Financial review, achievements and performance
On 9 March 2023 CLASSS (1144153) became a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO). This involved CLASSS obtaining a new charity number (1202276) and bank account. Funds were transferred on 29 September 2023.
Objectives and activities
CLASSS is a registered charity established by Anne Williamson and Abdul Jalloh in 2008. It was designed for the public benefit to help young people develop their educational potential. It has roots in our predecessor CHALCS dating back to the 1980s.
We are a supplementary school that offers evening education classes, based on smallgroup tuition, to primary and secondary school age children in need of extra help with their schoolwork, to help children improve their fundamental skills in Maths and English. We aim to tailor tuition to the specific needs of each individual student and encourage the involvement of parents and schools to help achieve this goal. Classes run on Thursday evenings between 5.45pm and 7.30pm during term time. Our objectives are:
-
To provide high quality tutoring in fundamental English and Maths skills
-
To create a welcoming, inclusive environment for students and volunteers
-
To build confidence and resilience in young people.
CLASSS is a member of Leeds City Council’s Supplementary Schools network and has achieved the Bronze Award from the National Resource Centre for Supplementary Education.
Structure, governance and management
Volunteers are an essential part of our work. Without the support of our volunteer tutors, CLASSS would fail to exist. Volunteers are involved in teaching, classroom management and all other regular weekly activities. All trustees also give their time freely, as does the Volunteer Coordinator.
The existing trustees are responsible for the recruitment of new trustees. In selecting new trustees, we seek to identify people who can regularly attend meetings and are willing to volunteer their time to support the work of CLASSS. Potential trustees are invited to trustee meetings as observers and are given details of the charity’s aims and activities, and if all agree, they are then proposed as new trustees at subsequent trustee meetings. This process allows due consideration of the person’s eligibility, personal competence, specialist knowledge and skills.
CLASSS operates in accordance with its written Constitution.
