Our Aim

To create access to quality education for children living in in countries affected by poverty, disasters and conflict.

Objectives

Fundamental principles

Dignity

We believe that every person we interact with has an innate right to be valued and to receive ethical treatment that promotes values such as trust, good behaviour, fairness, and kindness.

The objective of The World Wide Education Project is to advance education for public benefit through:

We carry out our work through activities in four specified service lines:

The projects we have delivered in the reporting period demonstrate the flexibility of our service offer.

Respect and value of each and every individual

We believe that every person has the right to live, develop to the best of their personal potential, have the same rights and not face exclusion, be respected, and be entitled to opportunities to develop their knowledge and skills. Equally, every person is entitled to protection from violence, exploitation and other forms of abuse.

Listen to, and be prepared to learn from, children

We believe that every child has the right to express their views, and to have those views listened to and taken seriously. Any activity that is undertaken is done so with the best interests of the child or children in mind.

The value of education

We believe that quality education results in positive change in raising income, improving health, promoting gender equality, mitigating climate change, and reducing poverty, as education provides the foundation to creating an equitable society.

Do no harm

We are aware of the wider impact our work may have and take steps to minimise any negative outcomes to our beneficiaries and the wider communities within which we operate. We aim to provide locally effective assistance in ways that are supportive of recovery and long-term sustainable development.

World Wide Education Projects 2020/21

Due to the global COVID-19 pandemic, the charity had to change its plans for international activities due to the ban on international travel. Therefore, the charity carried out minimal activities and decided to hold its reserves and looks towards 2021/22 for a return to normal operations.

Funding activities for the year 2021/22 will focus on expanding the classroom construction project at Kakuma refugee camp, northern Kenya, and a review of other international activities will be carried out.

Financial review

Income

The World Wide Education Project divides its financial resources into ‘unrestricted’ and ‘restricted’ funds. Restricted funds are those ring-fenced for use on particular projects and are identified by the trustees and operational director when assessing the financial requirements of a project. Funds may be restricted for up to 2 years. The purpose of this is to ensure that the charity has sufficient resources to fulfil its commitments regardless of additional income over the period of restriction.

Donors may likewise elect to restrict their donation(s) to be used for a particular project or projects, or they can choose to make a general donation. Restricted donations are identified in the accounts and only used for the purpose intended.

The total income for the period was £7635.42.

Expenditure

Funds were expended in this financial year except for preparing the accounts.

The expenditure was £1,162.58

Reserves policy

It is the policy of the World Wide Education Project that all funds received are used in furtherance of the charity’s objectives. It is the intention of the World Wide Education Project to build up reserves of funds to cover a minimum of 6 months operating costs. The World Wide Education Project ensures that all opportunities to provide assistance in line with its aims are carefully assessed and evaluated in relation to the funds at its disposal.

Reserves for the period rolled into the following year total £10,544.26.

Risk management

The trustees have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the World Wide Education Project is exposed and to ensure appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against operational, organisational, and strategic risks. The Trustees have reviewed the risks to which the World Wide Education Project is exposed, including child safeguarding, financial risks (including reserves, fraud, bribery and corruption), hazardous operational environments, and staff capacity. The Trustees recognise that the charity operates on limited financial resources, and therefore the financial position and financial commitments of the World Wide Education Project are kept under constant review.
