THE ST. JOHN'S SCHOOL CENTRE

Administration of the former St John's Infant School - now known as The Centre - for the public benefit and for educational and recreational purposes

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker and there are significant future grants due to be received
There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
The Board is predominantly male

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
Income has been volatile recently
