ACORN PRE-SCHOOL CIO

To provide high quality care and education for children primarily below statutory school age, working in partnership with parents to help them learn and develop. To add to the life and well-being of our local community and offer children and their parents a service that promotes equality and values diversity.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government
The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

One or more trustees receive payments or benefits from the charity for providing services to the charity
The Board is completely female

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
