**REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES for the year ended 31 August 2021**
## **ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE (continued)**
## **Student attainment**
2020/21 saw a 100% graduation rate, 87% of which with a ‘Good Degree’ (Upper Second or First).
This was a particularly strong year compared to previous years. It should be noted that even though the number of Lower Second or Ordinary degrees being awarded is low, this number is made up of 100% Ordinary Degrees, that is degrees awarded without Honours, a qualification to those who have not completed the full diet of study for an BA (Hons).
By way of comparative data, this academic year demonstrates a significant improvement in student attainment from previous years.

## **ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE (continued)**
## **Student attainment (continued)**
Our results in this academic year track nicely ahead of the national average in HE for this same year.
_Please note, the student numbers on this academic year were particularly low, which impacts the comparative figures ._
## **Graduation celebration**
Thanks to the pandemic restrictions lifting, a graduation ceremony was held by UWL in December for students from this and the previous academic year. It was a particularly special occasion to celebrate two years of achievement and many of the graduating students from the year before we had not seen for a long time.
Due to an outbreak of Covid-19 within the Nexus ICA community an in-person celebration was cancelled but we joined together online.
## **Recruitment**
With uncertainty continuing around Covid 19, recruitment continued to be an area of difficulty. The Higher Education Sector came under scrutiny from the press and did not necessarily emerge in a good light. At Nexus ICA, the student experience was wholly different to that reported in the press, we nonetheless suffered the impact of that and received a higher than average number of withdrawals and deferrals from students accepted to study in the 20-21 academic year.
Engagement on socials and website saw an increase, and further spending was allocated towards the area to try to boost recruitment. A new website was planned for release in the academic year 21-22.
## **Social media followers**
The figures below are as of August in each academic year.

Our intended goal of increasing recruitment was not met, and discussions started in August 2021 at Board and Senior Leadership level regarding the future sustainability of Nexus ICA as an ongoing business.
## **Student experience**
Despite discouraging recruitment figures, student feedback concerning experience remains strong, and staff response to feedback remains consistent in application.
## **Fundraising and additional streams of income**
For the second year in a row, fundraising activities were curtailed but not the extent of the 2019-20 academic year.
In consultation with students and stakeholders, a fundraising ‘RAG’ week took place in June 2021. Three events took place:
Yorkshire Three Peaks Hike Coast to Coast Cycle Heart of England Way Walking Relay
Our fundraising target was **£15,000** . Our total fundraising revenue from the three events was **£14,234.96.** After expenses this was **£11,401.66**
We did not achieve our target for fundraising but the final total of £11k was a good amount to reach after a complete break in the previous year. Trustees and Senior Leadership Team began discussions on employing a fundraiser and beginning a high profile fundraising event in the near future.
It was agreed that fees for students would be increased in line with the University’s procedures and policies, from September 2021. The fees were set at £7,500 for Undergraduate study and £8,000 for Post Graduate.
## **Staff and student development**
## **Staff development**
As ever Nexus ICA staff continue to push themselves academically and creatively and this year was no different.
Daniel Meakin presented his conference paper ‘The wireless handheld microphone as a symbol of spiritual authority: a comparison between western and African church practice’ at Birmingham University in October.
Assistant Principal Hannah Proudfoot completed her undergraduate degree in Management & Leadership in November with a first.
Daniel Johnson continues to grow as voice in the faith-based academic community with several presentations, publications or panels in his name during this year.
Lecturer Joel Payne and his worship organisation Resound released their album Doxecology. Thirteen new, congregational worship songs that celebrate the wonder of creation, acknowledge our failures, and anticipate a glorious restoration in Christ.

## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES for the year ended 31 August 2021**
## **ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE (continued)**
## **Creative arts**
## **Nexus Christmas show**
Although we were hoping to host an onsite and online Christmas show, guidance for the Higher Education Sector recommended no extra curricular events should take place. Instead, the Director of Creative Arts organised a selection of online Christmas collaborations which included Alumni members. This made an excellent contribution to the strategy of strengthening relationships with Nexus Alumni.
The Nexus Virtual Christmas Overture featured students and staff past and present from all around the globe, including South Africa, USA, Germany, the Netherlands and the UK.
## **End of year show**
Extensive preparations were made for an End of Year Show, but it was cancelled due to a Covid case in the staff body. The safety of our guests and students was considered greater than the opportunity of running the show. Requests were sent out to guests to ask for a donation of their previously purchased tickets since plans for fund-raising announcements were curtailed.
Staff continued to encourage creativity within allowed boundaries as they had done in the previous year:
- Staff and student online performances, including collaborative work, continued.
- ‘How To’ blogs continued, encouraging students to remain creative and engaged at home.
- An interview was conducted at Nexus ICA with BBC Songs of Praise and the footage was released in June of 2021.
## **Updates to facility**
During the Academic year 2020-21 we were able to complete several larger projects. Right at the beginning of the year we were able to replace the back door, rework the disabled toilet and add a power assisted door mechanism from reception to the corridor to improve accessibility around the building.
Early on in the year we also removed the old built in stage and replaced it for a new steel deck platform to help improve our performance area. We were then able, over the summer, to reconfigure the reception area, moving the admin office into the old female toilet, allowing us to add a more suitable meeting room off the reception area.
In addition to these projects, we continued with ongoing upkeep and decoration to the building throughout the year.
## **Impact of Covid-19 pandemic**
Although a situation that was managed very well by Senior Leadership Team and staff, this continued to have an impact. Face to face sessions were restored where appropriate, and social distancing remained in place for the whole year. Remote lectures and remote support continued, and an extensive review of online provision was carried out, resulting in some changes to the teaching approach. The gradual return to face to face classes was planned and executed while ensuring boundaries and the preference of students was maintained. Classes and other sessions continued to be streamed online until the end of the academic year for those isolating or who needed a gradual return for personal reasons.
Virtual Open Days continued, with a hope that in person Open Days will commence in September of 2021.
The Leadership Team and Site Management team did an excellent job keeping up with changes, recommendations and requirements. A full daily cleaning schedule continues.
Extra-curricular activity was again either curtailed or cancelled for a second year. Since these opportunities form a vital part of the student-centred learning environment we provide, it has been increasingly difficult to maintain a sense of community and to track growth and developing maturity in students.
Although a business case was re-written and put forward for the Postgraduate Degree in Contemporary Worship Studies it was agreed by the Trustees and by the University that this should be indefinitely paused until a greater level of financial stability and student numbers is achieved.

**NEXUS INSTITUTE OF CREATIVE ARTS**
## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES**
## **for the year ended 31 August 2021**
## **FINANCIAL REVIEW**
## **Reserves policy**
In line with Charities Commission guidelines, Nexus ICA keep a minimum of 3 months operating costs in strategic reserve. Funds in excess of three months operating costs have been held to mitigate against delays in the receipt of student fees payment from The University of West London for Quarter 1 of the financial year where cash flow is historically at its lowest point. At 31 August 2021 general funds were £729,779 (2020: £758,464) and restricted funds were £2,686 (2020: £2,686).
## **Principal risks and uncertainties**
The trustees have conducted their own review of the major risks to which the charity is exposed and systems have been implemented to mitigate those risks.
## **General considerations of risk and student numbers:**
The main risk to sustainability is student numbers not hitting target or a number of students dropping out. The risk analysis factors in a 10% shortfall in student recruitment year on year plus a small percentage of students who leave the course early. It also includes a consideration for bad debt.
This can be mitigated by monitoring student numbers and staying on target with business plans to ensure targets are hit. The recruitment process involves reporting back on levels of applications, interviews and acceptances throughout the year as well as tracking it in relation to previous years.
As part of the management process, reports are prepared and presented to the Board ahead of each meeting throughout the year where adherence to the budget is monitored. These reports include historical data as well as forward cash flow projections which enable the board to make decisions on expenditure and, where necessary, instruct revised budgets to be drawn up.
## **Insufficient fund raising**
After staffing costs, the biggest expenditures are facilities upgrades and updates. The Board’s Fundraising Strategy addresses the need to raise funds for such expenditure; however the Board reserve the right to recommend a delay in facilities expenditure except where necessary upgrades or repair are unavoidable.
## **If CAS allocation is withdrawn or Tier 4 license revoked**
Currently, levels of international students are low enough not to impact the budget in an unmanageable way should Tier 4 be removed. Since Nexus ICA is a franchised partner of UWL, the students are UWL students and transfer onto a UWL course would be available within the 60-day time frame. This is low risk because we have successfully operated our license for several years. The small number of international students’ currently attending means the impact is relatively low and investment decisions can be deferred.
## **In the event of other business interruptions or financial difficulties**
As part of the provision within the franchise agreement, UWL receives the fees from the Student Loan Company. Since 50% of fees are not paid out till May of the academic year it allows them to make provision for continuation should Nexus ICA cease trading for any reason. UWL would then deliver the course from London or transfer students onto one of their other courses. Nexus ICA’s insurance policy also includes Business Interruption cover in the event of Force Majeure.
## **PLANS FOR FUTURE PERIODS**
While we have seen many successes, personal stories of transformation and a continuation of excellent pastoral support, the year has not been without its challenges. A decreasing student body naturally means decreased income and we have spent much of the year looking for ways that this can be mitigated, while still continuing with our vision to offer distinctively Christian, and distinctively different education within the Higher Education Sector.
Alongside many other Higher Education providers, we are considering our current situation with sober assessment. Plans for the future will include continuing to discuss business cases with our validating University, re-examining our business plans and recruitment strategy and strengthening current courses.
We continue to celebrate the achievements and highlights of the year, which all revolve around the growth and development of our staff and students.

**NEXUS INSTITUTE OF CREATIVE ARTS**
## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES for the year ended 31 August 2021**
## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT**
## **Governing document**
The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust, and constitutes a limited company, limited by guarantee, as defined by the Companies Act 2006.
The charity is a company limited by guarantee, incorporated on 16 August 2006, governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association and became registered as a charity on 29 November 2007. The charity was formerly known as 'Nexus Trust' before officially changing its name to 'Nexus Institute of Creative Arts' on 19 February 2014.
## **Organisation and structure**
The trustees who have served during the year and since the year end are shown on page 9. The trustees are appointed by the existing board of trustees and meet on a regular basis in order to oversee the work of the charity. The trustees delegate the day to day running of the organisation to a senior leadership team who are in turn responsible to the body of trustees. The trustees have the power to invest the resources of the organisation in such assets as they see fit.
## **Recruitment of trustees**
With one resignation and one appointment, the Board has remained small but continues to be effective. Communication between Board members is frequent and transparent and working relationship with the Principal remains strong, with frequent meetings and discussions.
## **Induction and training of new trustees**
New trustees are appointed by the existing trustees. The trustees are given an introduction to the Charity and are given the guidance from the Charity Commission on the roles and responsibilities of trustees. All trustees are reminded to monitor the Charity Commission's website for any updates of these responsibilities on a regular basis.
## **Key management remuneration**
Remuneration for key management personnel is set as part of the annual budget process with reference to benchmarking of pay and benefits for similar organisations.
## **Health and Safety**
Risk assessments, facility management, policies and protocols continued to be under constant review due to the Pandemic. The Board were kept updated on the developments and face to face classes were resumed in part towards the end of the year.

## **STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITIES**
The trustees (who are also the directors of Nexus Institute Of Creative Arts for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Report of the Trustees and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that period. In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to
- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
- observe the methods and principles in the Charity SORP;
- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in business.
The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
In so far as the trustees are aware:
- there is no relevant audit information of which the charitable company's auditors are unaware; and
- the trustees have taken all steps that they ought to have taken to make themselves aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the auditors are aware of that information.
Approved by order of the board of trustees on 12 May 2022 and signed on its behalf by:

## **REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE TRUSTEES OF NEXUS INSTITUTE OF CREATIVE ARTS**
## **Opinion**
We have audited the financial statements of Nexus Institute Of Creative Arts (the 'charitable company') for the year ended 31 August 2021 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, the Cash Flow Statement and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
- In our opinion the financial statements:
- give a true and fair view of the state of the charitable company's affairs as at 31 August 2021 and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for the year then ended;
- have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and
- have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.
## **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 Auditors' 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.
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 the charitable company'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.
However not all future events or conditions can be foreseen. The COVID-19 viral pandemic is one of the most significant economic events for the UK with unprecedented levels of uncertainty of outcomes. It is therefore difficult to evaluate all of the potential implications on the charitable company and the wider economy. The trustee's views on the impact of COVID-19 are disclosed in note 2 of the notes to the financial statements.
## **Other information**
The trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report, other than the financial statements and our Report of the Independent Auditors thereon.
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.
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, 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 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.
## **Matters on which we are required to report by exception**
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
- the information given in the Report of the Trustees is inconsistent in any material respect with the financial statements; or
- the charitable company has not kept adequate accounting records; or
- the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
- we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.

## **REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE TRUSTEES OF NEXUS INSTITUTE OF CREATIVE ARTS**
## **Responsibilities of trustees**
As explained more fully in the Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities, 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.
## **Our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements**
We have been appointed as auditors under Section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with the Act and relevant regulations made or having effect thereunder.
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 a Report of the Independent Auditors 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.
The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:
- Auditing the risk of management override of controls, including through testing journal entries and other adjustments for appropriateness;
- Reviewing minutes of meetings of those charged with governance; and
- Enquiry of management to identify any instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Report of the Independent Auditors.
## **Use of our report**
This report is made solely to the charitable company's trustees, as a body, in accordance with Part 4 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charitable company's trustees those matters we are required to state to them in an auditors' 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 trustees as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.
## **Allocation and apportionment of costs**
Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Costs which contribute to more than one activity are apportioned on the basis of staff time incurred on each activity. Support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between the activities being supported on the basis of staff time incurred on each activity.
## **Tangible fixed assets**
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.
