THE BEIS MALKA TRUST

TRUSTEES' REPORT

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025

The trustees are pleased to present the annual report for the year ending 30 June 2025, which has been a very meaningful year of growth, learning and development for the school.

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in the notes to the financial statements and comply with the charity's governing document, the Charities Act 2011 and "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).

Objectives and activities

To advance the education of children and young people aged 2 to 16 years from the Jewish community by providing an educational framework which complies with standards identified by the Department for Children, Schools and Families (now the DfE).

To advance the education of the pupils at Beis Malka Nursery and School by providing and assisting in the provision of facilities beyond that which is required.

The objectives are achieved through the delivery of a vibrant, broad and balanced curriculum. Quality teaching is ensured through the provision of comprehensive CPD opportunities.

The Trustees confirm that they have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the charity's aims and objectives. In planning its activities for the year, as can be seen from this report, the charity recognises that its aims are for the public benefit.

The school uses volunteers during lunch time to supervise children. The school also uses volunteers as assistants in the classroom to support teaching and learning.

Achievements and performance

Excellent results were achieved on all forms of assessment including SATs, GCSE and unit assessments across all departments. This reflects positive strides in learning and achievement in all subjects.

Our youngest students, aged 2-3 years continue to enjoy the new purpose-built setting that offers much space to explore, learn and develop. Our outdoor classroom was the base for much of the learning this term with a particular focus on water play and our transport topic. Having first-hand contact with the weather and nature created a lot of impromptu learning sessions about skies, bees and the ladybirds we loved discovering in the grass. We have introduced new music and movement sessions and the children enjoy creating sounds to familiar songs, as well as a new exercise routine. Baking sessions became an all-time favourite. Constant assessments evidenced how children made excellent progress through well planned activities and wide variety of resources made available.

The Early Years Department, based in Timberwharf Road, continues to offer a wide range of experiential activities, so that our children aged 3-5 can understand the many facets of the exciting world we live in and experience it with all of their senses. These included many short excursions such as listening walks, number walks and nature excursions. They also were enthralled to watch eggs hatch into chickens and a caterpillar turn into a butterfly.

Notable progress was made in reading in Reception class with most Reception leavers had read two additional books in the Read Write Inc series above previous years. This proves that the reading initiatives have been successful.

Special end-of-year and termly events celebrated key learning and developmental milestones and were well attended and received.

In advance of the new academic year, children in the Early Years were well prepared for upcoming transitions through ‘visits’ to the older class and introductions to their future teachers. These made a notable difference to students as transitions were made successfully. Newly registered children were introduced to their first topic ‘All About Yourself’ giving them the confidence and safe space to share about themselves and welcoming them to an open and warm environment. Good routines and a well-developed curriculum has certainly supported this success.

THE BEIS MALKA TRUST

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025

As for the Primary School, notable progress was made by students in each Key Stage. End of year assessment results across classes and subjects were proof to this. Excellent SATs results showed our Year 6 students’ cumulative growth over their years in the primary department.

Many additional events and projects have also enhanced the school experience for students in Years 1 – 6. Notable among these are the A Mile a Day initiative where students came to school early to complete a mile of running around the school yard. National Numeracy Day was celebrated and enjoyed by many as was a very successful PSHE day.

In a very key development in the school, Art has been introduced to students in Years 4 and 5 creating much sensation. Much effort was invested in creating the curriculum, acquiring resources and staff recruitment. This has taken off very well and is already a favourite by students.

A new program is being introduced in KS1 called Heads Up. This was selected to address the overall rise in mental health concerns in students and is designed to give these young children the emotional vocabulary and early tools to express themselves when they are experiencing hardship and to help themselves cope with fears and stress.

Simultaneously, more students presenting with academic and mental health challenges have been identified for early intervention and plans have been customized to support them. External agencies including WHAMS and Relief have provided us with guidance and support. A child psychologist from WHAMS has been at the school once a month and has supported staff in identifying and dealing with struggling children, and has also advised parents how to support their child.

Students were vibrantly engaged in activities marking anti-bullying week creating an atmosphere of unity and high expectations. Notably, the ‘I Choose Respect’ programme made a great impact on students with the chant heard in classrooms across the year groups.

At Secondary level, students continued to say that they felt happy and safe at school. All students made excellent progress and GCSE results reflected the hard work of students and staff.

To promote goodwill, volunteering and sharing, the school launched a Fundraiser for Noa Girls whilst also promoting a healthy lifestyle. The girls used cookery skills to make a healthy salads and a smoothie bar that they sold during breaktimes. They were overwhelmingly successful, raising a stunning £3,000 that was deeply appreciated and acknowledged with a heartfelt note that is hanging in a prominent place in the school. This fundraiser was especially meaningful to students because Noa Girls have been giving them the tools to improve their emotional wellbeing through a number of mental wellbeing sessions they deliver at the school each year.

