Windle Trust International Annual Report & Accounts 2021

Annual re ort of the Trustees p

A. An overview: Windle Trust International (WTI)

Charity Commission: Registration No: 1092834; Date of registration: 8 July 2002 Companies House: Company Limited by Guarantee: 4285691 Charitable objects: To advance education, in particular the education of refugees, internally displaced people, and other people affected by or at risk from conflict and natural disaster and (their) host populations.

Mission statement: WTI challenges poverty and inequality by expanding access to and improving the quality of education and training, for communities affected by conflict, displacement, neglect or discrimination.

The Trustees would like to report that a new strategy for 2021-2025 was drafted and they agreed to maintain the mission and the charitable objects of the Trust as these are still relevant. With the new strategy, the Trustees are delighted that in 2021 the staff worked hard across the offices to provide education to our target population, building on our 2020 achievements and these were anchored on two pillars:

We have delivered activities in 2021 to be able to achieve the above two pillars and work towards our mission and charitable objects. The 2021-2025 strategic plan is guided by five objectives. These are:

Improve the quality and effectiveness of education

Increase access to education for all including girls, women, and children with disabilities

Provide youth skills development and expand alternative education programmes

Expand the provision of education in emergencies

Increase organisational resilience, learning and effectiveness

B. Structure and governance

WTI is governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association which formed the basis for the appointment of its first Trustees. Subsequent Trustees are appointed by existing members and the Trustees as per the Charity law are also the Directors of the Trust as a company. In 2021, the Board created the position of Deputy Chair as advised by our auditors and appointed Sam Bickersteth to the post. The Board also appointed three new Trustees and Directors, and these are Mewahib Mohammed, Anna Kulakiewicz and Alistair Mack.

Two of the Trustees of WTI also sit on other trusts with which we share similar vision and mission. Eleanor Horne is the Chair of The Hugh Pilkington Charitable Trust (charity number 328006), which has provided substantial financial support to WTI over many years. Eleanor is also a Trustee of Windle International (charity number 1153544). Malcolm McNeil, who is the Chair of WTI, is simultaneously a Trustee of Windle International. Windle International coordinates the work of members of the ‘Windle’ family of trusts, working in Kenya, Uganda & Somalia as well as Windle Trust International. The Windle trusts operate as autonomous organisations, with their own Trustees and strategy, but we share a founding history, a common set of values and a focus and emphasis on access and quality of education for refugees, IDPs and conflict-affected populations and those who have suffered marginalisation and discrimination in the East and Horn of Africa region.

C. Public Benefit

The Trustees providing their oversight role ensured that all WTI work adhere to UK Charity laws and general guidance on public benefit. As such the Trustees through its quarterly meetings ensured all activities are delivered to the highest standards to the benefit of the public. All 2021 activities were delivered to meet the objects of the Trust with no harm to the public.

D. Management

The operation and delivery of programmes across WTI is led by the Executive Director who is responsible for all aspects of the work of the Trust and reports to the Chair of the Board of Trustees. WTI’s two Africa offices are led by Country Directors based in Khartoum in the Sudan and in Juba, South Sudan. They oversee the implementation of WTI’s strategy in these countries with support from the Executive Director. WTI’s Oxford based head office provides operational and financial management support to the country offices and is also responsible for the implementation of Postgraduate Programme led by a Programme Manager.

E. Operational Context

WTI delivers its activities in the fragile and conflict affected countries of Sudan and South Sudan, as well as in the United Kingdom. These contexts present various challenges to the delivery of projects, especially in remote and insecure locations. The challenges were compounded by the coronavirus lockdowns and its aftermath. Despite the challenges, in 2021 WTI was able adapt to the times and implemented its planned projects in the three countries. With a relatively clear understanding of how to safely work despite the continuous prevalence of coronavirus in schools and universities, both in Africa and our postgraduate programme in the UK, we were able to deliver projects to expectations and in some instances exceeded expectations. 2021 saw the full re-

opening of schools and universities with guidance on how to reduce infections. This enabled our staff to return to the schools, and universities to provide support to our direct beneficiaries and their communities, especially those that were recovering from the impact of the lockdown in the Sudan and South Sudan. We were able to organise activities to support return of primary, secondary and university students back to school and provided support to those who were at the verge of dropping out.

The Trustees would like to register their gratitude for the continuous support to WTI by donors in 2021. Despite the challenges of coronavirus and its impact on economies across the globe, donors were still able to fund our activities to enable the Trust to make strides towards achieving its objectives. The Trustees appreciate FCDO, UNICEF, UNHCR, Global Affairs Canada, Education Cannot Wait, the Guernsey States, All Saints Educational Trust, Allan & Nesta Ferguson Trust, the Gordon Memorial College Trust Fund, the Commonwealth Scholarships Commission, UK University partners and many individual donors for their support. With this support, WTI was able to provide support to 1,225 primary and secondary schools across Sudan and South Sudan reaching a total of 589,602 pupils and training 3,596 teachers and 43,317 members of the parents and teachers associations (PTAs). In South Sudan with FCDO funding, WTI was able to deliver cash for education to 100,297 primary and secondary school girls. With UNICEF funding, WTI led major back-to-learning campaigns in four states of South Sudan to mobilise communities to bring 27,000 pupils back to school, as well as train teachers

Windle Trust International Annual Report & Accounts 2021

and community leaders. In the Sudan, UNHCR funded WTI to provide scholarships to 488 (237 female) undergraduate refugee students in various universities and colleges across the country.

Although WTI was able to deliver its projects, these were not without challenges, especially shortfalls in funding due to donor budget cuts, political instability in the Sudan, flooding in South Sudan, the influx of Ethiopian refugees in the Sudan and the delays in the issuing of visas for our UK Postgraduate students due to changes resulting from coronavirus restrictions. Despite these challenges the Trustees are pleased to report that WTI delivered most of its contracts to expectations and ended 2021 with a lot of optimism for more work in 2022. WTI had 84 staff in the three countries in 2021 and the staff continued to work with dedication in challenging circumstances to deliver projects. Below we detail our activities in line with our strategic themes and their impact on our target population.

F. Activities and impact

2021 was a busy year for WTI. We are pleased to report on the activities implemented in the UK, Sudan and South Sudan and the impact of the Trust’s work across these countries. We delivered the activities in line with our five strategic objectives. In 2021 all five strategic objectives were delivered upon to meet the educational needs of our target population. This included:

Windle Trust International Annual Report & Accounts 2021

1. Improved quality and effectiveness of education

Teachers in group discussions during training in Yambio

To improve the quality of education, teachers need to be trained, school leaders need to know their roles as leaders of the curriculum, teaching and learning materials need to be provided and school governors need training to enable them to know their critical oversight and community liaison roles. The provision of quality education is multifaceted, as the intention should be to provide the educational outcomes

needed for individuals, communities, and societies to prosper. WTI believes that quality education should provide resources and direct policy support to allow schools, teachers, school managers, teacher training institutions to align and integrate fully with their communities to access a range of services across the sectors designed to support educational improvements. Improving the quality of education is therefore to serve each child pedagogically and developmentally. In our operational contexts, often the call to bring more children to school overshadows the need for improved quality of education with clear learning outcomes. The Trustees would like to report that in 2021 WTI delivered various activities geared towards improving the quality and effectiveness of education in Sudan and South Sudan. Teacher training, distribution of teaching and learning materials to learners and teachers, training of school leaders and governance made up most of our work.

In 2021 WTI trained 3,596 teachers in English Language and the teaching of literacy and numeracy for lower primary schools. We also trained 43,317 school governors on their role in improving school effectiveness and distributed learning materials to 19,919 learners and teachers

2. Increased access to education for all including girls, women, and children with disabilities

WTI operates in contexts that have high levels of displacement, nomadism, and a poor attitude towards education especially for girls and children with disability. As a result, there are millions of children out of school in Sudan and South Sudan. In addition, access to higher education to enable the transition to employment is limited and almost non-existent in some communities. The Trustees would like to report that in 2021 we made significant investment in expanding access to education at all levels and to all categories of children and young people, these are detailed below:

2.1 Support to Early Childhood Development education (ECDE)

The provision of early childhood development education (ECDE) in many parts of Africa has little support from governments and this is not different in South Sudan. Many children do not have opportunities to start school in their early years because early-years education facilities are non-existent in their communities. In 2021, WTI established 15 ECD Centers in two counties and enrolled 2,955 (1,089 girls) learners in the centres. With the establishment of the ECD centres in the community, WTI was able to increase awareness about early years education and through this involved communities in the education of their children.

2.2 Provision of inclusive primary and secondary education

2021 saw an increase in the number of primary and secondary schools that WTI supported across Sudan and South Sudan, working with internally displaced persons (IDPs), refugees and host communities. WTI supported 1,225 schools, of which 102 were secondary. This support included rehabilitation of school facilities, construction of temporary learning spaces to expand classrooms, provision of water and sanitation facilities, and training of parent’s teachers’ associations and school management committees on their roles in schools. We also trained communities as one of the key

components of expanding access and increasing retention of learners in the education system. In addition, WTI was heavily involved in community mobilisation to bring children back to school. With UNICEF funding WTI led massive campaigns called “Back to Learning” (BTL) in, four states of South Sudan to promote returning

Windle Trust International Annual Report & Accounts 2021

to school after the long school closures due to covid-19 lockdown. This included initiatives to make school learning environments more conducive so that it can attract more learners to return to school.

