W8 obtained an underslandlng of the 18gal and regulatory frameworks wlhin which the charity and group oper*s, focusing on those laws and regul8llons that havè a direct effect on the determination of material amounts and disclosures In the financial slalemenls. The laws and regulatKJns wè consld8red Ihls context were the Charities Act 2011 together with the Charities SORP {FRS102). We assessed the required compliance with these laws and regulations as part of our audit procedures on the relat¢d finan¢k?I statement items. In addition, we considered provisbns of oth&r Iqw8 and rogulalions that do not havo a dlrecl effect on the flnancial 8tatements but complianc& with whlch might be fundamental to the school's and the group's ability to oporalg or lo avoid a material penalty. We also considerod the opportunities and Incentives thot may oxlst wfthin the charity and tho group for fraud. The laws and regulations we considered in this context for the UK operations were rhe Education (Independent School Standards) Regulations 2014. We identifEd the greatest risk of materlal impact on the financlal statements from irregularities, including fraud to bg within the liming of recognition of fee extra8, donation, other incomg, CJRS income and the override of controls by management. Our audit procedures lo respond lo these risks included enquiries of management about their idenlifioallon and assessment of the risks of irregularities, pgrforming sample l&sling for each Cal￿Ory of income, pgrforming cut-off testing for income, sample teskn'ng on tho posting of joumals, revlowing accounting eslimales for biases, remewlng regulatory correspon4J&nce wth th8 Charity Commission, Independent Schools Inspecloral8, Ofsted and reading mlnules of meetings of those charged with govornance.

For example, the further removed non￿ompliance with laws and regulation8 (irregularities) Is from the ev8nts and transacllons reflected In the financial statements, the less likely the Inheronlly limited procedures rgquired by audtting stsndards would Idenlfy it. In addition, as with any audit, there remained a higher risk of non-deleclion of irrogularilie$, as these may involve colluskjn, forgery, intentional omls8lon8, misrepresontations, or the overylde of inlornal controls.
