    Psychosynthesis and Education Trust

    Report of the Trustees

    For the year ended 31 August 2010

    Last year we looked at how training is carried out. We decided to alter the way we deliver the

    courses by switching, in an incremental fashion, to a staff trainer system whereby a core of trainers

    are employed to carry out the bulk of the training. This system has not yet been fully implemented.

    We are currently reviewing the new system to see how it can be made to work more effectively.

    As the state of the economy remains precarious and government cuts bite, public services will be

    taking a battering. Charities are receiving fewer donations and the general demand on all

    organisations is to look carefully at costs and expenditure, making economies where they can. For

    the second year in a row student numbers at PET have been down. Last year we did some serious

    restructuring in order to be sustainable. We are now part way through this restructuring. The

    challenge before us is how to put the organisation and training on a sound financial footing at thesame time as maintaining the good name that PET has built up over the years. In addition to this we

    want to develop the activities, courses and partnerships that PET is involved in.

    The Trustees of the Psychosynthesis & Education Trust, who are also the Directors of the charitablecompany, present their annual report and the audited statements for the year ended 31 August

    2010. The financial statements comply with current statutory requirements, the memorandum and

    articles of association and the Statement of Recommended Practice - Accounting and Reporting by

    Charities.

    A word from the Chair:

    Over the last year we undertook a major review of the curriculum and were able to rationalise it and

    iron out any duplication of course material. The revised training programme continues to meet BACP

    and UKCP requirements. During the year we were due to undertake a collaborative review with theUniversity of East London. Due to the restructuring, this was postponed to the current academic

    year and the University is very pleased with the outcome. Through such working together we aim to

    continue to improve and refine what we are offering to students and to keep our courses in line with

    up-to-date thinking and practice in the field.

    We have many challenges still ahead of us. Hopefully through the stakeholder meetings and the

    organisational audit we will continue to make the changes necessary within the organisation in order

    that we may continue to offer psychosynthesis training at its best .

    In December 2010 we started looking at our reputation as a training organisation and how we might

    improve it. This led to series of meetings where we engaged in conversation with all those with a

    stake in PET. This exercise has been very useful and is still ongoing. From it we hope to introduce

    measures that will make PET a more responsive and vital body. In recent weeks we have also

    undertaken an organisational audit to see if we are using our resources and personnel in the most

    effective way. At the present time we are awaiting the feedback report from this audit. These

    exercises are often salutary. They help us to become aware of what needs to be done in order to

    provide a better and more attractive training.

    Psychosynthesis and Education Trust

    Report of the Trustees

    For the year ended 31 August 2010

    The Organisation

    Aims and Objectives

    Our aims are:

    support people as they find their place within an intricate network of relationships and within

    society.

    The Trust is also a member of the European Association for Psychotherapy (EAP) and a founding

    member of the European Federation for Psychosynthesis Psychotherapy (EFPP). All Trust staff

    subscribe to Codes of Practice and Ethics of these bodies. A team of qualified psychosynthesis

    practitioners teach and supervise students. The team members are drawn from various backgrounds

    and disciplines, including psychology, education, philosophy, religious practice, psychiatry,

    organisational work and management. The Trusts programmes are validated by the University of

    East London (School of Psychology).

    provide psychosynthesis educational techniques suitable for schools and adult education.

    The Trust operates its own Counselling Referral Service which is particularly suitable for clients who

    might be less confident about contacting a therapist directly. The Counselling Service Manager

    assesses and places clients with the counsellor who best fits their needs and diagnosis. Thisservice also includes low cost counselling for those on low incomes.

    The Trust is a training and accrediting member of the Humanistic and Integrative Psychology

    Section of the United Kingdom Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP), and was one of the first

    counselling training organisations to be accredited by the British Association for Counselling (and

    Psychotherapy).

    The Psychosynthesis and Education Trust is the longest established psychosynthesis centre in

    Britain. It was founded in 1965 by 'the father of psychosynthesis', Roberto Assagioli, together with

    Sir George Trevelyan, Dr Martin Israel and Geoffrey Leytham.

    The modern training programmes were developed from 1982 onwards by Diana Whitmore and

    others, who studied under Assagioli, and who now continues her connection with the Trust as a

    Trustee.

    The Trust's main purpose is to gain recognition for the central role of soul and Self in psychology

    and to renew the soul in the everyday life of individuals, the family, groups, organisations and

    society.

