THE ARMLEY DEANERY SCHOOLS CHARITY
2020 REPORT AND ACCOUNTS
Independent Examiner’s Report
Report to the Trustees of Armley Deanery Schools Charity (Charity No. 1014754 on the accounts of the church for the year ended 31 December 2019 which are set out on page 3.
Respective responsibilities of the Trustees and the Examiner
The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
-
examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act,
-
to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act), and
-
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of this report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair’ view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent Examiner’s statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
-
which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements
-
to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; and
-
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Charities Act have not been met; or
-
to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

Trustee’s Report
The trustee of the Armley Deanery Schools Charity presents its annual report and the independently examined financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2019. The Leeds Diocesan Board of Finance (the Board) became the trustee of the charity on 20 April 2014 replacing The Ripon & Leeds Diocesan Board of Finance.

The objects of the charity are to provide items, services, facilities and special benefits not normally provided from some other source for the pupils of Hunslet Church of England School and any Church of England voluntary aided or grant maintained school in the Anglican deanery of Armley. In planning our activities for the year we kept in mind the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit at our trustee meetings.
During the year the Charity has continued to fulfil its objectives making grants to Hunslet Aided Primary School and Beeston Hill St Luke Aided Primary School.
