SARUM ST MICHAEL EDUCATIONALCHARITY REPORTOFTHE MANAGING TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024 Of significance are the number of applicants wishing to become Religious Education {RE) teachers. The Charity has a strong relationship with Winchester University to whose students studying RE PGCE are awarded a bursary. Students sludying the RE PGCE elsewhere are also entitled to the bursary. The Charity makes awards lo organisations such as churches, schools and not for profit organisations which meet the requirements of the Objects. Information gardIng the criteria and the Objects of the Charity Is available on the website and by request over the telephone, post or email. Applicants are invited to complete an application form, along WFth the provision of references. As a rule funding for future years is not awarded expt in the case of the Salisbury Di0san Board of Education. Applicants completing a course over several years must reapply eaGh year. ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE In February of the previous year Govemors agreed a grant spend budget of £205.000 against a similar perntage breakdown as the years before. Split of grant spend agreed was for Personal (inc bursaries) 45 %, Parishes 2 %, Schools 3 % and Corporate 50 % . The number of applications received was similar to that of previous years at 72. Albeit during this reporting period more were rejected. Care was taken to record why applications were rejected which will prove useful data. Primarily most did not meet the Objects of the Charity or were out of SGope on the basis of geography. The award allocation mostly fell within the percentsges set except for schools, which the Govemors were pleased to see increase. 10 bursaries were awarded to potential RE teachers, sadly 2 students at Winchester University did not complete the course (their bursary awards have been refunded into FY25). Overall the amount awarded fell from the previous year to £157,511 (£185.000 FY23) but with only £1.307 refunded (£6,025 FY23). Grant spend of £157,104 during this r8POrting period included an unpaid grant from the previous year (£900 FY23) and a deferred grant (£1,285 FY22) less £1,307 refunded. The Charity will no longer defer awards except in the case of the large award made to the Salisbury Diocesan Board of Education. 72 applications 9.w.ent to the Board 23 rejected success rejected

SARUM ST MICHAEL EDUCATIONALCHARITY REPORTOFTHE MANAGINGTRUSTEES FOR THEYEAR ENDED31 DECEMBER2024 FINANCIAL REVIEW The only InMe stream is derfved from th8 investment portfollo held by Rathbones Investment ManagemenL The name change Is indicative of Investec, wlth whom the funds have been invested wlth slnce 2012, having been taken over by Rathbones. The Charity does not have a fundraislng campaign as rf( does not fundraise nor seek donations or legacles. The Charity set a budget for both grant spend and operatlonal costs In Febrnary of the previous y8ar; granl spend was below budget and operational costs almost spot on. Total Investment Income for the year was £193,496 (£164.989 FY23). Investrnent management costs ft)r the reporung perlod wer8 £36,809 (£35,142 FY23). Operatlonal costs to run the Chan'ty were £33,112 (£30,116 FY23). Total expenditure was £227.025 (£244,233 PQ3). and the net expenditure for the year was £33,529 (£79,244 FY23). Inveslment galns for the year were £407,363 (£300,463 P(23), making a net movement in funds for the year a £373,834 sUlUS (£221,219 surplus FY23). Encouraging after seelng a deficit 2 years previously in 2022. At the end of the year the net assets of th8 Charity were £6,609,104 (£6,235,270 FY23). Ther& were no grants approved in this financial year to be pald out in the next year except the standing £68,000 award to Salisbury Dlocasan Board of EdUCaOn (last 2 remaining payments to be paid in 2025 and 2026). This grant covers the salary of the Schools Improvement Advisor. The Internal Controls Policy is reifjewed annually. Investmont Pollcy and Performance Ralhbones w8re Instructsd to manage the maln portfollo (Endowment Fund) to enhanc8 th8 r6al value of the capital and Income of the Fund to aim for a targat retum of CPI +3%, net of faes. A revised income target of £180,000 vras adopted. The year d81ivered another positiv8 year for equity markets. The growth of Artlficial Intell1gen cont5nu8d to result in a rather nntrated marke( whereby a handful of very large US technology fims dellvered an outsized retum. compared with the broader market. Robust US economlc growth. allied to a services o)mponent of Infiation that remaln8d stickyi meant that the expectation of multiple interest rate cuts largely dlssipated, and the market adjusted to an expectation that interest rates might stay hlgher for longer. The total retum aGhleved by the fvnd over Ihe financial year, net of fees, was +9.2%. which compares favourably with the CPI +3% target return of +5.5%. Th8 fund again benefitted from a degreg of exposure to the high-growth technology s8Ctor, bLrt this was balanced wlth income-producing assets, given the Income requir8m6nL Income of £192,000 was generated for the year. At the end of 2024, the maln portrolio was valued at £6,436,544. The asset allocation was 21 % bonds, 20% UK equitias, 470/0 overseas equities, 3% property, 8% alternative as86ts and 10/0 cash.
