INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT
Independent examlnerfs reiKlrt to the trustees of The Frlends of Langley Park School for Boys
I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Friends of Langley Park School for
Boys forthe year ended 31 July 2024.
Respectlve responslbllltles of trustees and examlner
The charity's trustees are ￿sponsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity's trustees
consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the
2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibillty to:
examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act;
to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directlons given by the Charlty
Commission under section 145(5){bl of the 2011 Act;
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basls of Independent examinerfs report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the general Directions given by the Charity
Commission. An examlnation 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 you as trustee5
con￿mIng any such matters. The Pro￿dureS 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 vievf and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement
below.
Independent examlnerfs 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 requlrements:
to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act:
and to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the
accounting requirements of the 2011 Act have not been met; or
2. to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in orderto enable a proper
understanding of ttr￿ accounts to be ￿aChed.
