GLASGOW CLYDE EDUCATION FOUNDATION REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 18 MARCH 2025
The trustees have pleasure in presenting the report and financial statements (cessation accounts) of the Glasgow Clyde Education Foundation for the period ended 18 March 2025.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the charity’s Constitution, the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 (as amended by the Charities (Regulation and Administration) (Scotland) Act 2023 ), the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 and Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their financial statements in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland.
1. Introduction
This report marks the conclusion of the activities of the Glasgow Clyde Education Foundation (the Foundation ), registered charity number SC044616, following the decision of the Trustees to wind up the charity on 6 December 2024. This report covers the period from 1 April 2024 to the date of cessation and outlines the Charity’s activities, financial performance and reason for dissolution.
2. Objectives and activities
2.1. Objectives
The purposes of the Foundation are to enhance the learning experience for students, potential students and the communities served by Glasgow Clyde College (the College ).
For the purposes of the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005, section 7, the Foundation exists to advance education, together with citizenship and community development (particularly in respect of working with and supporting the said community) in their work to encourage learning and access to further education.
The Foundation prioritised projects that create equal access to learning opportunities, take new but sustainable approaches and which represent leading and transformative educational practice within the College and wider learning sector.
The trustees are committed to ensuring that the funding granted supports the College to invest in sustainable learning, teaching and assessment delivery through blended learning, both on campus and online.

GLASGOW CLYDE EDUCATION FOUNDATION REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 18 MARCH 2025
2.2 Activities: grant funding completion and dissolution
Between June and August 2024, the Trustees of the Foundation discussed whether the charity should be wound up, having fulfilled the Foundation’s main charitable objective to support and promote the teaching and learning experience of Glasgow Clyde College students, staff, and communities, throughout the Foundation’s ten years of operations.
Trustees considered the mechanics and timelines of winding up against existing funding commitments and the College’s drawdown schedule, discussing what would happen to committed funds after winding up and the possibility of setting up a restricted fund for the College to draw from. Trustees considered whether to wind up at that stage, as Trustees wished to retain a level of control and the ability to earn and retain interest on GCEF’s funds for as long as possible, which was not compatible with the setting up of a restricted fund.
After the College clarified its intention and timings for various projects drawdowns, Trustees resolved to wind up the charity at the AGM on 27 August 2024, having concluded that the Foundation’s main charitable purpose, i.e., to promote, advance through grant giving the learning experience for students, potential students and the communities (including by supporting (financially and otherwise) community and not for profit groups and organisations operating within the communities) served by Glasgow Clyde College, has been fulfilled.
Accordingly, the Foundation’s grant-giving strategy has been geared towards distributing committed grants to the College in advance of the Foundation’s dissolution planned for March 2025.
In the period covered by this report, four projects which the Foundation committed funds to in the previous financial years were still live: (1) DELTA (Delivering Excellence in Learning, Teaching & Assessment); (2) Supporting Commercial Income Growth ; (3) Student Learning Spaces ; and (4) Financial Sustainability Bid (Phase 2) .
Among these four, the most impactful project has been DELTA , which focussed on upskilling the College’s digital teaching service provision. The project introduced new learning technologies and supported core teaching and non-teaching staff to develop digital skills and assets. By integrating tools like CANVAS (an online learning platform) and TeacherMatic (an AI software for the creation of digital assets such as teaching plans, presentations, and online learning schedules), the College succeeded in improving the digital learning experience of students and helped in levelling the digital poverty gap, which the pandemic revealed and exacerbated throughout. The early adoption of digital and AI learning tools following the pandemic outbreak established the College as a leading pioneer in the use of virtual learning platforms for teaching, and evidenced the College’s strategic commitment to the digital teaching space.