2.3 Promoted the education of girls and young women

The countries in which WTI delivers its projects are on the bottom list of countries that support the education of girls and young women. In South Sudan, only 15% of teachers are female. Early pregnancy, early and forced marriages are commonplace. In the Sudan, especially in conflict affected States such as the Blue Nile, the number of girls attending and completing both primary and secondary schools is among the worst in the county. The Trustees are pleased to report that in 2021 we increased our efforts in support of the education of girls and young women through various initiatives with funding from different donors. In South Sudan we delivered cash for education to 100,297 girls through the FCDO funded GESS project. This not only encouraged them to come to school, but remain, learn, and transition to the next levels of education. In addition, WTI provided mentoring sessions and life-skills training to over 15,654 primary and secondary school girls to encourage them to remain in school. With the mentoring initiative, WTI contracted the services of community role models called “School Mothers” who were attached to 40 secondary schools to directly work with the schoolgirls to discuss their challenges. This innovation has enabled the school mothers to directly intervene in cases where schoolgirls are on the verge of dropping out or being offered for marriage. The School Mothers have been able to visit parents and challenged them against marrying off their daughters and also encouraged those who have dropped out due to childbirth to return to school.

The Trustees are also happy to report that in addition to working directly in primary and secondary schools, we also supported young women in Khartoum, by providing accommodation to enable them attend university. With funding from the Gordon Memorial College Trust Fund, WTI provided

accommodation for 53 young women in 2021 to enable them to have a conducive and safe learning environment. This group of students are mainly IDPs and refugees, but all come from poor families and without accommodation support in Khartoum city they would otherwise not have been able to attend university. The accommodation provides kitchen, laundry, and other services which enable the students to concentrate on their academics rather than worry about where to live.

2.4 Promote the education of children with disability (CWD)

Disability in many parts of Africa, including Sudan and South Sudan, is considered to be a curse or something to be ashamed of. Many parents hide their disabled children from the public eye and as a result there are thousands who miss out on educational opportunities. As part of WTI’s efforts to increase access to education, in 2021 WTI contracted the services of Ear Nose & Throat (ENT) and ophthalmologist doctors to work with us to reach children with disability in schools. As a result, 59 learners, 15 girls and 44 boys, were assessed with visual, hearing, and other types of disabilities. With the assessment results WTI procured eyeglasses and hearing devices for learners who had visual and hearing impairments. The assessment encouraged many parents to bring CWD to school.

2.5 Increased access to quality higher education

The provision of higher education opportunities to people affected by conflict, marginalisation or neglect has been WTI’s flagship programme for over 40 years. This is mainly because access to higher education for these categories of people is expensive and inaccessible, especially for those in rural areas. In 2021 WTI expanded access to higher education both at undergraduate and postgraduate levels in the Sudan, South Sudan and in the UK:

2.5.1 Undergraduate programmes

WTI is the main partner for the UNHCR Albert Einstein German Academic Refugee Initiative (DAFI) scholarship and the Urban Refugee Tertiary programme for refugees in the Sudan. In 2021 WTI continued to provide UNHCR funded scholarships in addition to its own scholarships for the host communities in Kosti, White Nile State and Damazine, Blue Nile States in the Sudan. In 2021 WTI supported 258 (134 female) DAFI refugee students from various countries to study in the Sudan. In addition, we also supported 230 (103 female) urban refugees in Khartoum from different countries of origin.

In addition to UNHCR funded undergraduate scholarships, WTI also developed initiatives to support refugees and host communities in South Sudan and the Sudan. WTI has established a distance learning programme in partnership with the University of Juba to provide degree level courses for 40 refugees across three refugee camps to be trained as secondary school teachers. In the Sudan, in partnership with Blue Nile University, WTI is providing scholarships for 6 students to be trained as secondary school teachers to contribute to the improvement of quality education in the region.

2.5.2 The Postgraduate Programme

Across 2021 WTI supported Postgraduate Masters level scholarships for 26 students, including 11 in the 2020/2021 academic year and 15 in 2021/22. This has included a broad range of development focused degree courses, with students studying a varied array topics including Public Health, Special and Inclusive Education, Agroforestry and Food Security, Energy and Environmental Change, and Gender, Violence and Conflict amongst others. One of the key objectives of the Postgraduate Programme is for students to be able to return to their communities and contribute to societal change throughout their lives and careers and we are confident that, based on the subjects studied and the characters of the students selected through the rigorous interview and selection process that this will be achieved.

The increase from 11 to 15 students in 2021/2022 is a positive development for the programme which had stagnated for several years at a base of 11 students. Indeed, there were 2 further students for whom funding was secured, which would have seen an increase to 17 students, however their places had to be deferred due to circumstances beyond control: delays in processing refugee travel documents due to Covid-19, and “unclear” results received for a tuberculosis test.

Page 16 of 52

Windle Trust International Annual Report & Accounts 2021

The increase in overall places is largely due to strategic decisions taken, such as the decision to explore alternatives to the traditional approach of bringing scholars to the UK. Four of the placements in 2021/2022 are part of a pilot programme to include Distance Learning placements on the Postgraduate Programme. A new partnership with the Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine introduced 3 placements for the MSc in Global Health, whilst the expansion of our longstanding partnership with UCL’s Institute of Education provided funding towards a Distance Learning MSc Social Policy and Social Research. Alongside standard items included in a Distance Learning scholarship such as tuition and examination fees, the Postgraduate Programme’s model recognises that the home environments for those with whom we work may be less than ideal, and also includes specific funding to cover costs such as home internet, electric power backup systems and ICT equipment needed for distance study. If successful, these scholarships will be expanded in future years to provide a new tool with which the Postgraduate Programme can work and grow.

3.0 Provide youth skills development and expand alternative education programmes

Skill development opportunities are

lacking in many institutions of learning in WTI’s countries of operation. Many young people therefore leave school without the ability to do anything to earn a living. This situation is exacerbated by the many school dropouts and out of school youth and children who missed out on education for one reason or another. In 2021 we

----- Start of picture text -----

were able to provide opportunities for the youth to acquire skills through the provision of scholarships. In the Sudan we provided 34 (27 female) scholarships for vocational skills training in partnership with the Academy for Health Sciences in White Nile State and with Blue Nile University.

The vocational skills training participants are studying courses ranging from mechanics, nursing, laboratory technology, electrical installation, and bookkeeping, among others.

Page 17 of 52

Windle Trust International Annual Report & Accounts 2021

Apart from vocational skills training, in 2021 the Trustees also invested in the provision of alternative education to various categories of young people and adults who missed out on or who dropped out of school. To enable these categories of people to access education, WTI established 10 Accelerated Learning Programme (ALP) centres for overage primary school learners to enable them complete primary school. We enrolled 880 (338 girls) in the 10 centres across two counties and these learners will be able to sit their primary leaving examinations in 2023. In addition, WTI established 6 mobile schools to promote education among pastoralist communities in Lakes and Unity States of South Sudan. Through the mobile schools, WTI was able to reach 776 (280 girls) learners with teaching and learning resources and paid teachers who provided education in the cattle camps.

The Trustees are further pleased to report that WTI was able to roll out Accelerated Secondary Education Programme (ASEP) across South Sudan in 2021. This initiative was developed to provide a second chance to adults who were unable to complete secondary education to be able to do so in a shorter period of time. This initiative attracted 1,913 (558 female) teachers who enrolled in the programme, with some hopefully sitting for their end of secondary education examinations in early 2023.

4. Expanded the provision of education in emergencies

WTI operates in fragile, and conflict affected countries with a lot of insecurity and instability in population settlement patterns. As a result, there is a lot of movement of people due to conflict or natural disaster, leading to an influx of refugees or internally displaced persons (IDPs). Refugees and IDPs face a multitude of physical and psychosocial threats to children, teachers and the education system. In 2021 WTI invested in the provision of education in emergencies in both Sudan and South Sudan. In South Sudan we constructed 11 temporary learning spaces for IDPs, trained 135 teachers on teaching methodology and psychosocial support and renovated schools that were destroyed and abandoned during conflict in the country. This support enabled the expansion of educational opportunities for people in transition and ensured they did not miss out on education, even in emergency situations.

5. Increase organisational resilience, learning and effectiveness

The resilience of WTI in the face of a changing development and humanitarian context is very important to the Trustees. Trustees take their oversight roles seriously and worked closely with the management to ensure that WTI is innovative and a going concern. To be able to do this Trustees encouraged the management to strengthen internal organisational expertise to be able to deliver projects as per donor requirements and WTI policies. In 2021 the Trustees funded a joint staff development training for 15 staff from both Sudan and South Sudan on project management delivered by Humentum in Juba, South Sudan. This training enhanced staff capacity to plan, develop, deliver, monitor, and report on projects as required.

Windle Trust International Annual Report & Accounts 2021

To further build resilience, the Trustees are pleased to report that 2021 saw an improved international engagement and presence online to raise WTI’s profile. WTI was able to write two papers, one on the impact of Covid-19 on girls’ education, and another for the UKFIET conference on Accelerated Secondary Education as an alternative to returning to school after the Covid-19 school closures. These two papers drew international attention to the work of WTI. As Trustees we believe that making the impact of our work known is an important element of building organisational resilience. In addition, WTI joined the UNHCR led Accelerated Education Working Group (AEWG) a body that brings together partners that deliver alternative education from different countries to share experiences. Through this strategic partnership with AEWG, WTI staff have been able make presentations of our work and also learn best practices in the delivery of accelerated education from other contexts similar to where we work.

Furthermore, the Trustees also believe that the expansion of our work and reaching more needy people enables us to provide continuity to the Trusts work. The Trustees approved the expansion of WTI’s operation in the Sudan outside of Khartoum. The opening of an office in Damazine, Blue Nile State has enabled WTI to extend the delivery of its activities to the conflict affected and displaced persons in the region. This has also enabled us to reach out to the Ethiopian refugees who started arriving in the region in 2020.

In South Sudan, as part of building organisational resilience, WTI contracted the services of architects to draw plans for WTI office construction on the two plots acquired in 2020. The plans for the office block are awaiting approval by the local authorities to enable the

Proposed WTI offices in Juba, South Sudan

contracting of a constructor for the building work to start in 2022. The Trustees of Hugh Pilkington Charitable Trust have committed to providing a loan for the construction of the new WTI offices in South Sudan to give WTI the resilience needed to continue operations in the country.

