Our charity cooperates with other Czech and Slovak schools in United Kingdom and is a member of Association of Czech and Slovak Schools in UK. Our school also closely cooperates with Czech Embassy in London, Ministry of Education of the Czech Republic, and Ministry of Foreign Affairs of The Czech Republic.

Summary of the main
activities undertaken for the
public benefit in relation to
these objects (include within
this section the statutory
declaration that trustees have
had regard to the guidance
issued by the Charity
Commission on public
benefit)		 The primary objective of Czech School Berkshire is to promote and
advance the education of the public in the Czech language, history,
geography, culture, and heritage.
The Trustees have considered the Charity Commission’s Guidance on
public benefit and concluded that they fulfilled their duties in the light of
that guidance.

Our charity offers following:
-
Czech & Slovak Sunday Preschool playgroup for children from 0-
4 years old and their parents.
-
Czech Sunday school/online classes for children 4-15 years old
-
Czech online tuition classes for adults
-
Czech & Slovak cultural events through the year

operates on pay as you go system.

Our Czech tuition classes for adults are open to any adults wishing to learn Czech as a second language. The number of students is limited by class capacity. Since 2021 the classes only take place online every week. Such an arrangement benefits both students and teachers. During the reporting period there were 4 adult classes available offering range of levels from complete beginners to an advanced level.

All our classes are closely connected and are designed to be available at the same time to suit all family members’ needs and very often involve participation of all members of individual families. Older children are studying in our children’s classes, while younger sibling/s is/are with one or both parents in the playgroup setting or alternatively one of the parents is involved as a volunteer at school or playgroup setting during its duration.

We believe that attendance of Czech School Berkshire leads to strengthening of children’s bilingual abilities and promotes awareness of their Czech background and roots, which in future might be important for their relationship with their families and the Czech Republic as a country. Czech School Berkshire offers families support in teaching children or adults’ Czech language as a first/second language by providing them with the environment where Czech language can be used, promoted and learnt.

The school also provides other culturally rich activities & national celebrations throughout its academic year, as these events provide students and other members of the community with many opportunities to understand the fundamentals of the Czech Republic’s history, geography, and ethnic lifestyle.

Summary of activities organised during reporting period:

Project No. 1 - Playgroup

In 2023-2024 school year our Czech-Slovak playgroup met twice a month and was a very popular gathering place for parents with young children. The group provides an environment where families can speak their native language without hesitation and where children can learn about Czech and Slovak traditions. The group has become increasingly popular over time and is attended by a growing number of children under the age of 4. This year, we purchased new toys and equipment, and our largest expense remains the rental of the premises.

Project No. 2 - Czech Children's Library 2023-2024

We officially launched our children's library in February 2018. Due to limited storage space, our library is currently operating on a limited basis. Until the situation with the library is resolved, we made a decision not to invest in expanding our book collection.

Project No. 3 - October Halloween 2023

Our school organizes a Halloween celebration every year for our young students, mainly for the visitors of our playgroup. The celebration includes spooky costumes, good food and drinks, a disco, and fun games

and competitions for children.

Project No. 4 - Theater Performance by Viola, November 2023

To our great delight, artists from the Viola group visited us and performed a show for our students called "Endele Vendele". The event was very successful, and our community members from both our school and the wider area appreciated it and hope that similar events will take place soon.

Project No. 5 - Christmas Concert, December 2023

Our Christmas concert took place for the first time in 2023, and we hope to continue this tradition every year. Children from our Czech school and other Czech schools in the UK sang beautiful Czech and international Christmas carols together in London, which they had been practicing during the autumn.

Project No. 6 - Children's Disco, March 2024

We organized a disco for children again this year, which was very well attended and successful. We plan to continue this tradition in the coming years. Through this event, we provide our students with an opportunity to experience Czech music and culture, and we believe that both children and their parents enjoy the Czech songs.

Project No. 7 - Coffee place, 2023 - 2024

Coffee is a popular drink among our teachers, assistants, parents, and volunteers from the playgroup. We decided to invest in a high-quality coffee machine and a wide range of coffee to make our adult members' time at the Czech school more enjoyable.

