ST PAUL'S STEINER SCHOOL BUILDING

TRUSTEES REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2021

The Trustees present their report and financial statements for the year ended 31 August 2021.

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the financial statements and comply with the 's [governing document], the Companies Act 2006 and "Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019)".

Objectives and activities

Objectives and aims

The object for which the charity is established is to renovate and adapt the de-consecrated and derelict St. Paul’s Church, a Grade 2* listed building, to provide educational facilities which are occupied by the St. Paul’s Steiner School.

Activities

The charity was granted a 125-year lease at a peppercorn rent over the de-consecrated and derelict St Paul’s Church, Islington, a Grade 2* listed building. The church has been renovated and adapted to provide educational facilities, which are occupied by the St Paul’s Steiner School, which is operated by the associated charity, St Paul’s Steiner School.

Public benefit

In setting the charity’s objectives and planning its activities, the trustees have considered the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit. St. Paul’s Steiner School is committed to ensuring that all activities are free from any discrimination on the grounds of age, sex, race, disability, religion or belief, gender reassignment, pregnancy or maternity, marriage or civil partnership, or sexual orientation. We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.

Achievements and performance

Further progress was made during the year towards our goal of restoring the building as well as supporting the educational work of the school.

Lightning Protection

Due to difficulties of carrying out an inspection of the existing lightning conductor on the tower, a report was commissioned (Autumn 2020) from Max Fordham's, a well-known Building Services and Engineering consultant firm, to review the lightning protection arrangements of the building. Subsequently, the existing lightning conductor was inspected and tested and repairs were carried out, including the reinstatement of an inspection pit at ground level. The Review Report suggested a long-term proposal for the lightning protection of the building, which has design implications for the Grade 2* Listed Building, but for which further consideration needs to be given.

TRUSTEES REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2021

North Aisle Roof works

The existing temporary parapet gutter of the North Aisle Roof had been leaking badly for some time, causing serious damp problems to classrooms below – and the gutter was beyond further repair. Thus, major building work was carried out to the North Aisle roof to repair and restore it. The North Aisle roof is now a completed part of the building fabric, and is up to the standard expected of a Grade 2* Listed Building, as well as being weather and watertight.

The work was specified and overseen by the architect Anthony Richardson of ARP Architects; and was carried out by E.J. Roberts Roofing Contractors Ltd, in the Easter and Summer Holiday periods of 2021. Listed Building Consent was obtained from Islington planning department for this restoration work.

The work included replacing the temporary roofing sheets with new real welsh slates; construction of a new parapet gutter; the addition of insulation, and fire barriers within the roof void; replacement of rotten roof timbers; repair and renewal of damaged or missing stone and brickwork, especially to the gables at each end. The existing contemporary rooflights were retained and re-incorporated, to ensure the continuation of good quality daylight to the north-facing classrooms.

Installation of Air Filters

Following on from the installation of air-purifiers in the rooms of the kindergartens in the previous year, the same model of (quiet) air-purifiers were installed in the two classrooms of the First Floor, North Aisle. Further models of the floor-mounted mobile version of the air-purifiers were purchased and placed in the remaining four classrooms (First, Second, and Third Floors) in the school. This work was funded by the SPCG (The St Paul’s Community Group) at a cost of £13,252 , paid for and included in the accounts for St Paul's Steiner School's financial statements.

Financial review

The building restoration and development

The current building lease arrangement is based on a £500 rent with an additional annual maintenance amount paid from St Paul's Steiner School to St Paul's Steiner School Building, of £92,500 (2020 - £92,500) per annum for restoration. Since 1995, over £1,000,000 of restoration work has been carried out to the former church building which has been raised from fees, donations, and grants.

The work was supported by a donation from St Paul's Steiner School of £20,000.

The repair works identified in the 2018 Quinquennial Inspection Report, together with restoration/reinstatement obligations under the Listed Building Consents and Planning Permissions, are estimated to be some £2,070,000, to restore the building fabric as follows:

Tower and East elevation external windows and stonework 260,000

West elevation external windows and stonework 100,000
Sundry items 270,000
Total £2,070,000

Overall the charity has a small deficit for the year of £1,57 5 , compared to a surplus in the year to 31 August 2020 of £48,135

In total, £80,02 2 was invested in the repair and restoration work.

Policy on reserves

Until the renovation and adaption of the church is complete, the trustees of St Paul's Steiner Project do not expect to hold significant levels of free reserves. The project can only proceed at the rate at which funds can be generated. The current total unrestricted reserves total £1,330,853, of this £5,184 is designated.

The majority of the general unrestricted reserves is needed for future depreciation charges from leasehold buildings. The trustees feel the free reserves equate to £144,660.

Major risks and management of those risks

The trustees have a risk management strategy which comprises an ongoing review of the risks the charity may face; the establishment of systems and procedures to mitigate the identified risks; and the implementation of procedures designed to minimise any potential impact on the charity should those risks materialise.

Structure, governance and management

St Paul’s Steiner School Building is a company limited by guarantee and governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association. It is registered as a charity with the Charity Commission.

The Trustees, who are also the directors for the purpose of company law, and who served during the year and up to the date of signature of the financial statements were:

2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements

In the application of the ’s accounting policies, the Trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.

Tangible fixed assets are depreciated over their useful lives taking into account residual values, where appropriate. The actual lives of the assets and residual values are assessed annually and may vary depending on a number of factors. In re-assessing asset lives, factors such as technological innovation, product life cycles and maintenance programmes are taken into account. Residual value assessments consider issues such as future market conditions, the remaining life of the asset and projected disposal values.

The carrying amount is £1,181,009 (2020 - £1,212,248)
