**Year**|| |||**Unrestricted Funds (Reserves)**|£64,608|£54,778|| |||**Ratio of Reserves to Annual**
**Operating Expenditure**|55.87%|69.1%|| |||Our reserves result from accumulated unrestricted surpluses.
We intend to maintain our reserves at a level which is at least equivalent
to a rental deposit of six month’s rent plus one term’s operational
expenditure. This is to mitigate against our principal risks of fluctuating|||| **TAR** March **2012** 3 pupil numbers and in the eventuality of having to find new rental premises. The Charity maintains a rigorous budgeting procedure every year and forecasts are reviewed termly to ensure our expenditure remains in line with budget and that reserves are adequate to fulfil our continuing obligations. ## **Details of any funds materially in deficit** N/A ## **Further financial review details (Optional information)** You **may choose** to include additional information, where relevant about: - the charity’s principal sources of funds (including any fundraising); - how expenditure has supported the key objectives of the charity; - Investment policy and objectives including any ethical investment policy adopted. Our principal source of revenue is school fees. Every year, school fees are determined at the lowest possible level required to maintain operational expenditure considering the fluctuation of pupils throughout the year. Our main expenses are rent and teaching costs. In the year to 31 August 2022, the Petite Ecole d’Ealing has made a profit of £9,829 which is explained by the following: - Due to Covid, we had to budget a cleaning cost with the hosting school. This cost has been removed after the half-term holidays in October leading to surplus of £8,400. - A grant of £1,065 was received in July 2022 to finance Teachers trainings of the next financial year. ## **Section F Other optional information** ## **Section G Declaration** **The trustees declare that they have approved the trustees’ report above.** ## **Signed on behalf of the charity’s trustees** **Signature(s) Full name(s)** Thomas DESODT **Position (eg Secretary, Chair,** Chair **etc)** **Date** 05/06/2023 **TAR** March **2012** 4 CHARITY COMMISSION FOR ENGLAND AND WALES Independent examlner's report on the accounts Section A Indcpcnd¢nt Examiner's Report R•portto tho tru8tee•l On aGcounts forth• y•ar 31ffj812022 Chavlty no IHanyl 1182966 I rewt to thetrL* on myexamination oftm a¢c4yJnts ofth• at*)ve R#pon•lbll¢l•* *nd h• Ilw In￿00* ofhry Tnmt. you ftrtht wtpwaiion 2011 IfvWI.