6. Improving WTI’s Internal Management Systems

6.1. Governance and Board Effectiveness

The Trustees of WTI appointed three new Trustees in 2021 for effective functioning of the Board. Throughout 2021, the Trustees met four times as scheduled to provide their oversight role. Three of these meetings were conducted virtually and one meeting was conducted in a hybrid format.

7. Financial Management

The year 2020 ended with a surplus of just over £75k, after a series of successful bids, however given the potential impact of FCDO funding cuts, together with other necessary overhead expenditure, the Trustees agreed a small deficit of £12k in the 2021 Budget. This budget was designed to find a balance between the competing needs of minimising expenditure, especially unrestricted spending, whilst at the same time as keeping our programmes functioning effectively and retaining as many of our key staff both in the UK and in Africa.

As in 2020, tight cost controls were accompanied by measures to increase income. This included the continuation of more rigorous management of full cost recovery and ensuring that the costs of Oxford staff were more consistently included in budgets and charged for, where appropriate. In particular, in late 2021, WTI recruited a new Finance Manager in the Sudan who introduced tighter cost controls, improved revenue recognition and more rigorous management of full cost recovery from projects.

Lower project and rental incomes were partially offset by higher gift in kind and donation incomes, resulting in overall lower than budgeted incomes. Tight cost management controls, however, resulted in significant overhead expenditure savings compared with budget, and this led to an unrestricted surplus of £12k. This is despite the inevitable issues that emerged from Covid-19 and the resulting funding cuts.

Alongside these organisation-wide measures to cut costs and increase income, WTI continued to take steps that had begun in 2019 to improve the effectiveness of our financial management system. Further internal audits were held in our two operational offices in South Sudan and Sudan, and resulting recommendations were incorporated into operational processes. These will continue to be held annually. These improvements are primarily designed with the future in mind and our plans to expand our programme, take on the management of more complex programmes and, in the longerrun, to develop new country programmes.

Page 22 of 52

Windle Trust International Annual Report & Accounts 2021

WTI’s existing systems of financial oversight and risk management involve detailed supervision by the Finance Committee, which then reports to the full Board. The Finance Committee has been extremely supportive of the long-term drive to strengthen our financial management system.

7.1. Development of office buildings in South Sudan

In 2020, WTI received a generous grant of £200,000 from Hugh Pilkington Charitable Trust (HPCT) which was used to successfully purchase plots of land in Juba, South Sudan. WTI successfully acquired titles for the plots in the name of WTI on which to construct an office. A company was contracted to start the process of designing the office space to enable the acquisition of building permits. HPCT has agreed, in principle, to a further loan of £225,000 to WTI to start the construction of the premises as soon as the designs, building permits and a contractor are ready to start the work. The Trustees of WTI are most grateful to the Trustees of HPCT for this additional investment in the organisation.

7.2. Reportable Incidents

The Trustees would like to report one incident of fraud which occurred in South Sudan and involved two employees. The incident was independently investigated, and the services of a forensic auditor sought, to ascertain the magnitude of the fraud. This resulted in the two employees being relieved of their duties, and one of them was made to refund $4,700 to WTI.

G. Financial Review

The income and expenditure for the year is set out in the Financial Statements. There was an increase (11%) in total income from £2,842k in 2020 to £3,161k in 2021, despite the inevitable operational issues that emerged from Covid-19 and funding cuts. This improvement is the consequence of an increase in restricted charitable activity incomes, which grew from £1,776k in 2020 to £2,284k in 2021. This continued growth is most welcome and reflects the success of the more rigorous approach to full cost recovery from institutional donors, and a growing role in consortia of which WTI is but one part.

The surplus of £12k in the year led to a further improvement in our reserves to £290k and goes some way in meeting the reserve target figure which Trustees deem to be prudent considering the unpredictable context in which we are working in East and Horn of Africa. These volatilities and uncertainties which have been made worse by the outbreak of corona virus has led to growing need to use reserves as working capital to pre-finance spending on restricted project implementation.

Page 23 of 52

Windle Trust International Annual Report & Accounts 2021

A schedule of universities and other partners providing fee waivers and other assistance is annexed to the Financial Statements. The Financial Statements reflect the value of the fee waivers and subsidies by universities and partners to students sponsored by WTI because they fund services for which WTI would otherwise have to pay. The value of this support in 2021 was £352k and is significantly higher than the previous year (2020 contribution: £309k), which reflects the increased success in achieving fully funded and partially funded placements with partners such as the Commonwealth Scholarships Commission.

The pressures on the higher education sector will only increase in 2022 and beyond, as the Covid-19 pandemic affects the uptake of places at the same time as online learning alternatives become more common and acceptable. WTI anticipated these long-term trends (though not, of course, the consequences of Covid-19 accelerating the pace of emerging trends in the sector) and, over the next few years, we plan to diversify the range of postgraduate courses we will support as well as looking to support students in higher education institutions in countries other than the UK.