Project No. 8 - St. Nicholas's Party, December 2023

The St. Nicholas's party is one of our biggest events of the year. This event is popular among parents from the entire Berkshire, Surrey, and Oxfordshire areas. In 2023, 110 children attended the party with their parents and siblings. We are glad that we can provide our students with the tradition of visiting St. Nicholas, the devil, and the angel, as this tradition is unknown in the UK.

Project No. 9 - School Birthday, February 2024

Our school celebrates its founding every year by cutting a cake with our students. In 2024, the school celebrated its 8th birthday.

Project No. 10 - Brookwood project, Autumn 2023 and Spring 2024

Czech School Berkshire purchased a wreath for each event in the name of the entire Association of Czech Schools in the UK to honor the memory of the victims of World War I & II.

Project No. 11 - Easter, April 2024

The Easter celebration took place within individual classes, where teachers introduced the children to Easter traditions.

Project No. 12 - Children's Day - Water Sports, June 2024

About 100 children from our Czech-Slovak community attended the event, which included water sports on the River Thames for children, awards for young athletes, bouncy castles for kids, a stall with CzechSlovak food, and sales stalls with langos, hot drinks, and refreshments.

Project No. 13 - Family Camping, July 2024

The family camping trip was very successful, with traditional barbecue, singing by the campfire with a guitar, and plenty of games for children during the day. The camping trip in 2024 was attended by a huge number

of members from our Czech-Slovak community.

Project No. 14 - End of School Year Celebration, June 2024 At the end of the school year, we consider it important to reward our children for their hard work. After all, they attend our Czech school in their free time - on weekends, on Sundays. Each child received a book.

Additional details of objectives and activities (Optional information)

Our volunteers form a very important part of our charity. During the reporting period we had approximately 20 volunteers, who contributed to running of all parts of our charity.

You may choose to include further statements, where relevant, about:

Our playgroup setting is entirely managed by volunteers. Volunteers also carry out an important role of teaching assistants in the individual classes. Volunteers support our teaching staff in the reception area and supervise safety of our students in the rented premises. Our children’s library is also run by volunteers. Our Trustees appreciate that without support and huge contribution of our volunteers we would not be able to organize any of our cultural events which are attended by large volume of people.

Section D Achievements and performance

Summary of the main During the reporting period our school offered 11 classrooms (present or achievements of the charity online) for children with total number of 102 pupils and 4 teaching classes during the year for adults with the total number of 18 pupils: - 18 teaching Sundays for 102 pupils - 33 weekly online classes for 15 adult students - 18 playgroups

By the end of July 2024, the charity employed 12 regular teachers, 3 supply teachers, and a Managing Director.

Trustees believe that through the devotion and energy of all members of school – the trustees, Managing Director, teachers, volunteers, students, and their parents, an outstanding team has been established and maintained. Many students made progress in their learning and continue to strengthen their relationship within the community. Last but not least, several students sit annual exams in Czech schools in the Czech Republic to prove their knowledge of Czech language and our school helps them achieve their goals.

Trustees are especially proud to have modernised the school’s teaching methods. The school transitioned from less effective bi-monthly teaching for adults to much more effective and convenient online weekly teaching. Our charity also maintains a successful partnership with several universities in the Czech Republic. We offer university students the opportunity to join our school as internship students through various undergraduate programs.

Further financial review details (Optional information)

You may choose to include additional information, where relevant about:

The charity activities for the reporting period were mainly funded from tuition fees collected from its students with small contribution from fundraising activities & small donations.

Section F Other optional information

Future plans:

Our primary objective is to relocate to new premises, Woodley CofE Primary School, in the second half of 2024. This move will enable us to bring all our classrooms and playgroup together under one roof, fostering greater collaboration among teachers and staff, and strengthening our community spirit.

The Trustees plan to continue their current strategy, focusing on maintaining and enhancing the quality of education provided. To achieve this, the teachers and Trustees aim to develop structured methods for each class, ensuring that the curriculum is tailored to meet the individual needs and levels of all students.

To secure the charity's financial future, the Trustees will continue to explore new funding opportunities. Additionally, we hope to attract more volunteers and teaching staff, enabling us to expand our services to a larger number of students and broaden the range of activities we offer to the community.

Looking ahead, we are excited to announce that we are planning a Christmas concert for December 2025, featuring a popular Czech actor and singer.
