Fees
Hourly rate has not gone up for a number of years, it was proposed to increase the hourly rate to £7.50 per hour from September 2022, this was unanimously agreed.
Consumables
Lisa proposed to increase the consumables by £2.50 to £37.50 per half term, this was unanimously agreed.
Gill to update fees policy, parent contract, and prospectus. Caroline to update website
Term dates
There was a discussion about the amount of weeks that the preschool is open; we are currently open for 37 weeks. Surrey fund 38 weeks per academic year. It was explained that the last weeks of the summer term are the hardest. Gill reported that the extra income would only be about an extra £200. As we are not required to open for 38 weeks as long as we make parents aware that they can get it somewhere else should they want it. It is felt it is not financially viable. It was agreed that we will keep to 37 weeks
Incorporation
Karen is driving the change to become a CIO. She is working with early years with this process.
It is a big piece of work and will involve all the committee and staff in the coming months.
DBS and EY2 are a priority before we can move forward. Karen is drawing up a action plan to work through.
Fundraising
We will organise a separate meeting in the September
Meeting closed 9pm.
