## **Trustees’ responsibilities**
The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
It is our responsibility to:
- examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act;
- follow the procedures laid down in the general directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145 (5)(b) of the Charities Act); and
- state whether particular matters have come to our attention
## **Risk Management**
The trustees review the major risks the charity faces on a regular basis and believe that the transfer of operations to a CIO combined with an annual review of the controls over key financial systems continues to provide sufficient resources in the event of adverse conditions. The Trustees agreed, at a committee meeting, held on the 2[nd] October 2023, to hold a minimum of £20,000,00 in CIO savings account held at HSBC as further Risk Management. We are currently performing above this level. The minimum will be reviewed in 2024 to account for increases of running costs.
## **Governance risks and significant events**
Incident occurred on the 11[th] October 2023 that was reported to Ofsted. Internal action was taken as a result and Ofsted gave the following:
The Pre School reported an incident to Ofsted on 13 October 2023, the provider notified us that a child was left unsupervised in a secure outdoor area, for a brief period. The notification means that the provider met their legal responsibility as set out in the Statutory framework for the early years foundation stage to notify Ofsted of significant events. On 6 November 2023, we carried out a regulatory telephone call. We found the provider was not meeting some of the requirements and had taken action to put this right. The provider added additional measures to minimise the risk of children gaining access to the outdoor area unsupervised. The manager provided staff with training on the procedures to follow when returning inside to ensure no children are left alone outside. She had completed observations of staff practice to ensure they understand these procedures. The provider will be able to give parents further information about this. The provider is still registered with Ofsted.
Whilst there were no enforced closures during the year, the focus remained on the safety and wellbeing of staff, children and families.
The pre-school continues to flourish under the new manager and deputy manager appointed in late 2020.
We continue to strive in order to ensure that the board of trustees best represent the children who currently attend the setting.
## **Independent Examiner**
A resolution to reappoint Anthony Matthews as Independent Examiner to the CIO was approved by the trustees meeting held on the 12[th] September 2024.
This report was approved by the trustees in a committee meeting held on Thursday 12[th] September 2024 and signed on their behalf.
