MITCHELL CITY OF LONDON EDUCATIONAL FOUNDATION 

To offer bursaries at 6th form level for those students who attend a 'City' school or whose parents have lived or worked within the City of London for a minimum of 5 years. To offer grants to students (age 11-16) of single parent families, also with the 'City' qualification. The 'City' is the 'square mile' almost all postcodes EC3, EC4 and a small area of EC1, EC2 - not Greater London.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • Spending has increased over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • There are 19 trustees whereas the Charities Commission recommends a maximum of 12

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 and was significantly lower than spending in the latest year
