THE SUNNINGWELL SCHOOL OF ART

Sunningwell School of Art is a unique centre for the tuition of art to students of all ages and abilities in many types of media, such as drawing, painting, printing, mixed media, ceramics and sculpture. Classes are tutored by professional art tutors.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker
There has been strong growth in spending since inception
The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy

Financial issues to consider:

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

We plan to employ a marketing consultancy to develop a brand identity, build an integrated on-line booking system that connects to our new student database, and allow us to take payments on-line. This, along with a redevelopment of our website will boost our online presence, streamline our customer experience and keep us healthy in terms of competition in the market. We recognise that this is something we desperately need as we grow our timetable to cater for students on our waiting lists.
