Carrick Preschool

Public benefits

The beneficiaries of the purpose are children who are under statutory school age of the Newry and Mourne and surrounding environs in County Down. The direct benefit which flows from the purpose is the provision of education to children under statutory school age. This benefit is evidenced through feedback from parents/carers, monitoring by social

services and the Early Years organisation. The children attending Carrick Preschool benefit by: • Being better prepared for Primary school • Having an increased knowledge as they learn about the world around them, maths, science and technology, reasoning and language. • They get to integrate with other children and learn valuable social skills, develop positive attitudes towards themselves and to others. • They develop self confidence, creativity and problem solving skills. This purpose does not lead to any harm. The Management committee is made up of parents of children who attend the preschool but this private benefit is incidental in order to achieve the charity's purpose.
