funding opportunities to service users in the local a￿8. We continue to offer
Early years education places for children aged 3

These funding opportunities allow children and families with varying needs to be able to access the
setting and for all children to have opportunities to feel happy, safe and secure in a fltn environment
where they can develop individuallv.

Achieving a hi8h standard in inspection outcomes is a constant aim whilst maintaining the quality of
c4re. education and opportunities we provide. The setting leader and other prartitioners continue to
review the curriculum and opportunities provided to ensure they remain appropriate for our children's
individual development.
Our future plans are financed primarily from local authority fundin& fee Income, fvndraising events

continuous improvements in the setting and the reserve of finances to ensure the securty of the
organi5ation.

reviewing and renewing our procedures in the current ever-chan8ing situation with COVID 19.
