Main challenges:

2. Funding from the UK is proving increasingly difficult. We need to improve links with supporters in the UK to increase our funding.

3. There issues with the quality of teaching English. Lessons are sporadic and not of a high standard. It is very important for us to address this issue.

Staff Details:

The manager continues to work well and supports the students and staff. All staff have been working very well as a team throughout the year. Current staffing:

• Manager x 1

• Cashier x 1

• Social worker x 1

• Cleaner x 1

• Cooks x 3  Guards x 3

Facilities:

The centre has now been based in the same building for a number of years. This premises is proving fit for our purpose. A good outside space with a small area for teaching English, suitable office spaces, a library and an IT room. The Centre is well maintained by staff and students.

Key objectives for the coming year:

1. Employ a good quality English teacher and provide a high quality of teaching.

2. To redevelop links with TFL teachers from the UK to get regular support in improving the quality of English teaching.

3. Continue our work with the regional government with the aim of being granted land to develop our own facility.

Independent examiner’s report to the trustees of The New Day Children's Centre

I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of The New Day Children’s Centre (NDCC) for the 12 months ended 31[st] March 2022.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity trustees of NDCC 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 NDCC’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

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 NDCC as required by section

130 of the Act; or

1. the accounts do not accord with those records.

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.
