'Pupils first, is a guiding principle for all decision making. Arising from the School's Chflstian heritsge and cultural background, at the heart of a Cranleigh èducation are four central values of SeNice, Relationships, Leadership and Excellence. seN1￿.. All in the community are encouraged to adopt an attitude of service to each other and the wider community. Relat￿nShipS.. Strong relationships are fostered as a priority in a predominantly boarding community. Children flourish within safe, supportive environments. Leadarship..

Primary objectives In order to achieve Ils aims the School has devebped primary objectives which are.. to provide a stimulating learning environment in which pupils are encouraged to pursue and stretch their academic polenlial. to provide a happy and secure pastoral environment in which pupils can learn to live together and thus foster a sense of community, co-education, respect for one another and good citizenship,. the pursuit of best practi￿ in safeguarding young people will always be a priority., to provide pupils with the opportunity to take advantage of a breadth of co<urricular activities in order to develop positively all aspects of their character.,

Strategles to achleve primary objoctlves The primary objective is to provide a sb'mulaling learning environment and this is achieved by 169 FTE leachers12022'. 1661. These teachers strive to allow every pupil to develop their academic potential. This is achieved by focusing on each individual whilst fostering the broader ethos of the School's ommunity as a whole. The School's structure enables lulors, and at the younger age groups form teacheTS, to commit time and energy to their lutees arsd individual pupils in each form. The provision of a happy and secure pastoral environment is at the core of the School's approach to education. Pupils are cared for within a close 'house' structure that provides for comprehensive individual care based on Christian principles and a strong bond that creates friendships throughout the School. The second element of this objective is lo foster a sense of community and citizenship. This has been achieved through links With the local community and wth international and regional organisations. Over the past year the Prep School has hosted children from local primary schools lo join in when external providers, such as theatn.cal performers. have been in school. The children research and select charities which they wish to support throughout the year. The School supports library in a Socal primary school and Art teachers and DT teachers have been involved in outreach programmes in local state schools. There have been significant changes in the boarding provision both in tems of facilities and staffing. The Prep School has much better and rejuvenated boarding accommodation which has seen popularity of boarding and its community grow. The School has also invested in Learning Support facilities, placing them at the heart of the academic programme, physically and ideologically. The Prep School Code of Conduct clearly communicates expectations to pupils and helps them develop senses of responsibility, empathy and leadership. The cG<urriculum is broad. Leadership and decision-making aTe embedded in many activities. The number of activities on offer to pupils is too numerous to mention here. A clearer understanding of the whole school approach to the co-curriculum can be found at the School websites www.cranlei h.or and www.cran re .or Readers are encouraged to visit these siles. The School is committed lo improving equity, diversity and inclusion both as part of its social Purpose and to ensure pupils are better Prepared to be global citizens. The Governing Body has sel and published objectives to increase the number of international students to 1 OVO over the next five years., to increase the ethnic diversty of students from 7 /0 to a minimum of 100fi of the Cranleigh population over the next five years., to increase the ethnic diversity of staff in line with the ethnic diversity of pupils". to recruit to achieve an equitsble gender balance in middle and senior leadership positions over the next len years. Social purpose objectives are also partially met through the funding of bursaries from income from inlemational schools and the Cranleigh Foundation. Cranleigh Foundation Trustees, Report and Financial Statements outline the continued progress in the development of Cranleigh Foundation. The Foundation has received donations this year of £282k (2022.. £253kl. and total income of £397k12022'. £569kl. The Foundation supports Iransfom)alional bursaries for a number of pupils in year groups 7 to 13 al Cranleigh School. The Foundation Trustees decided pre-covid to focus activity on the development of an endowment which will be built up over decades whilst continuing to support Foundationer pupils through the award of Iransfom)ational

CRANLEIGH SCHOOL bursaries, often with assistance from external organisations such as Springboard. There is not currently a fund-raising strategy and in the medium term the School will be appointing a Development Director in this important area. The Charities therefore had no active fund-raising activities this year requiring disclosure under S162A of the Charities Act 2011. The School and Foundation are compliant with the General Data Protection Regulation IGDPRI. STRATEGIC REPORT ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE Review of achievements and performance lor the year The principal activity, as specified in the Articles of Association, is the advancement of education and. in this. the School has had another successful. albeit unique, year. Cranleigh School averaged 698 pupils12022. 6771 of whom 18312022.'1831 were day pupils and Cranleigh Prep School averaged 319 12022.. 3331 pupils. At the Prep School the flexib5e boarding arrangements continued lo be popular with. on average, circa 70 pupils boarding al the School each week in the newly refurbished boarding facilities which opened in September 2021. Wailing lists remain full for both schools and demand for places has increased again this year.

