**Commission on public**
**benefit)**||The Village Pre-School key objectives are the development and
education of pre-school children, 2+. It works for the benefit of the public,
specifically the local residents surrounding the Pre-School. Care and
safety of the children is of utmost importance to the Pre-School, as well
as establishing an understanding of health and well-being through sport
and nutrition. The Pre-School provides social activities on site for the
parents and families to create a inclusive and supportive community for
all of the users. Outside of the pupils, the Pre-School provides
development and training to the team to further the aims of the EYFS.| |---|---|---| |||Main Purpose- The Village Pre-School aims to:
●Provide high quality care and education for children below
statutory school age
●Work in partnership with parents to help children to learn and
develop
●Add to the life and well-being of its local community
●Offer children and their parents a service which promotes equality
and values diversity
The Pre-School does this by running sessions from 09.00am – 12 noon
and 12 noon – 3.00pm, Monday to Friday over 38 weeks.
Due to Covid-19 and restrictions in place we have not been able to offer
any additional sessions such as breakfast and after school club.
We have space for 35 3-Year olds but sessions are usually a mix of 2-4
Year olds. As a result, we normally have 25-30 children attend each
session, admission to pre-school is based on date of birth and priority
given to older children. From September 2020 we still had children in
bubbles and promoted more outdoor sessions to reduce the spread in
covid-19, and to promote more outdoor learning which also benefits the
children.
The Pre-School is fully inclusive and has several children with additional
needs on roll. Children are helped to settle in by being assigned a Key
person who also makes a ‘Learning Journal’ Profile book with
observations and photos of their Key Children which is shared with
parents online with a platform we have started to use called Tapestry.
**The Village Pre-School works for the public benefit by having as its**
**objectives the development and education of pre-school children.**
**The trustees have regard to the guidance on the public benefit**
**issued by the Charity Commission.**| ## **Additional details of objectives and activities (Optional information)** **TAR** May 2022 3 DocuSign Envelope ID: 7D32802E-D798-453C-B6E6-7B8191FF18E9 You **may choose** to include further statements, where relevant, about: - policy on grant making; - policy programme related investment; - contribution made by volunteers. ## Section D Achievements and performance **TAR** May 2022 4 DocuSign Envelope ID: 7D32802E-D798-453C-B6E6-7B8191FF18E9 |Section D|Achievements andperformance| |---|---| |**Summary of the main**
**achievements of the charity**
**during the year**|Everything is running smoothly with pre-school staff members and the senior
management of the club with our current opening times;
Days are now 09.00am – 3.00pm (term time)
Website, social media and good word of mouth has helped us to maintain a
steady number of families using our services at the setting, with a healthy
waiting list.
We recruited Sofia Alves one of our students after a successful period spent with
us during her Level 3 Early Years Practitioner placement as a temporary
member of staff with the guarantee of going onto a permanent contract
September 2021
Beth Aggus acted as Head of Preschool in the absence of Kelly Girling who was
on Maternity Leave and Kelly Girling returned in July 2021
Uzma Shuya acted as Deputy in the absence of Marcella Balind who was on
Maternity Leave.
Marcella Balind resigned from The Village Preschool E17.
The Covid Pandemic continued to impact the setting with the number of children
in attendance lower than previous years. Despite the challenges of the ongoing
Pandemic the Preschool remained open throughout the academic year with.
New processes were implemented on an ongoing basis to meet the
requirements such as adapting the setting’s arrival and departure processes and
having the children outside as much as possible.
**Special Needs –**We continue to cater for children with special needs, with
continued support from the area Senco throughout the year.
**Forest School –**Forest school sessions continued on a Wednesday morning
whatever the weather, our forest school leader Beth has supported staff to
encourage them to develop an interest of outdoor surroundings which in turn has
benefited the children. We also made a decision to follow this ethos throughout
covid-19 encouraging as much time outdoors as possible. It’s a very popular
session, so much that we are now discussing additional days for the future and
have discussed talks about training another member of staff Indra to be trained
at Level 3, potentially to take place in September 2021.
**Outings –**Summer trip was unfortunately cancelled due to the uncertainty of the
rising cases of covid.
**Extra Curriculum –**Weekly we had Petite Productions in to do extra curriculum
singing, acting and dancing with the children on a Thursday morning for an hour,
we as the pre school covered the cost of this and from September 2021 we will
start to charge the parents/carers a fee of £1.50 to cover the cost of this session.
**Events –**At the end of the summer term we were able to hold a summer fun
day, we didn’t make any money from this but as a thank you to all of the parents
for the support during the pandemic.
**Staff Training –**Staff continue to use noodle online training, we also had
everyone do first aid training in March 2021.
15/ 30 Hour Funding continued. Some parents now pay their fees using tax-free
childcare and others continue to use childcare vouchers.| **TAR** May 2022 5 DocuSign Envelope ID: 7D32802E-D798-453C-B6E6-7B8191FF18E9 ## **Section E Financial review** The Pre-School holds a contingency fund of around £40,000 in a savings **Brief statement of the** account to act as a safety net for emergencies and possible **charity’s policy on reserves** redundancies if the business were to close.
