## **OAKWOOD EDUCATION DIRECTORS' AND TRUSTEES REPORT For the year ended 31 August 2022**
The trustees are pleased to present their report together with the financial statements of the charity for the period ending 31 August 2022
The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the accounts and comply with the Charity’s Memorandum and Articles of Association, The Charities Act 2011 and the requirements of the Statement of Recommended Practice, "Accounting and Reporting by Charities" issued in March 2005 preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland published on 16 July 2014.
The directors of the charitable company (the charity) are its trustees for the purpose of charity law and throughout this report are collectively referred to as the trustees.
## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT**
## **Governing document**
The organization is a charitable company limited by guarantee, incorporated on 26 October 2007 and registered as a charity on 30 April 2008. The company was established under a Memorandum of Association which established the objects and powers of the charitable company and is governed under its Articles of Association.
## **Appointment of trustees**
The directors of the company are also charity’s trustees for the purposes of charity law and under the company’s Articles. Under the requirements of the Memorandum and Articles of Association the members of Charity Trustees consist of at least three and not more than seven.
## **Trustee induction and training**
The trustees maintain a working knowledge of charity and company law and from current year onwards, they endeavor to attend charity and company courses run by outside providers. New Trustees are given copies of Memorandum and Articles of Association and Policies and Procedures of the organization.
## **Risk Management**
The directors and trustees have identified the major risks to which the Charity is exposed and believe that the systems in place are adequate to mitigate those risks. The charity makes little use of financial instruments other than an operational bank account and so its exposure to price risk, credit risk, liquidity risk is not material for the assessment of the assets, liabilities, financial position and profit or loss of the charity.
## **Public Benefit statement:**
The trustees consider that they have complied with Section 17 of the Charities Act 2011 regarding the guidance on public benefit published by Charity Commission. The paragraphs below demonstrate the public benefit arising through the Charity's activities.
4
## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES**
## **The company’s objects and principal activities are:**
a) to advance education by providing education to the local community for children and adults including e-learning, health education and sports and leisure training and activities.
b) to promote religious harmony for the benefit of the public including but not limited to educating faith communities on each other’s faiths, organizing interfaith sporting and recreational events and
c) to advance the religion of Islam.
## **The Role and Contribution of volunteers:**
There are no volunteers in the charity.
## **ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE**
## **Financial review**
A full time headteacher was employed in September 2021.
Thereafter a full time deputy headteacher was employed in June 2022, enhancing and strengthening our leadership team.
February 2022 we had an additional Ofsted inspection – comment received was “the school meets all of the independent school standards.”
7[th] July 2022 full Ofsted inspection – “overall Good rating with Outstanding Behviour.”
Improved teaching and learning – all teachers are good or better.
Continuous efforts to expand the trustee board.
Partnership with parents – assemblies, ambitions programme – open door policy
Fundraising – for the school and for charities.
In January 2022, we started negotiating with our former trustee for the purchase of land on Dallow road for the purpose of constructing a secondary school for Oakwood Education.
Monies was transferred to Mr Jahid Akbar for the purposes of securing the property and a total of £130,000.00 was transferred to Mr Akbar.
Unfortunately, despite our best efforts, that deal fell through, and we were unable to secure the land. In May 2022, the monies were returned back to us in full.
## **Principal funding sources**
The principal funding sources of the organization are the tuition fees from students and grants received for nursery funding. The charity also raised money through an appeal to fund the purchase of a property which will help deliver better school facilities.
5
## **Investment powers and policy**
Under the Memorandum and Articles of Association, the charity has the power to invest in any way Trustees wish. It endeavors to maximize interest income from use of free financial resources.
## **Reserves policy**
The Charity trustees has examined the charity’s requirements for reserves in light of the main risks to the organization. At the end of the period there is an restricted reserve of £907,980 (2021 – 983,838) and unrestricted reserve of £17,099 (2021 - £36,213) available to the organization however the strategy is to continue to build reserves through planned operating surpluses, the Management Committee has also considered the extent to which existing activities and expenditure could be curtailed, in the unlikely event that reserves become inadequate to meet the necessary commitments.
## **Trustees’ responsibilities in relation to the financial statements**
Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements that give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity at the end of the financial year and of its surplus or deficit for the financial year. In doing so the trustees are required to:
• Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
• Make sound judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and
• Prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is appropriate to presume that the charity will not continue in business.
The trustees are responsible for maintaining proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enables them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. The trustees 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.
This report has been prepared in accordance with the provisions in Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006 applicable to companies subject to the small companies’ regime.

to keep accounting records in accordance with section 386 of the Companies Act 2006; and to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records, comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 and with the methods and principles of

## **OAKWOOD EDUCATION Notes to the Accounts For the year ended 31 August 2022**
## **1. Accounting Policies**
The principal accounting policies are summarised below. The accounting policies have been applied consistently throughout the year.
## **1.1 Basis of Accounting**
The accounts (financial statements) have been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) issued on 16 July 2014 and the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011 and UK Generally Accepted Practice as it applies from 1 January 2015.
The accounts (financial statements) have been prepared to give a ‘true and fair’ view and have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a ‘true and fair view’. This departure has involved following Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) issued on 16 July 2014 rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn.
## **1.2 Incoming Resources**
Income from activities, voluntary income and donations are included in the incoming resources when they are receivable, except when the donors specify that they must be used in future accounting periods or donors’ conditions have not been fulfilled, then the income is deferred. The income from fundraising ventures is shown gross, with the associated costs included in fundraising costs.
## **1.3 Resources Expended**
Resources expended are included in the Statement of Financial Activities on accruals basis, inclusive of any VAT that cannot be recovered.
Expenditure that is directly attributable to specific activities has been included in these cost categories. Where costs are attributable to more than one activity, they have been apportioned across the cost categories on a basis consistent with the use of those resources.
## **1.4 Going Concern Basis**
The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, as in the opinion of the director and trustees, there are no issues arising which would suggest any other basis as being more appropriate.
## **1.5 Depreciation**
Depreciation is provided using the following rates and bases to reduce by annual instalments the cost, less estimated residual value, of tangible assets over the estimated useful lives:
Furniture, Fixtures, Fittings and Equipment - 25% on cost. Improvements - 20% on cost. Motor Vehicles – 20% on cost.
