## **Independent Examiners Report to the Members** 

I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of Surbiton High School Parents Association, Charity Number 1058888, for the year ended 31 July 2020. 

## **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 independent examiner’s 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: 

1   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 

2   to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

Surbiton High School Parents' Association **Notes to the Accounts** 

All amounts relate to unrestricted funds 

## 1 **Receipts and Payments Accounting** 

As the Association's gross income is less than £250,000, accounts are prepared on the receipts and payments basis.  This form of accounting purely reports the actual cash receipts and payments made in the reporting period. 

## 2 **Event Results** 

Due to the timing of payments and receipts, the accounting policy (Note 1) can provide a distorted picture of an event result. 

Some events either have income received or expenses paid in a prior year or expenses that have not been paid.  The impact of this on the reported result for certain events is as follows: 

|**_New Parents Evening_**<br>September 2020 events<br>September 2019 events<br>September 2018 events<br>**Net cash surplus reported**<br>**_Dad's camping_**<br>June 2020 event<br>June 2019 event<br>**Net cash surplus reported**|**2019/20**<br>**£**<br>_Event cancelled_<br>3,461<br>-<br>**3,461**<br>**2019/20**<br>**£**<br>(73)<br>(144)<br>**(217)**|**2018/19**<br>**£**<br>1,568<br>1,765<br>**3,333**<br>**2018/19**<br>**£**<br>-<br>5,249<br>**5,249**|**2018/17**<br>**Actual**<br>**event**<br>**surplus**<br>**£**<br>**£**<br>-<br>5,029<br>4,437<br>6,202<br>**4,437**<br>**Actual**<br>**event**<br>**surplus**<br>**£**<br>(73)<br>5,105|
