TUDOR HALL SCHOOL

The provision of education to girls aged 3-18 and boys aged 3-11 in an environment which encourages the Christian faith and values.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker recently
  • Fundraising costs are unusually low relative to funds raised
  • 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 15 trustees whereas the Charities Commission recommends a maximum of 12?

Financial issues to consider:

  • Liquidity appears to have been slender at the latest year end but unrestricted reserves are available
  • On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