The detail of the reports highlighted the exceptionally high achievements of the pupils, in their academ stltdies and activities and the support of outstanding and innovative leaching, pastoral care, leadership and governance. Despite the well-publicised return to 2019 gTade distributions, the school's public examination results were very strong al every level. Al A Level, 170kn of A level exams were graded al A"12019'. 11 DAI and 81 Yo graded at A'_ B grade 12019.. 77%). Despite this year's grades being lower than lasl yearfs, the 2022 results should be viewed as a one-off. The approach the exam boards took to grading was to reflect a midpoint between summer 2019 and 2021. Schools were therefore asked to make more meaningful compaiisons with 2019 Tesults, which was when exams were last sal. Despite the concems portrayed by the media 950A of Cranleigh's leavers were successful in securing places al their university of choice. The School continues to be encouraged that for more academically able pupils students are gaining places and scholarships al Ivy League universities and other leading universities in Ameri¢a and of those gaining places in the UK. 78Yo entered Russell Group or equivalent unlversilies.

This year saw a superb dance show in the summer which showcased the brilliant work of all the groups and there were various other opportunits.es for pupils to perform during the year, There were once again a huge number of wide-ranging House wmpeb'tions from the plethora of sports events to academic public speaking and general kno￿edge quizzes, right through to a Year 9 dance and House part-song singing competition al the House performance show in September. A rich and varied programme ef clubs and societies run each week and one notable highlight was the highly successful design club. A Cranleigh team was prepared for the National Robotics competition and surpassed all expectations in qualifying lo represent UK at the VEX Robotics World championship in Dallas, Texas and finished a very creditable 65th out of 800 sehools. An extensive range of educational visits took place this year with a rapid increase in demand for overseas trlps of all varieties from sports tours around Europe, volunteering and charitable ventures as far away as Zambia and many other ultural and academic enriching trips from London to USA At Cranleigh Prep School Year 8 produced film versions of Lord of the Flies, Noughls and Crosses and Romeo and Juliet. Year 7 staged Seussical the Musical and Year 5 impressed with A Funny Thing Happened on the way lo Camelot. Twenty nine pupils attempted LAMDA exams in the summer, all of whom attained Distinctions. The Chapel Choir Continues to be popular and the Chamber Choir sang in local care home. One pupil was selected to sing with the National Youth Choir. another with the National Children's Choir of Great Britain. There was a busy schedule of refurbishment work al the School during the latter part of this period, which saw over 90 smaller projects CoMp￿ted over the summer. Public beneflt Cranleigh Schtsol continues to be committed to the provision of public benefit in accordance with its founding principles. The requirement to report public benefit in more detail is formalised in the Charities Act2011. The awarding of bursaries is a measurable means of providing public benefit. The Trustees consider that bursaries, awarded lo those who would not otherwise be able lo afford the fees, are important. but notto the exclusion ofthe much wider benefit that Cranleigh provides within the local community. Those pupils who attend Cranleigh and who receive this financial support contribute lo the School commun'ty in 8 variety of ways and so enrich the whole School and, in some cases. the community outside the School. The value of scholarships and bursaries to people who would not otherwise be able to afford the fees to attend Cranleigh School was this year£1,141k12022.' £1.1 Ookl. The value of these bursaries has been met by funding from international schools. income from the Cranleigh Foundation and enterprises such as summer lets. In addition to bursaries, the School has engaged in many activities that provide public benefit in accordance to the Charity's objectives, and these are listed in a register maintsined by the School. The School was quick to offer support lo Ukrainian families fleeing the war and initially tCx)k in four pupils with two remaining in the longer term. Fund-raising activities lo those effected by the war have been held regularly since February 2022. There have been many other charitable events in support of the objects during the year. Some examples are.. partnerships with local maintained schools so that teachers from Cranleigh School teach at local maintained schools if there is a need ftir enhancement in particular area and three members of staff are governors at local primary schools. The School's outreach programme into the community is active and has, during the year, involved activities such as the relief of hardship through support by Cranleigh Mission and support lo local sports clubs. Forty- eight local sports clubs used the School's 5POrting facilities. and outreach assistance includes maintenance by the School's Grounds department of the estate at Glebelands School, the maintained 11