A new behaviour scheme has been rolled out, and now in the early stages of implementation. Students are earning credits for cooperation, effort and consistent application, while reminders keep early signs of misbehaviour in check. This has already had a great impact further improving the learning atmosphere for all.

Additional career guidance sessions and courses included Business Enterprise, Emergency First Aid. These were thoroughly enjoyed and greatly enhanced the knowledge and preparedness of students across year 6 – 11.

Students in Year 10 and 11 benefitted from two special overnight retreats for 2 days each. The division of responsibilities amongst the students ensured that all had a part in preparing either the décor, program or culinary delights culminating in a fantastic experience in an enabling environment. The rural setting, relaxed ambience and beautiful atmosphere engendered much happiness, friendship and improved general well-being.

THE BEIS MALKA TRUST

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025

In another very special annual event, secondary school students produced a dazzling performance showcasing their singing, dancing and acting talent. All parts of the performance were created and led by the pupils themselves. This empowered pupils with many hard skills such as costume design, sewing, dancing, choreography etc as well as soft-skills including team-work, time-management, problem-solving and budgeting. The narrative took the rivetted audience back to Eastern Europe in the 1700s and followed the plot of an innkeeper who had his entire savings stolen by his trusted cook only to be returned a year later. This carried a strong message of resilience and hope, and that rectifying misdemeanours was always a way forward.

A very beautiful music concert was also staged by students in Year 8. As they worked towards their ABRSM certification, each at their own level, they were ready to spread joy to their family in their audience through their heart-warming music.

In our constant mission to improve provision, Rabbi Yodaiken LLE has continued to deliver CPD training sessions for staff in all departments. Notable developments were made.

The school has bought into the CPOMS system as a method of recording student performance, wellbeing and behavior. Staff have been trained and further training is expected.

Once again, new students were elected to the student forums of each department. The process saw a number of students nominated in each class each of whom presented their manifesto to their classmates which was then followed by a vote.

The safety of our pupils is at the heart of everything we do. Policies and procedures were reviewed so that they remained responsive to the times and in line with statutory requirements. These were shared extensively with stakeholders and students. DSLs from all departments met regularly to create a cohesive forum to share updates, anonymous case studies, training measures and ways to ensure their staff are committed to compliance. Personal safety sessions were once again delivered to students in all departments empowering students of all ages to protect themselves.

Financial review

The results for the year are shown in the attached financial statements.

The principal funding sources during the year were government grants and parental contributions

The risks and uncertainties facing the school are primarily the rising costs in all areas. Concurrently,the trustees acknowledge that many parents are struggling due to the cost-of-living crisis and this has impacted the contributions they are able to make to the school. This was a difficult decision, impacting our commitment to supporting the physical wellbeing of our students amidst rising operational costs and the cost-of-living crisis affecting our families.

The Trustees aim to keep reserves of one month's wages, approximately £180,000. Although the charity does not hold reserves at the year end, the trustees are confident that the increased income will enable the charity to rebuild these.

Going Concern

After making appropriate enquiries, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. Further details regarding the adoption of the going concern basis can be found in the accounting policies.

THE BEIS MALKA TRUST

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025

Future developments

To meet public demand, the school intends to open an additional Early Years setting for children aged 9–23 months. This large-scale project will include staff employment and training, securing additional premises and project planning for effective delivery of a quality service.

Additional music sessions are in the pipeline for students in Key Stage 2. In addition to the educational benefits, these will be planned to enhance their cognitive, social, and emotional advantages, including enhanced brain development, improved language and reasoning, and better memory retention. These lessons will cultivate discipline, patience, and confidence, while offering a creative outlet and boosting academic performance in subjects like mathematics.

In the SEN department another calming corner will be created so that children who need a safe space to calm down or unwind between or during lessons. It is anticipated that this will enhance their behavioural and academic performance. A new sensory room is also planned for the Early Years department in the Timberwharf premises.

Structure, governance and management

The Beis Malka Trust is a Registered Charity (Charity no. 284447) and is constituted as an unincorporated association. Its objects, powers and other constitutional matters are set out in its Constitution. The management of the charity is the responsibility of the trustees who are elected and co-opted under the terms of the Trust deed. The charity is managed and controlled by the trustees, who meet regularly.

The trustees do not intend to appoint any new trustees for the foreseeable future. Should the situation change in the future, the trustees will apply suitable recruitment induction and training procedures.

