WOODARD SCHOOLS (NOTTINGHAMSHIRE) LIMITED 

We are part of The Woodard Corporation (charity No 1096270) and we strive for the best all round education of every aspect of each individual. We are a Christian foundation and adhere to the Catholic foundation as found in the church and support the care of each individual and the whole school community particularised in the ministry of the school chaplains.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker
  • Reserves management has been consistently within official guidelines
  • Fundraising costs are unusually low relative to funds raised
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of age

Financial issues to consider:

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