CRANLEIGH SCHOOL secondary school bordering Cranleigh School. In many cases the School's support is focused on providing support lo the youth sections of sports clubs. The School has formed a good relationship with the Surrey Virtual School supporting educational programmes for looked after children. This theme of social responsibility is irnportanl as Cranleigh School aims to develop loeal communtty projects. CranIe￿h has focused its partnership activities on literacy outreach. The OECD report 'Reading for Change, suggests that literacy has the single biggest impact on social mobility and research from the National Literacy Trust illustrates the link between low literacy and poverty. Collaborating wf(h the National Literacy Trust and Cranleigh CofE primary school. a school which has a quarter of children on full school meals, Cranleigh has undertaken a number of initiatives as part of a Young Readers, Programme.. storytelling and reading for pleasure events., teacher training.. the provision of over 500 books and Cranleigh's Sixth Form pupils assisting with events and reading engagement aclivilies. A separate impact report highlights that the project has enhanced reading culture with positive changes in reading enjoyment, reading motivation, frequency and attainment. The School is also taking a leading ole in sharing this expertise through the West Surrey Schools Partnership which has taken literacy as its major focus. expanding the impact across a greater range of primary providers in the area. Continuing the focus on literacy. following the example of our partner school in Zambia. the charity the School collaborates with has rolled out the Jolly Phonics literacy programme across the Copperbelt Province in all 515 government and community schools in Grade 3, the point al which pupils are expected to start to read and write in English as guided by the Zambian National Curriculum. Over the last 6 years, over 3,500 teachers have been trained in Jolly Phonics, which has enabled them to go on to develop the literacy of over 150,000 pupils. Consistently. pupils using Jolly Phonics have scored or three limes higher than pupils in non-Jo11y Phonics classes. It is difficult, lo measure accurately the financial cost to the School of this public benefit. that is given in addition to bursaTies, bul il is certainly well into six figures. The benefit provided by bursaries and other activities can also be considered alongside the benefit of educating the 1.017 pupils1176 in the primary school sector) which, in itself, has saved the exchequer some £6.876,5001 this year. Cranleigh Foundation is an integral element in the provision of pubbic benefft. There are seven Foundation bursary holders (Foundalionersl in the School in September 2023 each with a bursary covering either full fee$ or a significant proportion of full fees. The School continues lo seek candidates to be Foundationers. The financial benefit to Foundationers this year was £253k (2022.. £237k). 2022 Annual Report on Education Spending in England by the Insti￿te of Fi%al Studies. £6,900 per pupil in Secondary schools and £6,100 per pupil in prinw sthools. 12

CRANLEIGH SCHOOL FINANCIAL REVIEW Results for the year The School's consolidated nel movement in funds in the attached financial statements is £2,639k12022'. {£1.496}. The surplus made by Cranleigh School (net incoming funds from operations before transfers and investment gains) was £3,138k for the year12022'. £2,032kl. The FRS 102 pension valuation is a non-cash item wthin the School's accounts and has calculated that the scheme has a nel actuarial loss recognised in the year of £450k. however the funding level is in surplus by £1,267k12022.' actuarial gain of £44kl. Forecast for the current year120231241 The Governing Body has considered several factors when forming their conclusion as to the use of the going concern basis for the basis of prep8ralion of these f5nancial statements including a review of updated forecasts to 31 December 2025. There has been comprehensive consideration of key risks that could negatively affect the charity and ils working capital requirements. The primary risks are considered to be inflation and fuel costs. There is some mitigation from these costs because there are a record number of pupils in the School at the start of the school year in September 2023. The Governing Body has concluded that School's finances and for the year ahead are sound and so it conb'nues to adopt the going concem basis in preparing the financial statements. Investment policy, objectives and perfomiance The Governing Body has a balanced risk policy for investments. This is set out in the Statement of Investment Principles which is reviewed annually. The Finance Committee has delegated responsibility for investments to an Investment Commrttee. The Investment Committee comprises the Chair of the Finance Committee, two former members of the Governing Body who each have specialist knowledge and the Director of Finance. The Committee meet the School's investment advisors four limes a year and provide a brief for the Governing Body at each Finance Committee meeting. Investment performance is measured against appropriate benchmarks and the Finance Committee is satisfied that performance is good when measured against benchmarks. This year performance has been below inflation and the portfolio increased in value by 0.8Vo {2022". ~12.0 /DI lo £4.159k. The Governing Body considers the performance of investments over the year are in line wlh benchmark total returns. ReseNes level and pollcy Cranleigh School has total reserves of £9,1 S9k12022.' £9,128kl. The School's reserves policy is to maintain sufficient unrestricted funds lo meet an unexpected shortfall of revenue in order to provide cash for three months operating costs al an average of £2,611 k per month. The School's reserves Comprise the investment portfolio valued al £4.159k the unused bank facility of £2,OOOk and unused overdraft of £3.OOOk. Total reserves at 31st July therefore exceeded the £7,833k sum required by the policy. The Charity has not conducted active fund-raislng during the year.

