CIVITAS LIMITEDTHE INSTITUTE FOR THE STUDY OF CIVIL SOCIETY REPORT OF THE TRUSTEESYear ended 31 December 2009

Revlew of the Year's Achievem ents and PerformanceAims and ProgrammesIn order to fulfil its objective of benefiting the public Civitas aims to:. Discover solutions to social problems. Implement pioneering projects to demonstrate what can be accomplished. Supply schools with teaching materials and guest speakers. Support informed public debate and encourage consensus by:

Providing accurate factual information on today's social issuesPublishing informed comment and analysisBringing together Ieading protagonists in open disctlssion.Our work falls into two main groups: the services we provide for the public, and our research and educationalprogrammes. W e provide two main services. First, we offer primary education for children failed by the schoolsystem and unable to afford the most costly private alternatives' and second. we provide teaching materialsand speakers for schools. Our research and educational work is designed to facilitate informed public debateon impodant issues of the day by producing objective and balanced publications and arranging seminars andconferences to stimulate mutual Iearning through open discussion.Pfimary Education For Chlldren Failed By Their Local SchoolSupplem entary SchoolsMany primary schools in inner city areas fail to teach the basics. On Saturdays and after school hours duringweekdays we provide lessons in English and maths for children who have fallen behind. W e use a no-frillsapproach which concentrates on hiyh quality teaching along traditional lines to enable children to masteressential skills quickly. W e emphaslse small class sizes, reading through synthetic phonics, and mentalarithmetic.There are now seventeen supplementafy schools: ten in London, and the others in Yorkshire, the Nodh East,Birmingham and Great Yarmouth. They provide for over 400 children a week. The children also benefit from atwo-week summer school and half-term classes. W e are actively increasing the number of supplementaryschools by enlsting hard-to-reach children, including the children of mmigrants, one of the groups mostaffected by poor quality schools.London Boxing AcademyChildren who have been excluded from school are often completely failed by the system. As part of a jointproject with the London Boxing Academy Community Project, we teach English, maths and other GCSEsubjects to teenagers who have been excluded from school. The project tries to reach excluded teenagers,who have often been in trouble with the police, by offefing boxing and fitness training.Civitas facilitated and suppoded the settlng up of the New Model School Company (NMS), a non-profltcompany, independent of Civitas, which aims to m ake excellent traditional education available at a moreaffordable cost. Through the NMS we helped to establish a primary school in London, Maple W alk School,with the aim of keeping the fees as 1ow as economically possible. Although the starting of the NMS was initiallyfacilitated by Civitas, it has never been a subsidiary. lt is an ndependent not-for-profit com pany funded byindependent shareholders and certain private trusts. Civitas now focuses on helping children from lessadvantaged backgrounds to have access to NMS schools.Due to the generosity of one of our donors, we also run a dyslexia bursal scheme for children with specialIearning difficulties.