WTI has a Remunerations Policy that provides the framework for agreeing salary levels. There are no exceptions.

H. Reserves policy

Traditionally, the purposes of reserves have been understood as being the means to enable the charity to meet shortfalls in income for specific projects; to provide ‘leverage’ contributions as part of a partnership with other funding agencies; to meet unforeseen expenditure or the costs of winding up the charity responsibly. The level of the charity’s reserves reflected these purposes. In addition, the Trustees observe that reserves are, in effect, working capital as major donors increasingly adopt a payment in arrears approach.

This requires charities such as WTI to incur 3-4 months expenditure before reimbursement is made. The adoption of a payment in arrears approach assumes that charities have a significant level of unrestricted reserves which can be used to finance projects which are often restricted in nature. If two or three funders adopt the same policy, it means that small charities such as WTI are required to pre-finance spending on two or three projects. This requires an enhanced level of reserves, one that can accommodate both the programme needs of beneficiaries as well as organisational needs that reflect legal obligations and compliance with good governance.

Page 24 of 52

Windle Trust International Annual Report & Accounts 2021

The Board of Trustees have decided that WTI should aim for an increased unrestricted reserves target of £350k due to the uncertain funding environment and the expansion of operations in Sudan. At the end of 2021, WTI’s unrestricted reserves were just under £290k (2020: £277k). This is a significant and welcome improvement on the reserves balances of the last few years, and WTI will continue to work to increase the balance.

Analysis of the latest forecast of project incomes and overheads, together with other operational cash flows, confirm that there are no material uncertainties over going concern for the next 12 months at the very least.

I. Fundraising

WTI’s income is a mixture of unrestricted and restricted income. In 2021, total unrestricted income was £750k, while restricted income was £2,411k (76% of total income). Restricted income is funding to implement specific activities, projects, or a range of projects, usually in a specific country. The imbalance between restricted and unrestricted income has long been a feature of WTI’s financing. The Trustees are pleased to further report, however, that we are in the process of strengthening our visibility through writing specialist education papers in a bid to raise our profile to enable us raise unrestricted incomes.

WTI prepares project applications in response to calls for proposals; in most cases these applications are prepared by our programme staff in the country or countries in which the call for proposals applies. This ensures that donors are in contact with the people who will manage project implementation and enables us to achieve a relatively high ‘win’ rate in terms of successful applications. This approach also means that our direct fundraising costs are very low since WTI does not employ anyone who is solely a fundraiser. On the contrary, our programme managers and country directors are responsible for fundraising activities as one of their duties.

In 2021, our principal donors continued to be the United Nation’s High Commission for Refugees (UNHCR); United Nations International Children's Emergency Fund (UNICEF), the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO); States of Guernsey Overseas Aid Commission, Education Cannot Wait, Global Affairs Canada, Gordon Memorial College Trust Fund, All Saints Educational Trust, Allan & Nesta Ferguson Trust, and British Council. We are also fortunate to benefit from the support of a range of UK based trusts, foundations, and individual donors. The most significant of these is the Hugh Pilkington Charitable Trust which has supported WTI for many years.

Windle Trust International Annual Report & Accounts 2021

J. Risk Management and Policy Development

As WTI operates in fragile and conflicted affected countries, inevitably there are risks to staff and the property of the organisation. The Trustees do recognise this challenge and would like to report that WTI has a risk register which is reviewed by the Finance Committee of the Board and the full Board twice a year. The risk register is updated by staff regularly as risks are identified, monitored, and mitigated with any incidents reported to Trustees whenever they occur. The Executive Director works closely with the head quarter team, the Country Directors in Sudan and South Sudan to ensure staff strictly follow set policies and procedures to mitigate risks.

Policy development and systems improvements

In 2021 no new policies were developed, however several were reviewed and approved by the Board including:

  1. Conflict of Interest Policy

  2. Procurement Policy and Procedures

  3. Pension policy (for UK contracted staff only)

  4. Petty Cash Policy

K. Windle International

WTI is an active member of Windle International; a network of Windle trusts. WTI works closely with Windle International Kenya and Windle International Uganda and participates in all coordination meetings through the Executive Directors and the Council meetings. This has enabled the Trusts to work together to serve their targeted population.

L. 2022 Plans

Organisational

The Trustees approved a new strategy from 2021. The 2021-2025 strategy commenced in January 2021, with 2022 as the second year of the implementation. With five strategic themes on quality, inclusive access, expansion of alternative education, education in emergency and building organisation resilience, WTI hopes to build on the success of 2021 in 2022. WTI hopes to expand its operation into several states in the Sudan and develop staff expertise in all our strategic themes to ensure we deliver quality projects.

Page 26 of 52

Windle Trust International Annual Report & Accounts 2021

The Postgraduate Programme

The Trustees would like report that there are new innovations in the delivery of the Postgraduate Programme and going forward they have continued to encourage staff to use the available resources to grow the programme. With universities fully opened and functional in the UK, we envisage growth in the numbers for 2022/2023 including a potential to launch an Africa based postgraduate programme and continued trialling of the distance learning component of the programme.