    Our vocation is to address the needs of the students and clients in a way that is pragmatic as well

    as spiritual and relevant to everyday life. We acknowledge both pain and potential in the human

    experience.

    work with people in life crisis.

    promote the practice of transpersonal counselling and psychotherapy by providing a training

    centre of excellence.

    promote the value of psycho-spiritual work in counselling, psychotherapy and education

    through research, dissemination and publication.

    Psychosynthesis and Education Trust

    Report of the Trustees

    For the year ended 31 August 2010

    This is primarily achieved by:

    Graduate Certificate in Psychosynthesis Foundations

    Post Graduate Diploma in Psychosynthesis Counselling, years 1 and 2

    MA in Psychosynthesis Psychotherapy

    Post Graduate Certificate in Psychosynthesis Studies

    Post Graduate Certificate in Transpersonal and Integrative Supervision

    The Psychosynthesis and Education Trust is a registered charity and charitable company limited byguarantee. It is governed by its memorandum and articles of association of 10 September 1999.

    Day to day management is delegated to and carried out jointly by the Director of Programmes and

    the Director of Operations and Development, in close consultation with the Trustees, at the full

    quarterly meetings, and at meetings of Trustee subcommittees.

    No Trustees have any beneficial interest in the charity.

    Trustees are selected from interested applicants by a panel of existing Trustees, who consider the

    needs of the Trust, in terms of the skills individual new Trustees bring to the board, the spread of

    skills, and the social diversity of the board.

    New Trustees have an induction process, and where they are not already familiar with the

    background and principles of psychosynthesis they attend a short training course. Existing Trustees

    review available opportunities for networking and training. In the last year members of the boardattended the Annual Charity Conference.

    Where appropriate Trustees are invited to attend other seminars and conferences related to charity

    organisation and management.

    Offering a counselling referral service, including a low-cost counselling service, for the general

    public; and

    Running the following courses which are validated by the University of East London and

    accredited by BACP or UKCP:

    Offering introductory courses in Psychosynthesis Psychosynthesis to the public (such as the

    popular Essentials course) and on-going professional training for graduates and other qualified

    therapists;

    Offering a free or a subsidised rate for the use of rooms at 92-94 Tooley Street for organisations

    furthering Psychosynthesis.

    Report of the Trustees

    For the year ended 31 August 2010

    Review of activities 2009/10

    Counselling & Psychotherapy Training

    Future developments

    Developing fresh workshops aimed at those working in business

    Developing Partnership working further and re-engaging with existing partners

    Delivering new courses

    Revising, refreshing and developing our curriculum.

    Public Benefit

    We have had a wide range of events in this programme aimed at graduates and others interested in

    professional development. The programme involved an event at least once a month.

    In addition the Trust continues to have two intakes of the 2 year Post Graduate Diplomas and a

    number of Students were awarded these in the year.

    Essentials Out of LondonWe have continued the successful Essentials course run outside London at Findhorn College in

    Scotland. This continues to be well supported.

    Counselling ServiceThe counselling service continued to deliver psychosynthesis counselling to the general public,

    some of it low cost. The overall number of clients decreased a little but continued to include low

    cost clients.

    The Trusts professional counselling & psychotherapy training student numbers decreased in the

    year. However new students joined the introductory Essentials course which ran several times this

    year. It continues to be well attended and we intend to increase numbers. We also offer a

    Foundation course.

    Graduate Studies Programme

    We intend to increase the availability of low cost counselling, bursaries and internships as and when

    we can afford to do so. We are keen to expand our responsiveness to social need by adapting and

    creating new short courses for the public alongside the training. We are also looking to increase the

    diversity of our student body so that it is more representative of the population at large.

    The Trustees have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance

    on public benefit when reviewing the charity's aims and objectives and in planning its future

    activities.

    As befits our charitable status we are looking at ways in which we can be of greater service to the

    community. This is done in the context of, and with regard to, the Charity Commissions guidance on

    public benefit.

    Report of the Trustees

    For the year ended 31 August 2010

    Income generation and fundraising

    Financial Position

    Reserves Policy

    Risk

    The financial results for the year ended 31 August showed a loss of 103k. The effect of the loss

    was to reduce the balance carried forward to 226k. The main cause of the loss was reduced

    income from student intake due primarily to uncertainty caused by the economic climate. To

    increase working capital, 133k was released from the Trust's freehold property by way of

    remortgage that was finalised in October 2010.

    The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees report and the financial statements inaccordance with applicable law and regulations.

    They maintain a risk register, and this is reviewed regularly to ensure that all risks have been

    properly identified and amelioration plans are in place where appropriate.

    The Trustees have examined, in conjunction with the senior management team, the significant risks

    that might affect the continued operation of the charity.

