## **Reserves Policy** 

As the charity has yet to start to operate no reserves policy has been put in place.

## **Structure Governance and Management** 

Transform Schools UK is governed by the CIO constitution established on 1st October 2020. 

## **Trustees** 

The founding trustees of Transform Schools UK are Dr Soma Pujari (Chair) and Rebecca Eastmond.  It is intended that at least three additional trustees will be added, with specific skills including grant-making and impact measurement.  The trustees are required to disclose all relevant interests and withdraw from decisions where a conflict of interest arises. The power of appointing new trustees is vested in the trustees. 

## **Decision-making** 

The trustees hold ultimate responsibility for the policies, activities and assets of the CIO: they agree the strategy, review funding proposals, approve grants, manage fund-raising activities and consider the Trust’s social impact. 

## **Risk Management** 

The CIO was registered at the height of Covid-19 in the UK.  As the UK began to learn how to live with Covid-19, the effects of the pandemic became worse in India - Transform Schools UK’s primary market and all plans for a full rollout of charitable activities were suspended at that point.   As at September 2022, the trustees are planning for a launch of charitable activities as soon as possible.
