OBJECTIVES, ACTIVITIES & PUBLIC BENEFIT
The aims of the pre-school are lo advance the development and education of children,
primarily under stalulory school age, by..
{al offering appropriate play. education and care facilities:
Ib) encouraging family leaming and recognising the right of parents to take responsibility
for, and lo become involved in the activities of our pre-school-
Icl ensuring that the pre-school offers opportunities for all childien whatever their race,
culture, religion. means or ability..
Id) recognising the needs of the children and their families and promoting public
interest in and recognition of such needs in the local 8rea',
{e} implementing and furthering the aims and objectives of the Earfy Years Alliance.
We believe that play is an important and essentl81 part of growing up and developing skills. All our
activities are planned around Ihe'Foundation Stsge of Learning, and the'Eady Learning Goals,, which
continue into the reception class of primary schools. We follow the principles and slandaids for
Learning, Development and Care for children from birth to age five.
Vve believe that each child is unique.. that each child needs to develop positive relationships-
that the environment is essential in supporting and extending each child's development and
that each chikj leams in different ways and at drfferent rates across all areas of learning.
Vve are committed lo safeguarding and promoting the wellare of children and expect all staff
and volunteers to share this commitment. All staff and trustees are subject to Disclosure and
Barring Service (lomierly Criminal Records Bureau) checks.
The trustees confim) that they have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity
Commission's 'General Guidance on Public Benefit. when reviewing the pre-school's aims
and obj'ectives. in future planning. and in the setting of fees for the year.
During the period of this report, 811 children are entitled to grant funding from the term after their
third birthday. The pre-school 8ccepts children from the age of ￿0. We also take govemmenl
funded ￿0-Year-OldS.
The pre-school does not operate 8 selection policy and there is no catchment area, all
children are welcome. In addition, we work closely with various childcare ServI￿S and will
consider taking children from troubled backgrounds, or with social or developmental issues,
as long as this is not to the detriment of the general population of the pre-school.
The pre-school is registered wllh OFSTED INO 1333971 and is therefore subject lo inspections.