SARUM ST MICHAEL EDUCATIONALCHARrrY REPORT OFTHE MANAGINGTRUSTEES FOR THEYEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER2024 Rathbon88 also manages the smaller ac£umulated income p)rtfolio. The objecttve is to enhance th8 value of the capital and income of the fund wtth the avoidance of undue risk, as the fvnd will be dra down and spent when SUTtable opportunib88 arfse. At the end of 2024 the portfolio was valued at £177,079 and was Invested 37¥0 in bonds, 30¥0 in UK 8qUiti88 and 330/0 in cash. The retum for the financial year was +4.9%, against the comparator of +2.9¥o. The Inflatton-adjusted value of the endowed pItal funds whose original value was £907,698 on 24 January 1980 was £3,817,817 at th8 end of thls flnancial year. This compares wlth the market valu8 of £6.613,623 on 31 Dec8mber 2024. The Investment Policy is reviewgd annually. R16k Manag•ment Rlsk Management is considered annually by the Govemors and a comprehensive Risk Assessment in place. or significance remains the matter of investsnent retums sinc8 It is that whlch d8ternilnes whettier the Charlty can (xry out It's Objects, However, the Govemors are content that thelr decision to place the funds In the care of Rathbones Investment Management the Charity has done all it can to minimise any rfsk. R8gular reports are recelved and the Investment Manager invited to SP8ak with the Govemors annually. Likewise regular Uquidity and Spend Reports presented prior to any decisions on grant Spend is made ensures that only the funds available to spend can be awarded. Resèrvos Strategy In e8sence all that sits wilhln the Accumulated Incom8 Account Is the Charty's Reserve and as such is still eaming on th8 markets whilst accessible. Thls is deemed sufflci8nt by the Governors. A sum of 3 months of operating Gosts and Impendlng grants expenditure is consider8d as an approprlate amount to be held as a mlnimum level of resep4e. The Accurnulated Income Fund held by Rathbones always exceeded thls amount throughout thls reportlng pen'od. At th8 8nd of the year the total reserves were £184,188 (£180,539 FY23). An Immedlat8 reserve of £59.662 rf needed in the worst case scenario (3mths operating costs plus grant Spend) was always available. The Reserves Policy Is rev18wed annually. PLANS FOR THE FUTURE Much work wa8 done to ensure that the n8cessary govemanc8 was put in place durlng this reporting period. Moving forward the Govemors want to see an Increas8 In the number of applications, hoping that In tum there will be an increase in grant spend and number of beneflclarfes. In order to do thls It wlll b8 nece&8ary to launch a communlcations campalgn commenclng wth the rewrft8 of the CharfVs w6bsite. Once complete and wtth an onlln8 application process steps will be taken to broadcast the Chariws exlstence amongst schools Initlally. A new website wrll brfng addltional beneflts of a more efficient and accessible appllcatlon process, whlch th8 Staff are very much looking forward to.
