The John Betts School Foundation
Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2025
The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2025. The trustees have adopted the provisions of Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019).
ORGANISATIONAL STRUCTURE
Directors of The John Betts School Foundation ('TJBSF') are members of the company and trustees of the charity. Up to three at any one time may also be members of the Governing Board of John Betts Primary School (the School)..
The directors of the company during the year, and up to the date of the signing of these accounts, who also served as trustees of the charity, and including those who also served as governors of the School, were as listed on page 1.
The company's memorandum and articles largely replicate the terms of the Trust Deed of the St Peters Hammersmith School's Foundation of which TJBSF is the successor charity.
Trustees are advised by a professional clerk, an investment advisor, property managing agents and others as required from time to time.
Relationship with John Betts School
TJBSF is the successor charity to The St Peter's Hammersmith Schools Foundation which founded and set up John Betts School in 1857. It appoints the majority of members of the governing board of the School to assure compliance with and continuance of the founding vision and ethos.
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with a Uniting Direction made by the Charities Commission under section 251 of the Charities Act 2011. Under this direction, The John Betts School Foundation and St Peter's Hammersmith School Foundation are treated as a single entity for accounting purposes.
TJBSF is not involved in the day to day running of the School and therefore does not incorporate the income and expenditure of the School into its own financial statements.
TJBSF is the freehold owner of the land and buildings used by the School including the playground and school keeper's house. It also holds a 99-year lease at a peppercorn rent of the part of Ravenscourt House fronting the playground which forms part of the school site. These are provided to the John Betts School for the operation of a voluntary-aided, maintained primary school.
Through its investments in property and other investments TJBSF contributes to both funds for the repair and maintenance of the fabric of the building and also provides discretionary grants to advance the education of pupils at the School by making payments to the governing board of the School to be applied by them in the provision of any special benefits of any kind not normally provided by the local education authority for education at the school. The governing board advises the trustees each year (May/June) of where any such monies have been used in the previous year and where they are proposed to be used in the forthcoming year.
Induction and training of new trustees
Before seeking new trustees, the board is guided by the relevant skills, competence and experience required by TJBSF and considers the terms of the original Trust Deed and the ethos of TJBSF and the School. New trustees are appointed after interview by at least two members of the board and approval by the board. New trustees receive induction information and guidance. The induction briefing for new trustees includes coverage of the Charity Commission guidance. The board members receive periodic briefings on regulatory matters, including the Charity Commission's requirements.
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Objectives and aims
The principal objective and aims of TJBSF are the provision of educational facilities through the ownership of the land and buildings of John Betts Primary School, provision of funds for the repair and maintenance of the fabric of the building and provision of grants to the school for any educational benefits of a kind not normally provided by the local education authority. The role of TJBSF is broadly in accordance with the provision of Trusts set up by Dr John Betts in 1857 to maintain and promote the ethos of John Betts School as a voluntary aided primary school providing education of a broadly Christian nature to local children of all faiths and none.
Public benefit
The Trustees of the TJBSF comply with section 17(5) of the Charities Act and in carrying out the aims and objectives have had due regard to the Charity Commission's public benefit guidance.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE
Charitable activities
Significant activities over the year are:
Maintenance and Repair of the School Buildings
During the year, TJBSF contributed to the costs of the maintenance, repair and improvement of the school buildings and facilities.
Enhancement of Education at John Betts School
During the year, the TJBSF contributed towards the cost of teaching and singing at the school.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
Financial position
At the start of the financial year the Foundation's total unrestricted assets of £4,058,160 were split:
-
55% in Unit trusts (See "Other Investments" section)
-
41% in physical property
-
4% cash in the bank
The physical property refers to the remaining investment property in Ravenscourt Road (87), let to two tenants and which will be in need of extensive refurbishment.
At the end of the financial year the Foundation's total unrestricted assets of £3,994,484 were split:
-
55% in Unit trusts (See "Other Investments" section)
-
42% in physical property
-
3% cash in the bank
Aditionally, there is a restricted fund of £20,321 resulting from a donation in 2023 from Kathleen Leedham which was invested in unit trusts and restricted for use by the school on trips for children with limited financial means.
The total assets at the end of the financial year are £4,014,805. The decrease in the value of the Foundation's total assets was due to the revaluation of the investments.
In the year to March 2025, the Foundation's unrestricted deficit was £27,163 (2024: surplus £23,093).
TJBSF accrues income distributions from the Unit Trusts into a deposit account, so funds are available for the enhancement of education at John Betts School, for the repair and maintenance of the remaining investment property and the fabric of the school buildings, and for other purposes in accordance with the Foundation's objectives.

FINANCIAL REVIEW Investment policy and objectives Management and performance of property investments and other investments
Property
The property at 87 Ravenscourt Road was revalued in February 2023 and that valuation is held in the financial statements this year.
Other Investments
The charity holds investments in three unit trusts, specifically designed for charities, in a diversified portfolio.
CCLA's Charities Investment Fund
The Fund is an actively managed, diversified portfolio of assets designed to help protect both present and future beneficiaries from the effects of inflation. It will have an emphasis on equities but will also include property, bonds and other asset classes, which may be either liquid or illiquid in nature.
