Independent Examiner’s Report of South Farnham School PFA
I report on the accounts of the School Fund for the academic year 2022-23.
Responsibilities of the examiner
It is my responsibility to:
-
Examine the accounts
-
State whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiner’s report
My examination included a review of the accounting records kept by the South Farnham School PFA Fund and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also included consideration of any disclosures in the accounts and explanations from the school concerning such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts.
Independent examiner’s statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
