STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

The Charity governing document is a CIO Foundation constitution that was registered on 15[TH] Sept 2014.The Charity is governed by a board on which the trustees are represented. It meets regularly to review, plan activities and monitor the financial position.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

The Objects of the organisation are for the advancement of education for the public benefit of persons living in borough of Brent, Ealing and the surrounding area, in particular, but not exclusively the provision of free educational courses to people who are in financial hardship. The trustees confirm that they have had due regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit before deciding what activities the charity should undertake.

ACHIEVMENTS AND PERFORMANCE

The Organisation continues to hold successful after school tuition classes for children needing support with 11 plus exam, primary and secondary school education and even A level students during the year. This year the organisation moved its classes online due to the pandemic and still saw an increase in the number of students attending and they have also increased the teaching staff to support this. This has produced positive results in the members of the community who benefited from the classes

FINANCIAL REVIEW

The income of the charity is above £477,000. This is a good amount for this year of the charity the costs have been well managed over this period. The organisation is still in a good position to manage its costs. The charity expects to clear the debt in the next few years. The main cost of the organisation was paying for the rent of its building and the rates as well as supporting the wages of the teaching staff who were contracted out self-employed teachers.

FUTURE PLANS

The charity plans to continue its operation by broadening the number of the beneficiaries that are able to access its services.

It is the policy of the Charity to maintain unrestricted funds, which are the reserves of the charity at about 3 months of unrestricted expenditure .This provides sufficient funds to cover any emergency expenditures that may arise from time to time.

Independent Examiner’s Report To the Trustees

TALENT ENGAGED ACADEMY

I report on the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31[th] July 2023 set out on the following pages which have been prepared on the basis of the accounting policies shown in the corresponding pages.

Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner

The trustees of the charity are responsible for the preparation of accounts: they consider that the audit requirement under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act),does not apply. It is my responsibility to :

Examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act.
Follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners made under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act.
State whether particular matters have come to my attention.

Basis of Independent examiner’s report

My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the church and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts.

Independent examiner’s statement

In the course of my examination, no matter has come to my attention;

(1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material aspect, the trustees have not met the requirements to ensure that:
proper accounting records are kept( in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act
accounts are prepared which agree with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act: or
(2) to which , in my opinion , attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached
