TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024
Achievements and performance
Significant activities and achievements against objectives
TeachBeyond UK continues to grow as a small but dynamic mission charity.
-
Membership Growth: We increased the number of members sent overseas for mission work in 2024. As of December 2024, there are 27 members serving in the UK or overseas. The UK office also oversees, but with no legal representation, members of TeachBeyond globally who do not have a sending office in their country. The number of these members totals 21.
-
Diversified Income: The organisation expanded income-generation activities to support long-term sustainability.
-
Strategic Development: We continued exploratory work to establish TeachBeyond’s presence in Ireland, deepening relationships with churches, mission organisations, and Christian educational organisations.
-
Governance Renewal: The board began recruitment for a trustee with financial expertise and sought Charity Commission guidance to extend Dr Coleen Jackson’s term as Chair during this transitional period.
Outreach and recruitment
To support our outreach strategy:
-
The Chair and National Director met with Ireland Mission Agency Partnership (IMAP) to explore opportunities for collaboration as we consider establishing a presence in Ireland.
-
The National Director promoted the charity among potential donors, partners, and prayer supporters.
-
Through his participation on the TeachBeyond Global Cabinet, the National Director contributed to leadership initiatives and represented TeachBeyond UK internationally, enhancing our profile within the global network.
Fundraising practices
In 2024, TeachBeyond UK hosted two major fundraising events:
-
Walk Across the Bay – raised £8,108
-
Day of Giving (part of the Global Day of Giving) – raised £1,656.
Total fundraising income for 2024 was £9764 , with expenditure of £1884, resulting in a surplus of £7880.
Grant applications were submitted to strengthen unrestricted funds, essential for maintaining our UK office base.
General donations totalled £104,455. This is totalled from the general donations from monthly and one-off donors and interest from our saving account.
TeachBeyond North America (CANUSA) provided valuable financial support to national entities worldwide, including TeachBeyond UK. We are deeply grateful for this continued partnership.
Additionally, our collaboration with Open Schools Worldwide (OSWW) remains integral to our mission, supported by the experience of trustees previously connected with OSWW.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024
Financial review
Financial Position
Results and appropriations – The financial results of affairs including reserve positions of the charity for the 12month period ending 31[st] December 2024 are set out in the financial statements of the following pages.
Our income for the 12 months ending 31[st] December 2024 was £605,278 Restricted £500,823, Unrestricted £104,455). Expenditure for the same period was £602,490 (Restricted £498,810, Unrestricted £105,680).
The increase in the restricted giving has been a result of the more members joining and being sent overseas by TeachBeyond and the donors/supporters who help them financially to do so.
During the annual budget review in November, the trustees and National Director set a budget for the coming year for the restricted and unrestricted income and expenditure. All designated funds are reviewed using historical data and renewed perspectives of the potential opportunities and needs for the following year.
Principal Funding Sources
2024 saw 27 members serving either in the UK or overseas, and donations to support these continues to be our main source of funding. In 2024 we received money from 425 individual donors, 34 churches and organisations and 1 trust, a total of 460 donors.
As reported above, TeachBeyond UK continues to receive a grant from TeachBeyond Canada & USA (CANUSA). This helps our operational costs of the charity. We continue to have regular communication with them to ensure and enable that salaries and other operational costs can be paid in a paid on or before their due dates.
During 2024, the charity received a grant of £5000 from one trust. This was an anticipated reduction due to the grants received up to the end of 2023 were not carried on in 2024. The National Director with the assistance of the trustees are anticipating new grant applications in 2025.
We receive funds from donors through a variety of platforms that help ensure that donations are received either for members or general funds.
In the later stages of 2024, it was determined that we were to move from the current accounting and donations platforms to a new online software system, Xero. As a result of this, the charity sought an organisation to help implement this with support required. The full implementation of the software would go live in January 2025.
All funds received support our objectives to prepare and send Christian teachers and education professionals across the world.
Reserves policy
The trustees policy of keeping one month’s restricted funds continues to be adhered to. This is in place so that the charity can continue to operate should income and/or expenditure vary unexpectedly.
The trustees have determined that the charity should hold a reserve of unrestricted funds equal to no less than two month’s unrestricted expenditure, which would equal to £17,500 At the year end, the charity held in free reserves which makes us compliant with our reserves policy.
2024 was a year in which the grants received from several foundations came to an end. This meant that there needed to be a review of other trusts or foundations that could be sought and applications made.
Investment policy
Currently, TeachBeyond UK does not have any investments. As we develop as a mission organisation, the trustees will review its policy on investments.

Given that some members serve in restricted-access countries, confidentiality and security protocols are strictly enforced. Contingency plans are in place for rapid evacuation if necessary.

-
Review and upgrade financial systems and software.
-
Strengthen TeachBeyond UK’s reputation as a mission of choice for global educational projects.
-

Structure, governance and management
The organisation operates under the governance of a Board of Trustees, chaired by Revd Dr Coleen Jackson, supported by Megan Randolph, Company Secretary.
Dr Jackson and Dr McIlhenny also serve on the TeachBeyond Global Board, where Dr Jackson is Vice Chair.
Two subcommittees oversee specific areas:

-
Ireland Committee
The Trustees who served during the year and up to the date of signature of the financial statements were: Rev A M Thomas
Revd Dr C R Jackson Dr A Mclhenny Mr B Callan Mr S Williams Ms F Binions Ms J M Weaver
Recruitment and appointment of trustees

The operational running of the charity is delegated to the UK National Director and his staff. The powers of appointment or removal of trustees rests with the trustees. During the coming year we will continue to seek new trustees who are able to support our strategic objectives. New trustees are selected from nomination by individual trustees and are wholeheartedly involved in seeing the mission of the charity fulfilled. During 2025 we will continue to seek trustees who are able to support our work in Northern Ireland and work with Christian Schools and Colleges.
There is a minimum of three and a maximum of twelve trustees. The President of TeachBeyond Global and the Vice President for TeachBeyond Europe are ex-officio members in line with our current constitution

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF TEACHBEYOND UK CIO
I report to the Trustees on my examination of the financial statements of TeachBeyond UK CIO (the charity) for the year ended 31 December 2024.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the Trustees of the charity you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 and the Charities Act (Northern Ireland) 2008. You are satisfied that the financial statements of the charity are not required by charity law to be audited and have chosen instead to have an independent examination.
I report in respect of my examination of the charity’s financial statements carried out under section 65 of the Charities Act (Northern Ireland) 2008 and section 145 of the Charities Act 2011. In carrying out my examination I have followed the general Directions given by the Charity Commission for Northern Ireland under section 65(9)(b) of the Charities Act (Northern Ireland) 2008 and the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act 2011.
Independent examiner's statement
Since the charity’s gross income exceeded £250,000, the independent examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 and section 65 of the Charities Act (Northern Ireland) 2008. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants, which is one of the listed bodies.
Your attention is drawn to the fact that the charity has prepared the financial statements in accordance with the relevant version of the Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their financial statements in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) in preference to the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice issued on 1 April 2005 which is referred to in the extant regulations but has now been withdrawn. I understand that this has been done in order for the financial statements to provide a true and fair view in accordance with UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
-
1 accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 63 of the Charities Act 2008 and section 130 of the Charities Act 2011.
-
2 the financial statements do not accord with those records; or
-
3 the financial statements do not comply with the accounting requirements of the Charities Act (Northern Ireland) 2008 and the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of financial statements set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the financial statements give a true and fair view, which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the financial statements to be reached.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024
1 Accounting policies
Charity information
TeachBeyond UK CIO is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation in England and Wales.
1.1 Accounting convention
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the charity's governing document, the Charities Act 2011, the Charities Act (Northern Ireland) 2008, FRS 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" and the Charities SORP "Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)". The charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.
The financial statements 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 the Statement of Recommended Practice for charities applying FRS 102 rather than the version of the Statement of Recommended Practice which is referred to in the Regulations but which has since been withdrawn.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.
1.2 Going concern
At the time of approving the financial statements, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the Trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.
1.3 Charitable funds
Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives.
Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors or grantors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements.
1.4 Income
Income is recognised when the charity is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received.
Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the charity has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.
Legacies are recognised on receipt or otherwise if the charity has been notified of an impending distribution, the amount is known, and receipt is expected. If the amount is not known, the legacy is treated as a contingent asset.

1 Accounting policies
(Continued)
1.5 Expenditure
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement, and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.
Expenditure is classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges are allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.
1.6 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.
1.7 Financial instruments
The charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.
Financial instruments are recognised in the charity's balance sheet when the charity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Basic financial assets
Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.
Basic financial liabilities
Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.
Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of operations from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
Derecognition of financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are derecognised when the charity’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.

(Continued)
1.8 Employee benefits
The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received.
Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the charity is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.
2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements
In the application of the charity’s accounting policies, the Trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