GLASGOW CLYDE EDUCATION FOUNDATION REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 18 MARCH 2025
2.2 Activities: grant funding completion and dissolution (continued)
The Supporting Commercial Income Growth project represented a multi-year investment, the nature of which changed over time, as a result of the pandemic and evolving business expectations, growth trajectories, and needs. The unpredictable economic disruption and downturn which the pandemic created, coupled with tangible cuts in government funding and a dramatic decrease in demand for long-term courses affected the success of this project, but the net return on commercial activity for the College has improved as a result of implementing aspects of the project.
The Financial Sustainability Bid (Phase 2) , a project designed to re-allocate funds from other projects in support of the College’s financial health and viability (including core staff costs), had its last drawdown in December 2024.
Lastly, the Student Learning Spaces , a project yet to be delivered due to two major capital issues which disrupted managerial capacity over 2022/23 and 2023/24, has benefitted from the re-allocation of a sum of £253,022.05 which was awarded from surplus funds at the time of dissolution. This ensured that the funds which were redistributed to the Financial Sustainability Bid (Phase 2) project were successfully recovered upon the Foundation’s wind up.
Overall, from its origins in 2014 to its dissolution in early 2025, the Foundation grew the funds available by 31% over the 10 years of operation and maximised funding available to the College, from its initial donation of £15.0m to a total £19.7m of funds awarded over the 10 years (net of all costs of maintaining the Foundation). When accounting for the costs of operating the Foundation (approx. £0.7m), the initial £15.0m donation generated a gross total of ~£20.4m funds available to spend , thanks to the Foundation’s investment policy (skilfully managed by the investment managers at Brewin Dolphin). The Foundation’s trustees consider such a result a success, given the heightened markets’ volatility over the past few years, weighed against the trustees’ ability (as guided by the investment managers) to mitigate.
A total of 93 projects, divided between capital grants, revenue grants, and community partnership awards, have been funded by the Foundation since 2014, which included major capital works across the College estates, comprising of the Cardonald, Anniesland, and Langside Campuses.
A legacy report outlining the journey and impact of the Foundation and its grant making programmes has been published on the College’s website and can be read here: https://www.glasgowclyde.ac.uk/about-us/glasgow-clyde-education-foundation

3. Financial review
As outlined throughout this report, the Foundation’s grant making work has relied on the original donations made to it in 2015 and 2016 by the College (amounting to £15 million), together with the income and investment returns from its investment portfolio and cash management.
Since 1 April 2024, the last drawdowns for the Financial Sustainability Bid (Phase 2) and Student Learning Spaces projects of £1.5m and 0.7m, respectively, were transferred to the College in December 2024. Trustees resolved to transfer all surplus funds to Glasgow Clyde College and to re-invest remaining cash balance into an easy access account through the CAF Bank Gold account, to maximise interest earned up to the point of dissolution.
All surplus funds were transferred to Glasgow Clyde College in February 2025 in support of the Student Learning Spaces, as agreed upon the Foundation’s dissolution. The final payment to the College was £253,022.05
4. Structure, governance and management
The Foundation has been operating with a reduced governance structure since August 2022 when it was clear that the Foundation was beginning to wind down. Seven trustees were kept to oversee the grant making activities of the Foundation. Trustees resolved to disband the Audit & Risk Committee and replace this line of reporting by emails to a Cash Review Committee (comprising the Chair and two trustees) to monitor the cash balance and performance. The trustees also resolved to reduce the standard number of full trustee meetings to twice annually, but with discretion to call additional online meetings to discuss specific areas of business if required.
Trustees had two board meetings in the period covered by this report and dealt with additional decisions through email, formally noting the decisions at the following board meeting, and a written resolution passed unanimously by the trustees with regards to the decision to wind up the charity. Attendance at board meetings was resumed in person and hybrid, as to best suit the commitments of the trustees and as permitted by the charity constitution.
Banking continued to be monitored by the Cash Review Committee with two trustees approving payments from the bank account.
The WS Society remains responsible for the secretariat and administrative management of the day-to-day charity administration. , the Foundation’s Coordinator since February 2024, has overseen the Foundation’s administration through to its dissolution.

