COMPASS EDUCATION

Trustee’s report

For the year ended 31[st] March 2024

About us:

Compass Education was founded and registered with the Charity Commission for a charitable status in 2021. We are small grassroot based education focused organisation and our main aim is to promote, support educational attainment of refugees and asylum seekers and other disadvantaged members of our local community.

Our strengths are having qualified teachers with lived experience in our board of trustees and as members of our team of volunteers who are multilingual to appropriate support those children and their families with their educational needs. We also have connection with the local schools with which those children attend, and our chair of trustees holds the role of a governor of a local school. Thus, we have thorough understanding of the children and young people’s educational challenges and experience in addressing those needs to increase their educational potential and enhance their aspirations.

Vision

Inspiring and transforming individuals and communities through education, where no one is left behind.

Mission

To empower disadvantaged communities through education by providing appropriate skills, training and resources, and outreach support services to become more resilient and independent in their lives.

Aims

• To provide literacy and numeracy sessions to adults in the UK and empowerment training overseas.

• To enhance community integration by removing language and communication barriers

• To improve educational attainments of children through homework provision and booster sessions.

• To provide educational outreach by working with parents, local schools and other local service providers.

• Facilitate and promote educational research to influence policy and practice.

•  Inclusivity

•  Transparency

To empower disadvantaged community members and to support their educational attainment to become more independence, achieve resilience and better integration. Our main activities are:

• a) Adult ESOL class : We deliver weekly ESOL class for our adult learners that benefit our adult students to learn the English language, and it’s led by an experienced tutor. This is aimed at improving their literacy, communication, and social interaction skills.

• b) Drop-in session: We facilitate much needed drop-in session that responds to community needs in interpretation, form filling, benefit application and liaising with utility companies and other core services that the community needs help with.

• c) Homework club provision : We regularly provide weekly school homework support provision to disadvantaged refugee children and young people. As a result of those limited support, many were able to catch up with their peers in school, improved their attitude to learning and overall school performance in core subjects.

• d) Educational outreach: We engage with educational outreach activities in our local schools that includes providing refugee voices at governor’s level and school consultation forums by sharing our expertise and in-depth experiences, and to facilitate refugee week at school assemblies to create better awareness and to achieve better inclusion outcomes for our target children.

Governance, Structure and Management

Legal structure: Compass Education is a registered charity (Registration number: 1196810), and it is constituted by a constitution. It is governed by the articles set out in its constitution and are run by trustees with diverse lived experiences and from different professional backgrounds and experiences to benefit and enrich the charity’s pursuit of its objectives.

Trustees: Our current trustee are:

• Abdirashid Ahmed (Chairman),

• Moulid Hujale (Member), and

• Rawda Farah (Member)

Staff and volunteers: As result of the grant funding, we secured towards the end of this reported year, we were able to hire a part-time programme coordinator to deliver our main activities including ESOL, conversational café’ and drop-in sessions. Two dedicated volunteers support our activities including running our homework club sessions, and we strongly believe it could have been difficult without the selfless contribution of our volunteers.

Membership: To strengthen our capacity and performance, Compass Education is a registered member of Bolton CVS, which provides access to information, funding sources and trainings, as well as opportunities to share knowledge and network with other local charity sector members.

• a) Adult ESOL class: During this reporting year we have facilitated ESOL class and conversation Café’ sessions in our classroom and office centre in 12 Bankfield Street. Both the sessions were based in a classroom setting and small group conversation, and one to one language practice support. 18 people have benefitted from those lessons and sessions.

• b) Drop- in Support: This is one of the most popular services we provide, our part-time staff and volunteers support vulnerable community members with their various inquiries that range from housing, education, employments, benefits, utilities and other services. These drop-in sessions are available two days a week and during 2023/2024 we have supported 58 individual cases and inquiries.

• c) Homework club: We provide homework club support to school-aged children at our centre to improve their educational attainment. We have supported children from Key Stage 1, 2, 3 and GCSE level in Maths, English and science. The number of children and young people supported during the year was 21 students.

• d) Educational outreach activity: Compass Education have engaged 3 outreach activities during 2023/2024. They included parents’ forum, youth career talk and a friendship themed session for a group of youth to understand better qualities of a good friend and ways not to succumb to negative peer pressure and other destructive youth behaviours. More than 40 participants have attended those sessions.
