## **The Learning Tree**
## **Trustee' Report**
The trustee present the annual report together with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2024.
## **Trustees**
Ms H Dean Mrs L Gilbank (appointed 13 March 2025) Ms J Anderson (appointed 13 March 2025) Mrs W Downing (appointed 13 March 2025) Mrs S Baker (resigned 30 September 2024) Mr S Mosley (resigned 30 September 2024)
## **Objectives and activities**
## _**Objects and aims**_
The Learning Tree's objectives are to provide flexible and accessible child care on an "at cost" and "not for profit" basis. This is maintained by reviewing the hourly rate annually. This allows the Nursery to operate efficiently and effectively, being mindful of cost savings and necessary expenditure only.
Projects that require additional funding are met in the main by fundraising carried out by voluntary assistance.
## _**Objectives, strategies and activities**_
The Learning Tree Nursery and Kids Club provide a choice of care for children aged between 2 years and 11 years on weekdays between 7:30am and 6:00pm throughout the year. The facilities are registered with local social services and the pre-school activities are subject to Ofsted inspections. The Learning Tree's last inspection by Ofsted was in March 2020, achieving a "Good" rating.
## _**Public benefit**_
The trustees confirm that they have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commissions general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the nursery's aims and objectives and in planning future activities.
The Learning Tree Nursery and Kids Club exists to provide pre-school childcare from ages 2-4 and after school club ages 4-11. This provision meets the needs of the local community and allows families to have both partners working where necessary. The hours of the nursery are from 7:30am till 6:00pm, Monday through to Friday. The Nursery also operates thoughout the year encompassing school holidays with closure only over the Christmas period.
The staffing of the nursery is met from the local community with all members being encouraged to follow Personal Development Programmes that meet the training and development plans governed by Ofsted and the local county council.
A close working relationship with the local community school is maintained and the nursery is the major feeder of primary age children starting at age 5.
Throughout the year the children receive a structured development plan of play and educational learning and enter the school at 5 with confidence in themselves and the ability to mix comfortably with children of their own age.
The trustee confirm that they have complied with the requirements of section 17 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to the public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission for England and Wales.

## **The Learning Tree**
## **Trustee' Report (continued)**
## **Financial review**
## _**Policy on reserves**_
Reserve funds are held to cover capital expenditure and cover any future emergency expense.
The trustees consider that approximately three months of operating costs are required to be held as free cash which equates to £60,000. The actual free cash at the year end equates to £93,681 and is therefore broadly in line with the policy which has been set.
## **Structure, governance and management**
## _**Recruitment and appointment of trustee**_
Trustees and committee members are appointed or re-elected annually in November at the Annual General Meeting.
All staff members and parents using the childcare facility are invited to attend and are given one month's notice.
There is a child protection policy in place. DBS checks are carried out prior to commencement of employment, trusteeship or committee activity. The trustees and committee are formed from parents with children attending the facility.
All trustees and committee members give their time voluntarily and do not receive any remuneration or benefits of any kind.
The annual report was approved by the trustee of the charity on 28 July 2025 and signed on its behalf by:

## **The Learning Tree**
## **Statement of Trustee' Responsibilities**
The trustee are responsible for preparing the trustee' report and the financial statements in accordance with the United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice) and applicable law and regulations.
The law applicable to charities requires the trustee to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources of the charity for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustee are required to:
- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
- observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;
- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
- state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and
- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business.
The trustee are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008, and the provisions of the constitution. The trustee are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
The trustee are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the charitable company's website. Legislation governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.

## **The Learning Tree**
## **Independent Examiner's Report to the trustees of The Learning Tree**
I report to the trustee on my examination of the accounts of The Learning Tree for the year ended 31 December 2024.
## **Responsibilities and basis of report**
As the charity trustee of The Learning Tree you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the Act’).
I report in respect of my examination of the The Learning Tree's accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
## **Independent examiner’s statement**
Since The Learning Tree's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of Chartered Institute of Public Finance and Accountancy, which is one of the listed bodies.
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material 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 Learning Tree as required by section 130 of the Act; or
2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or
3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 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.
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 accounts to be reached.

## **Going concern**
The trustee consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern.
## **Income and endowments**
Income including fees, government funding and other fundraising activities is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured with sufficient reliability.
## _**Investment income**_
Dividends are recognised once the dividend has been declared and notification has been received of the dividend due.
## **Expenditure**
All expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to that expenditure, it is probable settlement is required and the amount can be measured reliably. All costs are allocated to the applicable expenditure heading that aggregate similar costs to that category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated on a basis consistent with the use of resources, with central staff costs allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset’s use. Other support costs are allocated based on the spread of staff costs.
## _**Charitable activities**_
Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them.

## **The Learning Tree**
## **Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2024 (continued)**
## **Taxation**
The charity is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes. Accordingly, the charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by Chapter 3 Part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitable purposes.
## **Tangible fixed assets**
Individual fixed assets costing £100 or more are initially recorded at cost, less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses.
## **Depreciation and amortisation**
Depreciation is provided on tangible fixed assets so as to write off the cost or valuation, less any estimated residual value, over their expected useful economic life as follows:
**Asset class Depreciation method and rate** Copier and computer equipment 25% straight line Portakabin 10% straight line Fixtures and fittings 20% reducing balance
## **Trade debtors**
Trade debtors are amounts due from customers for services performed in the ordinary course of business.
## **Cash and cash equivalents**
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and call deposits, and other short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value.
## **Trade creditors**
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if the charity does not have an unconditional right, at the end of the reporting period, to defer settlement of the creditor for at least twelve months after the reporting date. If there is an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting date, they are presented as non-current liabilities.

Contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities when they are due. If contribution payments exceed the contribution due for service, the excess is recognised as a prepayment.