Sudan

The Sudan office has started growing and the Trustees are happy to report that this is the direction they would like to see going forward in 2022. With the opening of an office in Blue Nile State WTI hopes to start delivering projects in the communities including for Ethiopian refugees, renovating or constructing schools, training teachers, providing scholarships, expanding vocational skills training and mobilising communities to send their children to school. WTI submitted several proposals to UNHCR, UNICEF and Gordon Memorial College Trust Fund and the Guernsey States Overseas Aid Commission to continue with our work in the Sudan in 2022.

South Sudan

The work of WTI in South Sudan is very important for its overall operation and this will continue for 2022. The Trustees are happy to report that projects signed in 2021 will continue into 2022, such as the FCDO funded Girls Education South Sudan (GESS), and the Adolescents Girls Education in Crisis Initiative (AGENCI) project funded by Global Affairs Canada. Furthermore, as part of the consortium of the South Sudan Multi-Year Resilience Programme (MYRP) funded by Education Cannot Wait (ECW) WTI will continue to deliver these important projects into 2022.

In addition to the above, WTI is a strategic partner to UNICEF for the delivery of teacher training and strengthening community resilience in South Sudan. WTI will continue delivering multiple projects on behalf of UNICEF in 2022. The Trustees are pleased that the South Sudan work of the Trust is no longer heavily reliant on one donor as this is important for WTI’s growth, especially as it plans to start the construction of its own office premises in 2022.

Statement of Trustees’ Responsibilities

The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ Report and the accounts in accordance with applicable law and regulations.

Company law requires the Trustees to prepare accounts for each financial year. Under that law the Trustees have elected to prepare the accounts in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). Under company law the Trustees must not approve the accounts unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and the incoming resources and application of resources, including the net income or expenditure, of the charity for that period. In preparing these accounts, the Trustees are required to:

The Trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the charity’s transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the accounts comply with the Companies Act 2006. They 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 Trustees are not aware of any audit information (information needed by the auditors in connection with preparing their report) which they should have shared with the auditors; and The Trustees have taken all steps that they ought to have taken as directors in order to make themselves aware of relevant audit information and to establish that the charity’s auditors are aware of that information.

Independent auditor’s report to the members of Windle Trust International

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Windle Trust International (the ‘charitable company’) for the year ended 31 December 2021 which comprise the statement of financial activities, balance sheet, statement of cash flows and notes to the financial statements, including significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including FRS 102. The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

In our opinion, the financial statements:

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charitable company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Conclusions relating to going concern

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.

Page 30 of 52

Windle Trust International Annual Report & Accounts 2021

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on Windle Trust International’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Other Information

The other information comprises the information included in the trustees’ annual report other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.

We have nothing to report in this regard.

Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the charitable company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the trustees’

Page 31 of 52

Windle Trust International Annual Report & Accounts 2021

annual report. We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

Responsibilities of trustees

As explained more fully in the statement of trustees’ responsibilities set out in the trustees’ annual report, the trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charitable company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

Page 32 of 52

Windle Trust International Annual Report & Accounts 2021

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud are set out below.

Capability of the audit in detecting irregularities

In identifying and assessing risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, our procedures included the following:

Page 33 of 52

Windle Trust International Annual Report & Accounts 2021

Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation.

A further description of our responsibilities is available on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities . This description forms part of our auditor’s report.

Use of our report

This report is made solely to the charitable company's members as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charitable company's members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charitable company and the charitable company's members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

Notes to the Financial Statements

a) Statutory information

Windle Trust International is a charitable company limited by guarantee and is incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office address is 37a Oxford Road, Cowley, Oxford, OX4 2EN.

b) Basis of preparation

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2015) - (Charities SORP FRS 102), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (September 2015) and the Companies Act 2006.

Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy or note.

The charitable company meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102.

d) Going concern

The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern. The risk management section outlines the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on the charity and reasons why this does not lead to material uncertainties around going concern.

The trustees do not consider that there are any sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next reporting period.

Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and that the amount can be measured reliably.

Income from government and other grants, whether ‘capital’ grants or ‘revenue’ grants, is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the grants have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably and is not deferred.

Income received in advance of the provision of a specified service is deferred until the criteria for income recognition are met.

Donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised as income when the charity has control over the item or received the service, any conditions associated with the donation have been met, the receipt of economic benefit from the use by the charity of the item is probable and that economic benefit can be measured reliably. In accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102), volunteer time is not recognised.

On receipt, donated gifts, professional services and donated facilities are recognised on the basis of the value of the gift to the charity which is the amount the charity would have been willing to pay to obtain services or facilities of equivalent economic benefit on the open market; a corresponding amount is then recognised in expenditure in the period of receipt.

g) Interest receivable

Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the bank.

