Manea Pre-School Annual report – 2023.
Manea Pre-School continues to serve the small village community of Manea, in the Cambridgeshire Fens. The Pre-School is physically located within Manea Community Primary School and is managed by the Governors of the school.
The Pre-School was last inspected by OFSTED in 2019 and was judged as “Outstanding”.
The staff liaise closely with the Primary School staff to ensure a smooth transition can take place, although as a PVI setting, having a place at PreSchool does not guarantee a school place at Manea Community Primary School.
The experienced and qualified staff team provide rich, varied, stimulating, imaginative and cross curricular experiences for all the children while taking in to account every child’s individual needs.
This has been an exciting period for Pre-School with the ongoing planning of new accommodation which is being funded by Cambridgeshire County Council. The initial funding sum was reduced and this involved revisiting the plans in order to provide the accommodation required within the budget constraints imposed. The Primary school will now be provided with new classroom spaces and an expanded hall and the Pre-School will have a purpose-built new building located within the school grounds. During the building work phase the Pre-School will be relocated within the school but this will not affect the quality of provision for the children.
Manea Pre-School employs up to four part-time staff. Manea Primary School is responsible for all aspects of the Pre-School finances and adheres to all of the policies and procedures specified by the Local Authority. Regular financial checks and audits are undertaken by Governors and the Local Authorities finance team.