GLASGOW CLYDE EDUCATION FOUNDATION REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 18 MARCH 2025
4.1. Trustees
The management of the charity is the responsibility of the trustees who are appointed under the terms of the Constitution. A minimum of four and a maximum of nine trustees may be appointed: two ‘College trustees’ may be appointed by Glasgow Clyde College and up to seven ‘Independent trustees’ appointed by the Board. Trustees are appointed for a term of 3 years, following a recruitment process which includes open advertisement in relevant publications/forum, shortlisting candidates for interview by a panel of trustees which recommends appointments to the full Board. Trustees may be reappointed for a further three years following their first term of office. Trustees are not remunerated in any way for their role, except in claiming essential travel expenses to attend the Board of trustees. It was resolved not to recruit further new trustees to the Foundation given the anticipated timescale for final wind up in December 2024 and in the best interests of continuity of current business. As the charity was beginning to wind up, no new trustees were appointed in the period.
5. Wind up and asset distribution
The organisation is a Scottish Charitable Incorporated Organisation (SCIO) incorporated on 29 January 2014. The SCIO’s objects are to advance education and in particular, to enhance the learning experience for students, potential students and the communities served by Glasgow Clyde College (a registered Scottish charity SCO21182).The organisation achieved this by supporting (a) the delivery of improved teaching accommodation, facilities and infrastructure and/or equipment; (b) the development of teaching and curriculum resources and opportunities; and (c) staff development for the staff of the Glasgow Clyde College to assist and develop the student learning experience.
Having committed all funds to Glasgow Clyde College (Scottish Charity No. SC021182) and thus achieving the Foundation’s objectives, the Trustees unanimously resolved to dissolve the SCIO at the charity’s AGM in August 2024. The required written resolution was passed on 6 December 2024, and it was agreed to transfer the Foundation’s remaining assets after the discharge of all liabilities to Glasgow Clyde College. The Foundation chose to transfer all its remaining assets to the College to honour the special fiduciary relationship which the two organisations have developed over the 10 years of the Foundation’s operations, whereby the College has been the main grant beneficiary of the Foundation since the Foundation was established. This reflects the Foundation’s main charitable objective to promote the success and sustainability of the teaching and learning experience of the communities served by Glasgow Clyde College.
A notice of Application for Dissolution of solvent SCIO and a Declaration of Solvency were also passed on 6 December 2024 and issued to OSCR thereafter. Consent to dissolve the solvent SCIO was granted by OSCR in letter dated 22 January 2025 and dissolution conditions formally were accepted by the Trustees by letter dated 10 February 2025.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 18 MARCH 2025 1. Accounting Policies
(a) Basis of preparation and assessment of going concern
The accounts (financial statements) have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant note(s) to these accounts.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006.
The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102.
The entity ceased operations on 18[th] March 2025. As a result, Glasgow Clyde Education Foundation is no longer considered to be a going concern and the trustees have therefore not prepared the financial statements on this basis.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, the functional currency of the charity. Monetary amounts in these statements are rounded to the nearest £.
(b) Fund’s structure
-
Unrestricted income funds are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity.
-
Designated funds are unrestricted funds earmarked by the Trustees for particular purposes.
-
Restricted funds are subjected to restrictions on their expenditure imposed by the donor or through the terms of an appeal.
Further details of each fund are disclosed in note 12.
(c) Income recognition
-
All incoming resources are included in the Statement of Financial Activities when the charity is entitled to the income and the amount can be qualified with reasonable accuracy. The following specific policies are applied to particular categories of income:
-
Voluntary income is received by way of grants, donations and gifts and included in full in the Statement of Financial Activities when reasonable. Grants, where entitlement is not conditional on the delivery of a specific performance by the charity, are recognised when the charity becomes unconditionally entitled to the grant.
-
Donated services and facilities are included at the value to the charity where this can be quantified. The value of the services provided by volunteers has not been included in these accounts.

GLASGOW CLYDE EDUCATION FOUNDATION
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 18 MARCH 2025
1. Accounting Policies (continued)
- Investment income is included when receivable.
Income is only deferred when:
-
The donor specifies that the grant or donation must only be used in future accounting periods; or
-
The donor has imposed conditions which must be met before the charity has unconditional entitlement.
(d) Expenditure recognition
Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.
All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis. All expenses including support costs and governance costs are allocated or apportioned to the applicable expenditure headings. For more information on this attribution refer to note (e) below.
-
Costs of raising funds comprise the costs of managing the charity’s investments;
-
Expenditure on charitable activities includes grants payable and other activities undertaken to further the purposes of the charity and their associated support costs;
(e) Allocation of governance costs
Governance costs comprise all costs involving the public accountability of the charity and its compliance with regulation and good practice. These costs include costs related to the independent examination and legal fees.
Governance costs are support costs relating to charitable activities. The allocation of governance costs is analysed in note 6.
(f) Debtors
Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid.
(g) Cash at bank and in hand
Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.

1. Accounting Policies (continued)
(h) Creditors and provisions
Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.
(i) Pensions
Employees of the charity are entitled to join a defined contribution ‘money purchase’ scheme. The charity contribution is restricted to the contributions disclosed in note 8. There were no outstanding contributions at the period end. The costs of the defined contribution scheme are included within support and governance costs and charged to the unrestricted funds of the charity.
(j) Taxation
The Foundation is a charity within the meaning of Section 467 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010. Accordingly, the Foundation is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by Chapter 3 part II of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992 to the extent that such income or gains are applied to charitable purposes only.
(k) Financial instruments
The Foundation only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value.
(l) Employee Benefits
The costs of short-term employee benefits are recognised as a liability and an expense, unless those costs are required to be recognised as part of the cost of stock or fixed assets.
The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received.
Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the charity is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.
2. Legal status of the Trust
The Foundation is a registered Scottish Charitable Incorporated Organisation.
