Notes to the Financial Statements

for the Period Ended 31 August 2025

  • 1. Accounting policies

    Basis of measurement and preparation

    These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the provisions of Section 1A (Small Entities) of Financial Reporting Standard 102

    Turnover policy

    Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for goods supplied, net of discounts and Value Added Tax. Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership have transferred to the buyer, usually on despatch of the goods; the amount of revenue can be measured reliably; it is probable that the associated economic benefits will flow to the entity; and the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transactions can be measured reliably.

    Tangible fixed assets depreciation policy

    Tangible assets are initially measured at cost, and are subsequently measured at cost less any accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses or at a revalued amount. Any tangible assets carried at a revalued amount are recorded at the fair value at the date of revaluation less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses. An increase in the carrying amount of an asset as a result of a revaluation is recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in capital and reserves. However, the increase is recognised in profit or loss to the extent that it reverses a revaluation decrease of the same asset previously recognised in profit or loss. A decrease in the carrying amount of an asset as a result of revaluation is recognised in other comprehensive income to the extent of any previously recognised revaluation increase accumulated in capital and reserves. If a revaluation decrease exceeds the accumulated revaluation gains accumulated in capital and reserves in respect of that asset, the excess is recognised in profit or loss. Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost of an asset, less its estimated residual value, over the useful economic life of that asset as follows: -Plant and machinery: 20% straight line -Land and buildings: Straight line over 50 years IMPAIRMENT A review for indicators of impairment is carried out at each reporting date, with the recoverable amount being estimated where such indicators exist. Where the carrying value exceeds the recoverable amount, the asset is impaired accordingly. Prior impairments are also reviewed for possible reversal at each reporting date.

    Valuation information and policy

    The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, as modified by the revaluation of certain assets. The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the company.

    Other accounting policies

    CURRENT TAX Current tax is recognised on taxable profit for the current and past periods. Current tax is measured at the amounts of tax expected to pay or recover using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date. DEFERRED TAX Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the reporting date. Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is more likely than not that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits. Deferred tax is measured on an undiscounted basis at the tax rates that would apply in the periods in which timing differences are expected to reverse, based on tax rates and laws enacted at the statement of financial position date. LIMITED BY GUARANTEE The company is limited by guarantee and has no share capital. Every member of the company undertakes to contribute to the assets of the company, in the event of a winding up, such an amount as may be required not exceeding £1.

Company activities and impact

Raw Learning Community CIC provides neurodivergent affirming, nature based education and support for children, young people and families who struggle to thrive in mainstream settings. During this financial year we delivered regular outdoor learning sessions, small group programmes, and individual support for neurodivergent children and young people, including those with autism, ADHD, PDA profiles and high levels of anxiety. Our sessions took place in woodland in Rochford, Essex, offering an alternative, low pressure educational space focused on play, relationship, sensory needs and emotional regulation rather than formal academic outcomes. Across the year we supported approximately 120 children and young people and 240 families through weekly programmes, holiday club sessions and events. Many participants were out of school, at risk of exclusion or on reduced timetables; our provision helped them maintain routines, build peer relationships and re engage with learning in a way that felt safe and manageable. Families reported reduced stress at home, improved confidence in understanding and supporting their child’s needs, and increased connection with other parents facing similar challenges. We also provided training, consultation and outreach to local preschools, professionals and community organisations to improve understanding of neurodivergence and trauma informed, outdoor practice. This included delivering training sessions on topics such as demand avoidant profiles, sensory processing and inclusive outdoor learning, and offering advice to professionals supporting children who attend our programmes. By sharing our specialist knowledge and modelling flexible, relationship first practice, we have contributed to more inclusive approaches across the local education and care system. Overall, our activities this year have benefited the community by offering a lifeline to families whose children do not fit traditional educational environments, reducing isolation for both children and parents, and building a local network of practitioners who understand and value neurodivergent ways of being. Our work has improved wellbeing, social connection and access to meaningful learning for a group who are often marginalised and under served in mainstream provision.

Consultation with stakeholders

Who Raw Learning’s stakeholders are Our main stakeholders are the children and young people who attend Raw Learning and their parents and carers. We also recognise referring schools and local authority teams, our staff and volunteers, and partner organisations (such as local community groups and professionals who share our site or refer families) as key stakeholders. How you consult stakeholders? During the year we consulted stakeholders in several ways, appropriate to their needs and communication styles. This included: - Ongoing informal feedback in sessions from children and young people, using observation, check ins and child led planning to adapt activities. - Regular conversations, emails and review meetings with parents and carers to discuss what is working, any concerns, and ideas for change. - Feedback from schools and referrers through referral reviews, SEND meetings and follow up calls. - Staff and volunteer debriefs and supervision where practice issues and stakeholder feedback are shared and discussed. - Occasional online surveys / feedback forms for families and professionals, where appropriate, to gather more structured comments. - Grant feedback to funders is reported as requested. How you acted on feedback? In response to stakeholder feedback this year, the company has continued to: - Adjusted session structure and pacing to allow more flexibility for highly anxious and demand avoidant children (e.g. more choice based activities and quieter spaces). - Offered communication with families, including clearer information before children start and more regular updates during the term. - Adapted our booking and referral processes to be simpler for parents and schools and to better capture key sensory and regulatory needs. - Offered a new story telling website that addresses easy accessibility for families and professionals. - Offered additional guidance and signposting for families to local services where needs fall outside our provision. - Updated risk assessments and policies to reflect parent and staff feedback about safety, inclusion and accessibility on site.
