Parkgate Pre-School

Overview

Parkgate Pre-School is a UK nonprofit organization registered with the Charity Number 1199313. It provides educational and developmental services primarily for children between the ages of 2 and 4.

Objectives

The primary objectives of Parkgate Pre-School are to enhance the development and education of children, particularly those under statutory school age. This is achieved by encouraging learning in a nurturing environment.

Operations

Parkgate Pre-School operates during term times, offering sessions Monday through Friday from 9:00 AM to 3:30 PM. Additionally, it includes a lunch club to support working families by extending childcare hours.

Management

The pre-school is managed by a Voluntary Management Committee, which is elected annually. This committee consists of parents and staff, ensuring that decision-making is inclusive and responsive to the needs of the community. The committee oversees policy and practice, staff employment, and appraisals. Parents are encouraged to participate actively in the management of the pre-school, either by attending meetings or joining the committee.

Governance

Parkgate Pre-School is a nonprofit making organization, meaning that it reinvests any surplus funds into improving educational services rather than distributing them as profits. This approach aligns with its charitable objectives and ensures that resources are used effectively to support early childhood education.
