We also have a suggestion box in nursery for everyone to post suggestions and ideas on how to improve our provision. We speak to parents daily updating them with their child’s activities throughout the day. Post photos on social media and collate a learning journey for the child to take home. Our under 2’s have a daily communication diary that are used to update parents about their child’s day, parents also have the opportunity to update nursery. Staff training We currently employ thirteen members of staff. One staff holds a qualified Teacher status, two staff have an Early Years Foundation degree, 9 staff hold NVQ level 3’s. Nursery is currently supporting one staff member who is near completion of her NVQ level 3. In line with Ofsted all staff members have received up to date paediatric 1st aid training. Management have up to date health and safety training, 4 staff have basic food hygiene. Management and the chair of trustees have achieved Safeguarding at level 3 and in- house training has been given to the other members of staff. Various training such as Promoting Positive Behaviour, Inclusion, SENCO Wellcomm/Keys to Communication and the updated EYFS statutory framework training have been attended by various members of staff. We have a new appointed Senco in nursery who has qualified with a NVQ level 3 she has also been working on a weekly basis with he local council to support two children with diagnosed autism attending our nursery. Through staff appraisals and supervision, training needs for individual staff are identified and through our Early Year’s consultation meetings with Local Authority we review staff training and attend courses based on what is needed in order to develop our learning, enhance our provision, and ensure we are meeting the individual needs of children in our care. Quality of teaching, learning and assessment We have high expectation of the standards that children can achieve within EYFS teaching and are responsive to the needs of all our children. Children made good progress in their learning and development, with Staff knowing the children very well. This combined with an effective “key person” system and concise procedures for tracking progress means staff accurately plan to meet the children’s needs ensuring appropriate challenge and support is provided. Our Priorities for improvement for the year 2023/2024 1. Enhance nursery’s environment to set more challenges activities during continuous provision. 2. Focus / provide support for children’s early language and communication skills 3. review all policies and procedures and give staff, trustees and parents copies. 4. Support staff in regard to training and strengthen our development We met all these priorities, including supporting the staff who were training and strengthening our planning system that were two of our priorities for improvements over the coming year. Our aim was to give children the opportunity to make decisions and choices in their learning by providing a carefully balanced curriculum to include adult and child-initiated learning. Staff used an observation, assessment, and planning cycle to ensure children accessed appropriate learning experiences and made outstanding progress in their learning. Our preschool staff visited another setting to gain ideas to enhance our preschool provision. This was a great opportunity for the staff and we hope to revisit next year. Exciting activities were planned to develop all areas of learning. This ensured that children developed their curiosity, exploration, imagination and problem-solving skills to a high level. We look forward to another busy year with lots of fun activities planned. ## Additional information (optional) You may choose to include further statements where relevant about: |Achievements against

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** [The charity’s gross income exceeded £250,000 and I am qualified to **examiner's statement** undertake the examination by being a qualified member of [insert name of applicable listed body]]. _Delete_ [ ] _if not applicable._ I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination (other than that disclosed below *) 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. * _Please delete the words in the brackets if they do not apply._ |**Signed:**
