QUAKER INTERNATIONAL EDUCATIONAL TRUST (QUIET)

QuIET primarily supports the provision of education for young people in accordance with the Quaker principles by its management of Brummana High School in Lebanon.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age and gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Why are there 14 trustees whereas the Charities Commission recommends a maximum of 12?
  • Over half the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

  • The latest accounts were qualified
  • Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
