JSENSE 

We aim to help develop the skills of all staff in Jewish Schools and nurseries by providing specially adapted training & consultancy services to suit Jewish cultural and religious requirements of pupils with special educational needs & disabilities (SEND). We also provide support services, educational meetings and social networks for children and young people with SEND and their parents and carers
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There has been strong growth in spending over the last 5 years
  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • One or more trustees receive payments or benefits from the charity for providing services to the charity
  • There are only 4 trustees
  • The Board is completely 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
  • On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
Established: 11 years