Savills' Charities Property Fund
The Charities Property Fund is the original and largest tax efficient pooled property vehicle available to all charities in the UK. It is a Common Investment Fund regulated by the Charity Commission and helps c.1,500 charities to invest in commercial real estate in an ethical, responsible and tax-efficient way. The Fund has a strong focus on ESG and looks to improve the environmental credentials of the assets it holds and favours socially beneficial occupiers. The Fund's objective is to invest in property throughout the UK to provide a balanced and diversified portfolio to deliver a high and secure level of income and to maintain the capital value of assets held over the long term.
Sarasin's Endowments Fund
The Fund seeks to provide growth (through increases in investment value and income) of 4% per year more than the Consumer Price Index over a rolling five-year period. It is a global multi-asset portfolio with an integrated socially responsible investment policy.
As at 31st March 2025, 55% (£2,214,526) of the Foundations assets were invested in the unit trusts - 25% with Sarasin, 25% with CCLA and 5% with Savills.
Investment activities are managed in line with the requirements of the Trustee Act 2000. TJBSF's investment policy is a medium-risk approach for the growth of the portfolio of investments. Aside from the remaining investment property at 87 Ravenscourt Road, which is part of the endowment of John Betts' legacy, the three investment managers have discretion about how the investments are managed within the portfolios. The investment targets are to preserve the real value of investments against inflation and to have a yield of 3-4% p.a over the medium term.
During 2023, a restricted donation of £20,122 was received which has been invested with CCLA in a separate fund. The income from this fund can be transferred to the school up to a maximum amount of 10% of the value of the fund and is restricted for the use of contributing to school trips to support children with limited financial means. The value of the fund at the end of the year was £20,321 (2024: £21,315).
The School
During 2021/22, the School joined the London Diocesan Board For Schools Buildings Maintenance Scheme (LDBS), which was established in 1952 to manage Church of England Voluntary Aided Schools in a self-insured manner. Under the scheme LDBS monitors the condition of the buildings and funds so far as possible any necessary repairs, which they review, assess & prioritise each year alongside all their other schools.
TJBSF also assisted the School with the administration of the "1859 John Betts Future Funding Initiative". Parents are invited to make regular termly and monthly donations to the School, via TJBSF to allow donors to remain anonymous to the School. The funds donated are held in a designated bank account to be drawn down on request by the School's governing body. The sums raised support the aims of the charity including education of the children and the school's development priorities.
During 2023/24 TBJSF agreed to gift 80% of the surplus of the foundation's income after deducting costs with a guaranteed minimum amount of £50,000 per annum for 3 years, to be reviewed thereafter, to help pay for specific additional resources currently not funded by the Local Authority grant.

FINANCIAL REVIEW
Reserves policy
The trustees intend to continue to hold reserves of the equivalent of 24 months normal expenditure in cash.
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Governing document
The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust, and constitutes a limited company, limited by guarantee, as defined by the Companies Act 2006.
Risk management
The Trustees diligently monitor the charity's activities to minimise risk by seeking specialised advice on the management of the charity's funds some of which are managed by Sarasin and CCLA, investment firms that specialise in the management of charities' funds and Savills which is a specialised investment fund that allows charities to invest in commercial properties across the UK.
The Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) 2015 requires Trustees to establish a framework for identifying and responding to risks, as well as a methodology for risk management and reporting. The risks considered relate to the operational performance of the charity and the achievement of its aims and objectives.
The Trustees confirm that they have identified the risks to which the charity is exposed and have implemented systems to mitigate those risks. The principal risks relate to the performance of the investments held by the charity, which determines the level of grants the charity is able to make, and the risk that the grants awarded are not spent in accordance with the agreed terms.
To identify relevant risks and appropriate controls, the following factors were considered:
-
The charity's objectives and strategies
-
The nature and scale of the charity's activities
-
External legislation and regulations
-
The operating structure and practices of the charity
-
By proactively managing these risks, the charity aims to enhance its resilience, protect its assets, and increase the
-
likelihood of achieving its mission and objectives.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2025
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of preparing the financial statements
The financial statements of the charitable company, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) 'Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, with the exception of investments and property which are included at market value, as modified by the revaluation of certain assets.
Income
All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.
Expenditure
Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.
Grants offered subject to conditions which have not been met at the year end date are noted as a commitment but not accrued as expenditure.
Tangible fixed assets
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.
Leasehold premises 99 year, 1% per annum.
Heritage assets
The Heritage asset, the premises known as The John Betts Primary School is quoted at a value of £3,500. This sum is referred in the original trust deed when setting out the plans to erect the School as "Cost is envisaged to be no more than £3,500." No revaluation has been made since these times, however the School has been insured at full replacement value of £5,638,325. In previous years the building was insured both by the local council and by the Foundation, this came to end last year when after consultation with the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham it was decided that the Foundation cease insuring the building as they were satisfied adequate cover was being provided under a composite policy taken out by the Council.
Investment property
Investment property is shown at most recent valuation. Any aggregate surplus or deficit arising from changes in fair value is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities.
Taxation
The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities.
Fund accounting
Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.
Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes.
Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.
Financial instruments
The company only enters into basic financial transactions that result in the recognition of financial assets and liabilities like cash and bank balances, trade and other debtors and creditors, loans from banks and other third parties and investments in non-puttable ordinary shares.
Financial assets that are measured at cost and amortised cost are assessed at the end of each reporting period for objective evidence of impairment. If objective evidence of impairment is found, an impairment loss is recognised in profit and loss.
