Achievements and performance
Bespoke Education Programme and Curriculum
In 2021/22 developments continued at King's Reach regarding education provision for disengaged and excluded students in Maidstone and the surrounding areas. This is heavily focussed on Social and Emotional progression, providing a one-to-one Bespoke Education Programme (BEP) specific to the young person's individual needs, one-to-one mentoring sessions, education and vocational tuition programmes.
The design of the Bespoke Education Programme is to encourage constant progression of the student. We understand that each student is completely individual and this process allows us to offer a learning package that compliments each individual. This process looks to challenge and remove the barriers that affect each individual student for learning. Each young person referred to King's Reach has an initial assessment which takes place over 6 weeks. During this time the young person's strengths and interests are discovered and explored. This information is then used as a foundation for the education programme, where traditional subjects are embedded into a creative curriculum. By adopting this approach, we have repeatedly witnessed significant improvement in engagement and progression of young people who have previously struggled in a traditional classroom and school environment.
Progress was made in the process of registration as a Special Independent School and a number of plans were put in place to make this achievable. A full time BEP Manager was secured to help focus time and resources on the registration of the school. The school property needed to become compliant with the Ofsted minimum standards. This included installing a new fire alarm system and developing a Fire and Health and Safety Action Plan to ensure the facilities met all the minimum standards. As part of of this process, new signage was installed throughout the site. In April 2022 King's Reach received a pre-Ofsted inspection. This was successful and King's Reach Education were deemed to be safe to open as an Independent Special School from September 2022.
The purchase of the education site, which was previously a long-term rental, was completed in August 2022 allowing for further development to take place over the next year.
A part time Education Manager and a Partnerships & Development Manager were employed to continue developing the range of curriculum options for our students. This also enabled the staff team to continue to work closely with parents and build on the community feel to the provision of the programme.
The Bespoke Education Programme needed to complete registration as an exam centre to enable future students the chance of achieving a variety of widely recognised qualifications. This was completed early 2022. Qualifications in Functional Skills Mathematics, English and IT could now be delivered inhouse.
The BEP programme was enhanced to offer a greater development for the students focusing on independence, this is achieved through working with local employers and work experience providers, utilising social experiences and trips to develop a wider range of opportunities for the students. The curriculum has expanded with an increase in the number of tutors, both vocational and academic, development of a full PSHE Programme and introducing a Creative Arts Enrichment Programme. Science days continued to be engaging for the students. The Physical Education curriculum continued to offer a range of varied activities for students to try.
The annual student reviews were held via video call again this year. Feedback from the referring agencies and parents/carers was positive in relation to the bespoke programme offered to the

students. A positive outcome, with all students remaining on role at King's Reach.
Staffing
Assessment, evaluation and monitoring continued, ensuring effective pastoral support for both students and staff. Weekly team meetings are attended by all staff, ensuring a high level of pastoral support is maintained.
Staff Training and professional development continued this year with termly staff training days being well attended. Investment in training was made to develop the team in readiness for becoming registered as an independent school. An Educational psychologist provided CPD for mentors via a training day. Staff have access to over 70 different training programmes that can be accessed and completed online. The core training for all staff includes GDPR, Equality and Diversity, Personal Safety - Lone Working, Food hygiene Level 2, Safeguarding - Prevent Duty and Safeguarding levels 1, & 2.
Due to the vulnerabilities of our current and future students, a decision was made that all staff complete Level 3 Safeguarding training. All staff are encouraged to complete as many additional on line programmes and qualifications that they wish to.
Woodlands
During this year areas of the woodlands have remained closed to allow for coppicing to continue and for development of a safer and more sustainable environment for use with the students. All woodland work with students were completed in partnership with Step Out at their Ashford site.
Achievements
There were a number of highlights over this current period including:
· Successfully registering as an Exam Centre with Open Awards. Staff have completed all training including becoming invigilators.
· Successfully registering as a Special Independent School.
· All students were given a chance to live out a dream of their own choosing, activities included a specialist fishing trip, sky diving, an air soft competition along with visits to various different locations.
· The first end of school year summer BBQ for friends and families of King's Reach was held. This included, Trustees, staff, students, parents, volunteers, educational partners and the Police. This was highly enjoyed by all who attended.
· Successful completion of purchase of St Hilary's House.
· 88% of enrolled students completed functional skills qualifications in mathematics, with 86% of these students passing.
Partnerships and Community
Our partnerships with the Vine church and Jubilee Church have continued this year, including the provision of Christmas gifts for the students and their families. Futureneers continued to offer careers advice for the students, this gave them a wider range of experiences to choose from. Talbot and Sons donated a real Christmas tree to the charity, which was enjoyed by all the students and staff team. A number of new volunteers who have generously donated their time and skills to help support the

charity with their objectives including; site and woodland maintenance, woodwork craft and electronics, German lessons, History lessons and the donation of two new cookers from a local businessman.
We utilised the services of local charities and businesses to develop student engagement in the local community, including working with Buttercups Goat Sanctuary, Maidstone Skills Centre, Demons Boxing Studio, Creepy Claws, Spadeworks, MADM and Princess Christian farm.
King's Reach have benefited from and have utilised the schools police officers team throughout this year. The team of officers visit the school site regularly and have spent time with both staff and students having relaxed and informal conversation.
The main focus of King's Reach community work has been outreach including one-to-one support. Dave King MBE and Stewart King CEO continue to be involved the community work and collaborate with external agencies, as required, to bring an holistic approach. King's Reach works directly with families in their home environment and where necessary will advocate on the family's behalf. King's Reach community work still receives no external funding, despite the lack of funding, the charity continued to to provide in excess of 520 hours of support to young people and local families.

RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE TRUSTEES
The trustees (who are also the directors of King's Reach Limited for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.
Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the trustees have elected to prepare the financial statements 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 financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and the income and expenditure of the charitable company for that period.
In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:

Year ended 30 November 2022
· select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
· observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;
· make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
· state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
· prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in operation.
The trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the charitable company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and 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.
Financial review
Principal funding sources
The charity's principal funding comes from Kent, Medway and Bexley County Councils for commissioned services and activities. In the period under review, income totalled £445,913(not including interest)
King's Reach has received both regular and one-off donations during the year. Donations totalled £6,668.
RESERVE POLICY
It is the policy of the charity that unrestricted funds, which have not been designated for a specific use, should be maintained at a level equivalent to three month's expenditure in line with Charity Commission recommendations. Due to increased funding and referrals this year, we have maintained reserves equivalent of two to three month's expenditure. The trustees consider that the achievement of reserves at this level will ensure that in the event of a significant drop in funding the charity's current activities can continue while consideration is given to ways in which additional funds may be raised.
ASSET COVER FOR FUNDS
Note 20 sets out an analysis of the assets attributable to the various funds and a description of the funds. These assets are sufficient to meet the charity's obligations on a fund by fund basis.

Fund accounting
All incoming resources are included in the statement of financial activities when the charity is entitled to the income and the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy. The following specific policies are applied to particular categories of income:
Voluntary income is received by way of grants, donations and gifts and is included in full in the Statement of Financial Activities when receivable. Grants, where entitlement is not conditional on the delivery of a specific performance by the charity, are recognised when the charity becomes unconditionally entitled to the grant.
Donated services and facilities are included at the value to the charity when this can be quantified. The value of services provided by volunteers has not been included in these accounts.
Investment income is included when receivable.
Incoming resources from permissible trading activity are accounted for when earned.
Incoming resources form grants, when related to performance and specific deliverable, are accounted for as the charity earns the right to consideration by its performance.
Incoming resources
All incoming resources are included in the statement of financial activities when entitlement has passed to the charity; it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the charity and the amount can be reliably measured. The following specific policies are applied to particular categories of income:
-
income from donations or grants is recognised when there is evidence of entitlement to the gift, receipt is probable and its amount can be measured reliably.
-
legacy income is recognised when receipt is probable and entitlement is established.
-
income from donated goods is measured at the fair value of the goods unless this is impractical to measure reliably, in which case the value is derived from the cost to the donor or the estimated resale value. Donated facilities and services are recognised in the accounts when received if the value can be reliably measured. No amounts are included for the contribution of general volunteers.
-
income from contracts for the supply of services is recognised with the delivery of the contracted service. This is classified as unrestricted funds unless there is a contractual requirement for it to be spent on a particular purpose and returned if unspent, in which case it may be regarded as restricted.

Governance costs include those costs associated with meeting the constitutional and statutory requirements of the charity and include the external scrutiny fees and costs linked to the strategic management of the charity.
Administration costs comprise service costs incurred in support of the charity.
Tangible assets
All fixed assets are initially recorded at cost.
Depreciation
Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost or valuation of an asset, less its residual value, over the useful economic life of that asset as follows:
Equipment - between three and five years
Impairment of fixed assets
A review for indicators of impairment is carried out at each reporting date, with the recoverable amount being estimated where such indicators exist. Where the carrying value exceeds the recoverable amount, the asset is impaired accordingly. Prior impairments are also reviewed for possible reversal at each reporting date.
For the purposes of impairment testing, when it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, an estimate is made of the recoverable amount of the cashgenerating unit to which the asset belongs. The cash-generating unit is the smallest identifiable group of assets that includes the asset and generates cash inflows that largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets.
For impairment testing of goodwill, the goodwill acquired in a business combination is, from the acquisition date, allocated to each of the cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination, irrespective of whether other assets or liabilities of the charity are assigned to those units.

3. Accounting policies (continued)
Financial instruments
A financial asset or a financial liability is recognised only when the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at the transaction price, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where it is recognised at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument.
Defined contribution plans
Contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised as an expense in the period in which the related service is provided. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent that the prepayment will lead to a reduction in future payments or a cash refund.
When contributions are not expected to be settled wholly within 12 months of the end of the reporting date in which the employees render the related service, the liability is measured on a discounted present value basis. The unwinding of the discount is recognised as an expense in the period in which it arises.
4. Limited by guarantee
The company is limited by guarantee and each member of the company, in the event of the winding up of the company, undertakes to contribute to the assets of the company, a maximum of £1.