    Responsibilities of the Trustees

    The main role of reserves is to permit the charity to manage change effectively, particularly where

    the regulatory and educational frameworks within which the Trust operates undergoes change.

    Currently the reserves policy is to retain six months operating costs, covering key staff and

    overheads, amounting to some 165k. This level has not yet been achieved and the level of freereserves at the year end stood at (403,000).

    The Trustees have reviewed their reserves policy and aim to commit as much as possible to

    furthering the charitys objectives, while retaining financial stability and the potential to respond to

    new opportunities.

    Some income is generated by book sales and publishing; a small amount of capitation funding is

    received from the University of East London; but most of the Trusts income is generated by tuition

    fees and letting the building. The Trust has not invested resources in fundraising during the

    financial year.

    Company law requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under

    that law the Trustees have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United

    Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and

    applicable law). Under company law the Trustees must not approve the financial statements unless

    they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company

    and the incoming resources and application of resources, including the net income or expenditure,

    of the charitable company for that period.

    Independent Auditors' Report

    To the members of

    Psychosynthesis and Education Trust

    We have audited the financial statements of Psychosynthesis and Education Trust for the year ended31 August 2010 which comprise the statement of financial activities, balance sheet and related notes.

    These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out

    therein.

    This report is made solely to the charitable company's members, as a body, in accordance with

    section Chapter 3 Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that

    we might state to the charitable company's members those matters we are required to state to them

    in an auditors' report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not

    accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charitable company and the charitable

    company's members, as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have

    formed.

    Respective responsibilities of the Trustees and auditorsThe responsibilities of the Trustees (who are also the directors of Psychosynthesis and Education

    Trust for the purposes of company law) for preparing the annual report and the financial statements

    in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom

    Generally Accepted Accounting Practice), are set out in the statement of responsibilities of the

    Trustees.

    Our responsibility is to audit the financial statements in accordance with relevant legal and regulatory

    requirements and International Standards on Auditing (UK and Ireland).

    We report to you our opinion as to whether the financial statements have been properly prepared in

    accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice, have been prepared inaccordance with the Companies Act 2006 and give a true and fair view. We also report to you

    whether in our opinion the information given in the annual report of the Trustees is consistent with

    those financial statements.

    In addition we report to you if, in our opinion, the charitible company has not kept adequate

    accounting records, if the charitable company's financial statements are not in agreement with the

    accounting records and returns, if we have not received all the information and explanations we

    require for our audit, or if certain disclosures of Trustees' remuneration specified by law are not

    made.

    We read the annual report of the Trustees and consider the implications for our report if we become

    aware of any apparent misstatements within it.

    Basis of opinion

    We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK and Ireland)

    issued by the Auditing Practices Board.An audit includes examination, on a test basis, of evidence

    relevant to the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. It also includes an assessment

    of the significant estimates and judgements made by the Trustees in the preparation of the financial

    statements, and of whether the accounting policies are appropriate to the charity's circumstances,

    consistently applied and adequately disclosed.

    Senior Statutory Auditor

    for and on behalf of Sayer Vincent, Statutory Auditors

    In our opinion:

    the financial statements give a true and fair view of the state of the charity's affairs as at 31

    August 2010 and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income

    and expenditure, for the year then ended;

    We planned and performed our audit so as to obtain all the information and explanations which weconsidered necessary in order to provide us with sufficient evidence to give reasonable assurance

    that the financial statements are free from material misstatement, whether caused by fraud or other

    irregularity or error. In forming our opinion we also evaluated the overall adequacy of the presentation

    of information in the financial statements.

    27 May 2011

    the financial statements have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom

    Generally Accepted Accounting Practice;

    the financial statements have been properly prepared in accordance with the Companies Act

    2006; and

    the information given in the annual report of the Trustees is consistent with the financial

    statements.

    In forming our opinion on the financial statements, we have considered the adequacy of thedisclosure made in note 1 to the financial statements concerning the charitable companys ability to

    continue as a going concern. The charitable company has restructured in order to reduce costs. Its

    viability will rely primarily on maintaining student numbers and the bank's renewal of the overdraft

    facility. In view of the significance of the uncertainty we consider it should be drawn to your attention,

    but our opinion is not qualified in this respect.

    1. Accounting policies (continued)

    Staff, trainers' fees and costs

    Bursaries

    Counselling service

    All other costs are apportioned on an appropriate basis, based on activity.

    All costs are allocated between the expenditure categories of the statement of financial activities

    on a basis designed to reflect the use of the resource.

    Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities
