## **TRUSTEES' ANNUAL REPORT** 

## **YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2021** 

The trustees, who are also directors for the purposes of company law, present their report and the unaudited financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 July 2021. 

## **OBJECTIVES & ACTIVITIES** 

## **Aims and objectives** 

IFL UK has a vision of a world in which all children, regardless of background, are confidently reading to learn, grow and thrive throughout life. We believe in the power of literacy to transform lives. We innovatively combine corporate volunteering, expert staff and technology to enable the meaningful human interaction that improves reading outcomes for young children. 

## **TutorMate** 

Our flagship programme is TutorMate, an online volunteer reading support programme that helps 5 to 7 yearold children who are struggling to read. 

A shocking 36% of 11-year-olds from disadvantaged backgrounds in England left primary school in 2019 unable to read well. The disruption to schooling caused by the pandemic has been devastating for these children. A recent study by the National Foundation for Educational Research found that the reading attainment of 7-year-olds in late 2020 was already two months behind that of a similar sample from 2017 - equivalent to undoing a third of the progress made to close the attainment gap in primary schools over the last decade. And, more importantly, the learning gap between disadvantaged pupils and their peers had widened to seven months since 2019. 

The TutorMate model targets these struggling readers by partnering with a range of local and national businesses and recruiting their employees as reading tutors. 

Volunteers use a sophisticated internet platform and a voice connection to link from their workplace to a dedicated classroom laptop for 30 minutes a week, during the school day, over one academic year. Up to 10 children in each Year 1 or Year 2 class participate, giving the programme a reach and scale that schools are otherwise unable to achieve. The flexibility of the model makes it attractive to businesses who wish to give their employees a time-efficient way to volunteer. 

TutorMate has been proven to improve the reading enjoyment, ability and confidence of young children from disadvantaged backgrounds. We believe that this flexible, time-efficient model has the potential to galvanise significant numbers of adults to improve the life chances of children whose education has been severely disrupted by the pandemic. 

## **Academic Year 2020-21** 

2020-21 was TutorMate’s third year of operation in England. The programme was implemented in 37 schools across London (24), Leeds (2), Bradford (6) and Doncaster (5). Doncaster schools joined us in January 2021 with generous support from Deloitte. 

Overall, 965 children were supported by volunteer readers from 43 corporate partners, who provided 13, 622 reading sessions from October 2020 to July 2021. The corporate partners who provide volunteers and associated financial sponsorship to sustain TutorMate are listed below. We are very grateful to them all for their support:

The Executive Director led a growing team of part-time staff and part-time contractors to ensure that TutorMate ran effectively for UK volunteers and schools and that participating children received maximum benefit. 

## **Responding to the Covid Pandemic** 

The repercussions of the Covid pandemic dominated the 2020-21 school year. Although children returned to school in September 2020 after many months of home learning, schools were required to make significant

timetable and curriculum adjustments to keep pupils safe and plug learning gaps. Reading therefore started later than hoped in the autumn term of 2020. ‘Burst bubbles’ (where entire classes were required to isolate at home if there was a positive case in the class) led to further disruptions. Finally, the second lockdown and school closures of Jan – March 2021 prevented the majority of TutorMate’s in-school sessions going ahead (although we still continued sessions for vulnerable and key worker children in many schools). 

In response to these exceptional circumstances during the January - March 2021 lockdown, we were proud to be able to build on the success of the summer 2020 TutorMate at Home pilot and rapidly offer reading sessions to over 150 children while they were learning from home. We were only able to do this for families who had consented for IFL to contact them, who had access to technology at home and where an adult was available to supervise the reading sessions. We received immensely positive feedback from tutors and parents alike on the TutorMate Home model, and we’re delighted that our longstanding partner, Janus Henderson Investors, has provided additional financial support for us to expand TutorMate Home in 2021-22 and beyond. 

## **A story of growth** 

Although Covid-19 has led to much uncertainty in the business world during the year, we were encouraged that many new partners decided to join us for 2021-22. Many of our existing corporate partners, building on the positive experience of their volunteers and our effective and rapid response to the pandemic, increased their level of participation and financial support in 2021-22, notably the BGL Group who made a commitment in June 2021 for 300 volunteers and supported our expansion into Peterborough schools. Overall, our partner retention rate from 2020-21 to 2021-22 is 93% with our volunteer growth rate at 68%. 

Feedback from schools was also very positive, with 87% of schools returning for 2021-22 and many increasing the numbers of participating classes. 

We were also delighted to secure, in summer 2021, external funding from two charitable trusts to support our expansion into Middlesbrough and East Sussex in 2021-22. In both of these areas we will be using this funding to enable us to involve community volunteers as volunteer readers as well as staff of our corporate partners. 

## **Impact and Evaluation** 

Unfortunately, Covid closures meant that the research study we had planned with ImpactEd for the 2020-21 school year was also disrupted. Strong findings did emerge from the limited study we were able to conduct, which demonstrated that with statistical significance, the more TutorMate sessions a child had the more they progressed in reading. 

Children with 0-5 sessions achieved only 1.74 reading levels of progress. Children with 21 - 25 sessions achieved 3.41 reading levels of progress. These results suggest that in future (non-Covid) years, participating pupils would see significantly greater progress in reading attainment than non-participants with the same reading challenges. 

Teacher assessments also demonstrated that the more sessions a child received, the more confident and motivated that child was about their own learning (their self-efficacy). Interviews with teachers and parents underlined the value of TutorMate’s 1:1 supported reading model as a way improving reading comprehension and confidence, ensuring children felt special and supported. A follow-up survey showed that 90% of teachers would recommend TutorMate to other teachers. 

TutorMate volunteers reported a deep sense of satisfaction from supporting a child with their reading. They could see their paired child’s progress with reading and remarked how children showed improved social skills. Many were keen to volunteer again.

A series of improvements to our research and evaluation design will be implemented for the 2021-22 evaluation which we hope will not be similarly disrupted. 

## **FINANCES** 

## **Financial Review** 

During the year, IFL UK’s income was £457,377 (2020: £253,750) and expenditure of £263,450 (2020: £197,855). The net surplus for the year was £193,927 (2020: £55,895). 

## **Fundraising** 

IFL UK’s principal funding source is corporate partners. In 2020-21, for each team of 10 volunteers fielded by a business, we asked for financial sponsorship of £3,000. Additional income was also raised from Trusts and Foundations and Major Donors. 

## **Reserves Policy** 

As a newly established charity IFL UK held a low level of reserves in 2020-21. However, the level of unrestricted funding received in year has allowed the Trustees to act on their plans to build up reserves to provide financial stability. We intend to maintain our reserves at a level which is at least equivalent to four months’ worth of current expenditure/running costs. 

It is the policy of IFL UK to continue to fundraise from corporate partners and from Trusts and Foundations to generate sufficient unrestricted income to allow us to further build up our level of reserves. We anticipate that after our early years of operation our level of reserves will increase. 

The Board regularly (twice-yearly) reviews the amount of reserves that are required to ensure that they are adequate to fulfil our continuing obligations. 

## **RISK MANAGEMENT POLICY** 

## **Financial** 

IFL UK operates in a challenging and demanding area where there are very few certainties over funding, particularly following Covid-19. This is inherently risky and as an organization we operate strict financial controls and continually review the situation, including regular forecasting. The annual budgets, reforecasts and management accounts are regularly reviewed.  Key controls used by the charity are: 

- Formal agendas and minutes for board trustees 

- Annual budget and regular monthly accounts 

- An annual business plan with key targets 

The charity has concluded that the Covid-19 outbreak is unlikely to cause any long-term disruption to the charity’s services, and that the charity can continue to operate for the foreseeable future. 

## **Operational** 

The nature of our work presents operational risks. These are managed through the implementation of suitable policies, procedures and processes including staff training, supervision and reporting structures as well as the maintenance of an organizational risk register which is regularly reviewed. Through these the Board of Trustees is satisfied that major risks have been identified and adequately minimized. 

## **Plans for future periods** 

As indicated above, the TutorMate programme will expand in 2021-22. We anticipate that TutorMate will support 1500 children with 1500 volunteers and operate in: Bradford/Dewsbury/Leeds, Doncaster, East Sussex, London, Middlesbrough and Peterborough.

## NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2021 

## **1 Accounting policies**

Assets and liabilities are initially recognized at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy. 

## **1.2 Incoming resources** 

Income comprises grants, donations and other income receivable during the period. 

Income is recognized 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.

Expenditure is recognized on an accruals basis. 

Charitable activities include costs associated with the management and running of programmes, for instance, staff salaries, telephone and communication costs, rent, contractor costs etc. 

Support costs include central functions and shared overhead costs and have been apportioned to activity cost categories on the basis consistent with the use of resources.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2021 

## **1.6 Accumulated funds** 

Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions set by donors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the accounts. Designated funds are funds set aside for specific uses by the Trustees. This includes funds received in advance of an academic year where applicable. 

## **1.7 Going Concern** 

The Trustees consider that as the level of engagement with existing corporate partners continues there are no material uncertainties about the charitable company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Covid-19 has not materially affected the organisation’s ability to operate in the future. 

## **1.8 Financial instruments** 

The charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instrument Issues‘ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments. 

Financial instruments are recognized 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 recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. 

## **1.9 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 amortized. 

## **1.10 Cash and cash equivalents** 

Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account. 

## **1.11 Basic financial liabilities** 

Basic financial liabilities, including creditors are initially recognized at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortized. 

Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortized 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 recognized initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.

## **1.12 Key judgements and assumptions** 

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 those estimates. 

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized 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. 

In the trustee members’ opinion, there are no critical accounting estimates.
