TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT (continued)

YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2021

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

Governing Document

The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust, and constitutes a limited company, limited by guarantee, as defined by the Companies Act 2006.

Recruitment and appointment of new trustees.

New trustees are selected at the AGM by being proposed and seconded. The trustees are typically made up of parents whose children are due to start attending the Pre-School that academic year, or who are already at the Pre-School. Provided there are no objections, the new trustees are invited to an initial meeting where their roles and responsibilities are explained and the importance of such things as safe guarding and confidentiality are reinforced. Once they have accepted a place they undergo a DBS check.

Risk Management

The trustees have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the charity is exposed and to ensure appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error.

Public Benefit

The trustees have had regard to the Charity Commission guidance on public benefit.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Objectives and Aims

The objects of the Charity are to enhance the development and education of children under statutory school age by encouraging parents to understand and provide for the needs of their children through community group.

Our Vision Statement

At Harbury Pre-School we aim to create a caring, secure and stimulating environment where all children will enjoy learning, achieve success and feel valued and respected.

We aim to foster each child's uniqueness and individuality as they work towards common goals within the Early Years Foundation Stage.

We are committed to providing a high level of care and education for all our children and are constantly looking at and implementing ways to move forward.

Ratio of Adults to Children

A key priority of the Pre-School is the focus on the individual care for each child. This is made possible by a high ratio of adults to children, which we aim to be one adult to five children.

HARBURY PRE-SCHOOL

TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT (continued)

YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2021

Key-Worker System

Each child also has the support of a personal key-worker. Our key-worker system gives each member of staff particular responsibility for just a few children. Each child in the group has one special adult to relate to, which can make settling into the group much easier. In addition, the key-worker is in a position to tailor the group's curriculum to the unique needs of each child. The key-worker maintains links with the child's home setting, working with parents to ensure that all children are supported in reaching their full potential.

ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE

Charitable Activities Review

This year the Pre-School has continued to build upon its relationship with the nursery care provided in the village, enabling children and their families to benefit from both settings. The Pre-school has increased the hours offered to provide a more flexible care setting for local families, which has seen a positive increase in the sessions attended. No major building or maintenance work was required this year, although there are projects planned to improve the setting over the next year. Better exterior signage, replacing the ceiling to the store room and redecorating inside and out are some examples. The parents and staff have all worked extremely hard to keep to the exceptional standards the PreSchool maintains for the children and the staff also work tirelessly to ensure that the development of the children is at the forefront of their minds and embrace the new curriculum.

RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE TRUSTEES

The trustees (who are also the directors of Harbury Pre-School for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.

Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the trustees have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). Under company law the trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and the income and expenditure of the charitable company for that period.

In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:

HARBURY PRE-SCHOOL

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF HARBURY PRE-SCHOOL

YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2021

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 August 2021.

RESPONSIBILITIES AND BASIS OF REPORT

As the charity trustees of the company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 (the 2006 Act).

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of the charity accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act). In carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S STATEMENT

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:

  1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or

  2. the financial statements do not accord with those records; or

  3. the financial statements do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act 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; or

  4. the financial statements have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102).

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 financial statements to be reached.
