act 2006.
-
2 the financial statements do not accord with those records; or
-
3 the financial statements do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 other than any requirement that the financial statements give a true and fair view, which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or
-
4 the financial statements have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities applicable to charities preparing their financial statements in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102).
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the financial statements to be reached.

The charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.
The charity has taken advantage of the provisions in the SORP for charities applying FRS 102 Update Bulletin 1 not to prepare a Statement of Cash Flows.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.
- 1.2. Going concern
At the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.
- 1.3 Charitable funds
Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives.
Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors or grantors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements.
Endowment funds are subject to specific conditions by donors that the capital must be maintained by the charity.
1.4 Income Income is recognised when the charity is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received.
Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the charity has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.
Legacies are recognised on receipt or otherwise if the charity has been notified of an impending distribution, the amount is known, and receipt is expected. If the amount is not known, the legacy is treated as a contingent asset.

a] Accounting policies
(Continued)
1.6 Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.
Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:
Buildings 10 years straight line Fixtures, fittings & equipment 3 years straight line, 5 years straight line Computers 3 years straight line
The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in the statement of financial activities.
1.7 Impairment of fixed assets
At each reporting end date, the charity reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. if any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any).
- 1.8 Stocks
Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. Cost comprises direct materials and, where applicable, direct Jabour costs and those overheads that have been incurred in bringing the stocks to their present location and condition. Items held for distribution at no or nominal consideration are measured the lower of replacement cost and cost.
Net realisable value is the estimated selling price Jess all estimated costs of completion and costs to be incurred in marketing, selling and distribution.
1.9 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current fiabilities.
1.10 Financial instruments
The charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.
Financial instruments are recagnised in the charity's balance sheet when the charity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Basic financial assets
Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently measured at the cash or other consideration expected to be received and not discounted.

- 1.14 Creditors
Creditors are recognised where the charity has a present obligation arising from a past event and the amount can be reliably measured or estimated.
2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements
In the application of the charity's accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
