Achievements and performance
## Section D
## Achievements and performance
We have continued to focus on developing training opportunities for staff **Summary of the main** and social fundraising activities, that had been absent during COVID, **achievements of the charity** have improved the financial performance of the preschool, along with **during the year** strong attendance numbers. The preschool was visited by OFSTED for a formal report in October 2022. Learnings were taken from the feedback but receiving the outcome of Good was a great result. We had some staff changes with our Deputy Manager Hannah leaving in July 2023. The role split so we have a separate Deputy Manager and SENCO. This will reduce the impact in the future should there be any further staff changes and it was a great opportunity for internal staff promotion and development.

I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of the above charity (“the Trust”) for the year ended 31/08/2023.
**Responsibilities and** As the charity's trustees, you are responsible for the preparation of the **basis of report** accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (“the Act”).
I report in respect of my examination of the Trust’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination, I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
**Independent** I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have **examiner's statement** come to my attention in connection with the examination which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect:
- the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; or
- the accounts did not accord with the accounting records; or
- the accounts did not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair’ view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.
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 accounts to be reached.
