## Section D                      Achievements and performance 

## **Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year** 

Oasis English Language School uses premises in Burlington Road, 

Ipswich - a building that is owned by Ipswich International Church. The 

Church gives the School free use. It is ideally located in the area of 

highest need in Ipswich where the last census showed that up to 20% of 

residents could not speak English. 

As the previous Director (the only paid employee) left soon after the start of Covid-19 the Trustees appointed a new Director who commenced on 1 July 2021 (p/t 12 hrs per week). 

Following Covid-19 the School re-opened in September 2021. 

A creche is provided and the School continues to be the only language school in Ipswich that provides this facility. 

There were 79 students over the academic year from 26 nations. 

A free lunch was provided for students, which offers further opportunity for informal conversation practice. 

Over the course of the year some students made sufficient progress to enable them to access courses at other institutions eg. Colchester Institute, and some other students gained volunteering opportunities with other local charities or employment.
