Total operating Income of £121,441 was very slightly down on £121,580 from 2023-24.
Early Years funded income (grants) was 4.2% less than prior year, however, income from parents for unfunded hours increased 33.6% on the prior year.
Interest income received increased as result reserves being invested for of a full 12 months in higher interest accounts.