THE BEIS MALKA TRUST

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025

Trustee Dated: 31 March 2026

THE BEIS MALKA TRUST

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE BEIS MALKA TRUST

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of The Beis Malka Trust (the ‘charity’) for the year ended 30 June 2025 which comprise the statement of financial activities, the balance sheet, the statement of cash flows and notes to the financial statements, including significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

In our opinion, the financial statements:

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Conclusions relating to going concern

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Other information

The other information comprises the information included in the annual report other than the financial statements and our auditor's report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.

We have nothing to report in this regard.

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

THE BEIS MALKA TRUST

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT (CONTINUED) TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE BEIS MALKA TRUST

Responsibilities of trustees

As explained more fully in the statement of trustees' responsibilities, the trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

We have been appointed as auditor under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with the Act and relevant regulations made or having effect thereunder.

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud.

We are not responsible for preventing non-compliance and cannot be expected to detect non-compliance with all laws and regulations - this responsibility lies with management with the oversight of the directors.

The extent to which our procedures can detect irregularities, including fraud, is detailed below.

Owing to the inherent limitations of an audit, there is an unavoidable risk that some material misstatements of the financial statements may not be detected, even though the audit is properly planned and performed in accordance with the ISAs (UK).

THE BEIS MALKA TRUST

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT (CONTINUED) TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE BEIS MALKA TRUST

The potential effects of inherent limitations are particularly significant in the case of misstatement resulting from fraud because fraud may involve sophisticated and carefully organized schemes designed to conceal it, including deliberate failure to record transactions, collusion or intentional misrepresentations being made to us.

A further description of our responsibilities is available on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: https:// www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor's report.

Other matters

Your attention is drawn to the fact that the charity has prepared financial statements in accordance with "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)" (as amended) in preference to the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice issued on 1 April 2005 which is referred to in the extant regulations but has now been withdrawn.

This has been done in order for the financial statements to provide a true and fair view in accordance with current Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.

Use of our report

This report is made solely to the charity’s trustees, as a body, in accordance with Part 4 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charity’s trustees those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and the charity’s trustees as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

THE BEIS MALKA TRUST

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025

1 Accounting policies

Charity information

The Beis Malka Trust is a charity. The registered office is 93 Alkham Road, London, N16 6XD.

1.1 Accounting convention

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the charity's governing document, the Charities Act 2011, FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” (“FRS 102”) and the Charities SORP "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). The charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.

The financial statements have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a true and fair view. This departure has involved following the Statement of Recommended Practice for charities applying FRS 102 rather than the version of the Statement of Recommended Practice which is referred to in the Regulations but which has since been withdrawn.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, [modified to include the revaluation of freehold properties and to include investment properties and certain financial instruments at fair value]. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.

1.2 Going concern

At the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.

1.3 Charitable funds

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives.

Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors or grantors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements.

1.4 Income

Income is recognised 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.

Donations are recognised once the charity has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount.

1.5 Expenditure

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.

Grants payable are charged in the year when the offer is made except in those cases where the offer is conditional, such grants being recognised as expenditure when the conditions attaching are fulfilled. Grants offered subject to conditions which have not been met at the year end are noted as a commitment, but not accrued as expenditure.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025

1 Accounting policies

(Continued)

1.6 Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.

No amortisation has been provided on freehold land and buildings and long leaseholds as the assets are kept in good repair and their useful lives and estimated residual values are such that depreciation is not material. Assets are reviewed annually for any impairment. The trustees are of the opinion that the recoverable amount is in excess of the carrying amount and feel that no provision for impairment is required.

Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:

Fixtures and fittings 17.5% reducing balance Motor vehicles 25% reducing balance Playground equipment 17.5% reducing balance

The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in the statement of financial activities.

1.7 Impairment of fixed assets

At each reporting end date, the charity reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any).

1.8 Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.

1.9 Financial instruments

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

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

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 amortised.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025

1 Accounting policies

(Continued)

Basic financial liabilities

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

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

Derecognition of financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are derecognised when the charity’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.

1.10 Employee benefits

The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee's services are received.

1.11 Leases

Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessees. All other leases are classified as operating leases.

Assets held under finance leases are recognised as assets at the lower of the assets fair value at the date of inception and the present value of the minimum lease payments. The related liability is included in the balance sheet as a finance lease obligation. Lease payments are treated as consisting of capital and interest elements. The interest is charged to net income/(expenditure) for the year so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability.

1.12 Government grants

Government grants relating to tangible fixed assets are recorded as deferred income and released to the Statement of financial activities over the expected useful lives of the assets concerned.

A grant that specifies performance conditions is recognised in income when the performance conditions are met. Where a grant does not specify performance conditions it is recognised in income when the proceeds are received or receivable. A grant received before the recognition criteria are satisfied is recognised as a liability.

2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements

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 these estimates.

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