Windle Trust International Annual Report Accounts 2021

Page 38 of 52

Windle Trust International (company no. 4285691) Accounts for the year ended 31 December 2021

Notes to the Financial Statements

h) Fund accounting

Restricted funds are to be used for specific purposes as laid down by the donor. Expenditure which meets these criteria is charged to the fund.

Unrestricted funds are donations and other incoming resources received or generated for charitable purposes.

i) Expenditure and irrecoverable VAT

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified under the following activity headings:

Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred.

j) Allocation of support costs

Resources expended are allocated to the particular activity where the cost relates directly to that activity. However, the cost of overall direction and administration of each activity, comprising the salary and overhead costs of the central function, is apportioned on the following basis which is an estimate, based on staff time, of the amount attributable to each activity.

Support Costs: staff costs are first attributed to fundraising and governance on a time basis: the remaining costs are then apportioned, along with total governance costs, between the three categories of charitable activity.

Other direct programme costs (restricted) are allocated directly to the same activity as the programme for which they have been expended. Wherever possible other programme costs (unrestricted) are allocated in the same manner.

33.0% 67.0%

Governance costs are the costs associated with the governance arrangements of the charity. These costs are associated with constitutional and statutory requirements and include any costs associated with the strategic management of the charity’s activities.

k) Operating leases

Rental charges are charged on a straight line basis over the term of the lease.

Windle Trust International Annual Report Accounts 2021

Page 39 of 52

Windle Trust International (company no. 4285691) Accounts for the year ended 31 December 2021

Notes to the Financial Statements

l) Tangible fixed assets

Items of equipment are capitalised where the purchase price exceeds £500. Depreciation costs are allocated to activities on the basis of the use of the related assets in those activities. Assets are reviewed for impairment if circumstances indicate their carrying value may exceed their net realisable value and value in use.

Where fixed assets have been revalued, any excess between the revalued amount and the historic cost of the asset will be shown as a revaluation reserve in the balance sheet.

Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write down the cost of each asset to its estimated residual value over its expected useful life. The depreciation rates in use are as follows:

5-10 years 3 years 4 years

Note that the plot of land purchased in Juba for £200k, for the purpose of constructing permanent WTI offices, has yet to be built on and is still solely land, hence no depreciation has been applied as yet.

m) Debtors

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.

Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.

o) Creditors and provisions

Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.

p) Financial instruments

The charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

q) Pensions

In the UK, from January 2021 onwards, the pension policy was changed so that it is based on length of service rather than age. WTI contributes to a private defined contribution pension scheme, after successful completion of the employee’s probationary period, as follows: 5% (0 to 2 years), 7.5% (2 to 5 years) and 9% (more than 5 years).

Overseas, in accordance with local legal requirements the company contributes 17% of gross pay to employees’ social security funds: employees themselves contribute 8%. For employees who reach the retirement age of sixty, in line with normal practice, the 17% employer contribution is accrued by the company and salary is paid gross without deductions. Each fund balance is payable to the employee at the end of his or her contract of employment. Pension costs are recognised in the accounts on the accruals basis.

In accordance with local legal requirements, we have also set aside a provision where amounts are due to employees for future gratuity payments.

9 Staff remuneration (continued)

Key Management and Trustees

Key Management remuneration was £68,531 (2020: £72,131). No Trustee received any remuneration in the period (2020: none). All employees, including the Executive Director, are subject to the terms of the company's remuneration policy, which requires remuneration to be approved annually by the Board of Trustees.

Trustees' expenses for travel & subsistence were paid to 2 Trustees (2020: 1). In 2021, the total of these expenses was £515 (2020: £1,783).

10 Related party transactions

There are no related party transactions to disclose for 2021 (2020: none).

Eleanor Horne is also a trustee of HPCT, whilst both Eleanor Horne and Malcolm McNeil are trustees of Windle International.

Via Windle International, the company receives income from HPCT (see note 3), from whom it also had a short term loan (see note 14). It is recognised that these multiple and inter-locking trusteeships are a potential source of conflicts of interest. This is managed by a strict application of WTI’s conflict of interest policy, which all trustees and staff are required formally to acknowledge.

In 2003, Windle Trust International purchased property at 37 and 37a Oxford Road using funds loaned to the charity by the Hugh Pilkington Charitable Trust (HPCT). Under the agreement with HPCT, all proceeds of any future sale of the property will return to HPCT. Therefore for accounting purposes Windle Trust International is not deemed to have control over the asset and therefore the value of the land and buildings, along with the loan due back to HPCT, is not recognised within the accounts. A gift in kind reflecting the value of annual rent is recognised in income and expenditure.

In 2020, HPCT provided WTI with further funds of £200k for the purchase of land in Juba, on which new offices will be constructed.

The loan above was from the High Pilkington Charitable Trust. This short term loan, renewable annually, was originally granted to assist with cashflow. Over recent years it has been reimbursed at the rate of £25,000 per year. This does not reflect the value of the loan used to purchase the property at 37 and 37a Oxford Road for the reasons outlined in note 11.
