## **(A Company Limited by Guarantee)** 

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2023** 

The Trustees present their annual report together with the financial statements of the Charity for the 1 August 2022 to 31 July 2023. The Annual Report serves the purposes of both a Trustees' report and a directors' report under company law. The Trustees confirm that the Annual Report and financial statements of the charitable company comply with the current statutory requirements, the requirements of the charitable company's governing document and the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102) (effective 1 January 2019). 

Since the Charity qualifies as small under section 382 of the Companies Act 2006, the Strategic Report required of medium and large companies under the Companies Act 2006 (Strategic Report and Directors' Report) Regulations 2013 has been omitted. 

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** 

## **a. Charitable objectives** 

The Charity was formed for the purpose of the advancement of education for the benefit of the public. This is to be done in two ways: 

(i) by the provision of scholarships, bursaries and grants to students from the developing world at colleges and departments at the University of Cambridge, as well as other highly-ranked universities in the UK. 

(ii) The development of collaborative initiatives between such universities and similar institutions of higher education in the Commonwealth (in particular but not limited to Malaysia) and beyond, for the advancement of knowledge for the benefit of the peoples of those particular nations. There is a particular emphasis on education, health and general welfare prompted by sustainable development. 

In setting objectives and planning for activities, the Trustees have given due consideration to general guidance published by the Charity Commission relating to public benefit, including the guidance 'Public benefit: running a charity (PB2)'. 

## **b. Main activities undertaken to further the Charity's purposes for the public benefit** 

During the period covered by this report, the Cambridge Education and Development Trust (CEDT) continued to fund its wholly owned subsidiary, CATs Step Limited (CSL). The purpose of CSL is to develop and market English language learning software (previously developed by the Charity) on a not-for-profit basis, in developing countries, and elsewhere. All surpluses will be remitted to CEDT, to enable CEDT’s charitable activities. 

## **ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE** 

## **a. Review of activities** 

The focus of the Charity continues to be on establishing plans for the future. It donated £36,119 to CSL to fund its work on the English language learning software. The Charity also donated £10,000 to the Cambridge Malaysian Education and Development Trust to fund its work, which is aligned with the objectives of the Charity.

**TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2023** 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

## **a. Performance and position** 

Total income from donations amounted to £49,134 (2022: £3,000). Total expenditure amounted to £47,695 (2022: £1,137), of which £46,119 (2022: £NIL) related to grant expenditure. The net surplus was £1,439 (2022: £1,863). 

At the year end, unrestricted funds totalled £4,045 (2022: £2,606). 

## **b. Reserves policy** 

The Trustees maintain reserves to manage unexpected fluctations in income and expenditure. The policy of the Charity is to maintain sufficient reserves to fund 12 months' support and governance expenditure (target range of £1,500 to £2,000). The current level of reserves is higher than this amount. The Trustees intend to use the surplus to fund grant giving in the 2023/24 financial year to support the wholly owned subsidiary. Further detail is included below. 

## **c. Going concern** 

At the end of July 2023, the Cambridge Education and Development Trust (CEDT) had net assets of £4,045, while its wholly owned subsidiary, CATs Step Ltd (CSL), had net liabilities of £22,241. The trustees of CEDT are confident that CEDT and CSL can continue to meet their liabilities as they fall due. This confidence is based on the resolution passed on 13 May 2023 by the trustees of CEDT’s sister trust, the Cambridge Malaysian Education and Development Trust, which works in collaboration with the Malaysian Commonwealth Studies Centre. This resolution is to support CEDT and CSL until July 2025 based upon agreed spending plans. Meanwhile, CSL continues to seek to exploit its English language online learning and assessment technology (known as CATs). 

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT** 

## **a. Constitution** 

The Charity is registered as a charitable Company limited by guarantee and was set up by a Memorandum of Association on 17 February 2017.  The Charity is a registered charity with number 1172623. 

The principal object of the Charity is to provide the advancement of education for the benefit of the public. 

## **b. Methods of appointment or election of Trustees** 

The management of the Charity is the responsibility of the Trustees who are elected and co-opted under the terms of the Articles of Association. 

## **c. Organisational structure and decision-making policies** 

All decisions made by the Charity are made by the Trustees as a whole. There is no executive management committee delegated to make decisions as the charity does not have any employees.

## **STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITIES** 

The Trustees (who are also the directors of the Charity for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees' Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). 

Company law requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial . Under company law, the Trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Charity and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to: 

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

- observe the methods and principles of the Charities SORP (FRS 102); 

- make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards (FRS 102) have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2023** 

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF CAMBRIDGE EDUCATION AND DEVELOPMENT TRUST ('the Charity')** 

I report to the charity Trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Charity for the year ended 31 July 2023. 

## **RESPONSIBILITIES AND BASIS OF REPORT** 

As the Trustees of the Charity (and its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act'). 

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Charity are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of the Charity's accounts carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act. 

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S STATEMENT** 

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters, other than those fully detailed below, have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect: 

1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Charity as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or 

2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a 'true and fair' view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or 

4. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities. 

I confirm that there are no other matters to which your attention should be drawn to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached. 

## **OTHER MATTER** 

I draw your attention to note 2.3, which indicates that the Charity and its subsidiary, Cats Step Limited, rely on the support of a related charity. My conclusion is not modified in respect of this matter.

## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2023** 

## **1. GENERAL INFORMATION** 

The Charity is a private company limited by guarantee and incorporated in England and Wales. The members of the Charity are the Trustees named on page 1. In the event of the Charity being wound up, the liability in respect of the guarantee is limited to £1 per member of the Charity.

This resolution is to support CEDT and CSL until July 2025 based upon agreed spending plans.

Charitable activities and governance costs are costs incurred on the company's operations, including support costs and costs relating to the governance of the Charity allocated to charitable activities. 

Expenditure on charitable activities is incurred on directly undertaking the activities which further the Charity's objectives, as well as any associated support costs. 

Grants payable are charged in the year when the offer is made except in those cases where the offer is conditional, such grants being recognised as expenditure when the conditions attaching are fulfilled. Grants offered subject to conditions which have not been met at the year end are noted as a commitment, but not accrued as expenditure. 

All expenditure is inclusive of irrecoverable VAT.

Investments in subsidiaries are valued at cost less provision for impairment.

## **2.8 LIABILITIES AND PROVISIONS** 

Liabilities are recognised when there is an obligation at the Balance Sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably. 

Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the Charity anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide.