Prin¢ipal risks and uncertalntles Cranleigh School Governing Body is responsible for the management of the risks faced by the School. Risk Management is dele9aled to the Risk Management Group IRMGI which reports fomially to the Governing Body each autumn. This Committee comprises four members of the Governing Body and it is assisted ir4 its work by senior management and other staff as necessary. The process provides continuous assessment of risks through the auspices of the sub committees with each taking responsibility for risks, and where appropriate mitigation, in its given area of expertise. The generic controls used by the Charity to minimise risks include.. 13

CRANLEIGH SCHOOL oversight of key areas of risk, such as health and Safety and safeguarding, by individually nominated governors., formal agendas for Comm5ttee and Board aclivty.. formal strategic planning, reviewed annually and assisted by the Strategy and Risk Commtttee., comprehensive budgeting and management accounting.. established organisational structures and lines of reporting., formal written policies., vetting procedures as required by law for the protection of the vulnerable., Complian￿ with regulations that apply to the running of a school-, declaration of conflicts of interest. renewed at each Governing Body meeting. including Sub committee meetings. The most significant external risks facing the School are the conlinualion of inflationary pressures and, in the medium term. the potential for a future government to change the ways in which independent schools and their parents are taxed. In consideration of both of these financial risks. the RMG considers that, because inflation is now falling, it has a lower impact than last year and the possible imposition of VAT is dependent on politics and, as such, there are significant un￿rtaInlies. Both these financial risks are kept under regular review and mitigation strategies are both developing and adapting. Previous direction given to the executive lo place safeguarding of pupils as the School's first priority is enduring. Health and Safety is both a Safeguarding and more general risk. and both risks are residual and so will endure. The School continues lo priorilise safeguarding culture and education, refreshing and updating a comprehensive programme of sex and relationships education. The School has also priorilised anti- racist education and a governors, working party formed in 2021 supports the School's leadership in the introduction of more comprehensive EDI initiatives, in partnership with Flair Impact, the African Caribbean Education Network and Black Lives in Music. Work on decolonising the curriculum continues and the Assistant Head Pastoral. who sils on the board of the Schools Inclusion Nelmork. has involved pupil leaders in improvements to more inclusive practice and language and strengthened education and alliance activities wth all those with protected characteristics. An Independent Schools Inspectorate report carried out in November 2022 highlighted the inclusiveness of the school's culture and the strength of its safeguarding pr0￿dUreS. The level and breadth of activity at the School is impressive and the risks associated with all activities are minimised by thorough planning and risk asses$ment. Sports, injuries are monitored carefully. each being tracked. to record trends in order to identify those elements of sport most likely to cause injury so that mitigating actions can be taken. To release any potential pressures on the NHS ambulance servi￿, and prevent further risk of injury, all matches this term continue lo have private medical facilities on the touch line. There continues lo be interest in the wider education community about the risk of injury on the rugby field. The Governing Body seeks to understand some individual risks in more detail and from time-lo-time initiates external scrutiny. The Governing Body is satisfied Ihatthe major risks have been identified and controls put in place lo manage risk adequately. It is recognised that systems can provide reasonable, but not absolute. assurance that major risks are being managed. 14

CRANLEIGH SCHOOL Future plan$ The School Development Plan of 2015 has been completed. A new development cycle wlll Commence with the succession of the Heads al both schools who will work closely with the executive and Governing Body. It is anlicipaled that the enduring core work of planning is that Cranleigh School wll continue lo articulate and extend ils culture through Cranleigh ThiTnking* Cranleigh Being and Cranleigh Glvlng. Cranleigh Thinkingteaches pupils lo think beyond the test, lo become independent learners who know how lo learn, adapting to changing contexts. Cranleigh Being promotes a culture in which who we are and how we are is as important as what we achieve and in which the well-being of all in the community is a priority. Cranleigh Glvlng encourages all in the communlty lo think beyond themselves and lo consider how they will share their fesources, lime and expertise. It also seeks lo widen a¢￿sS to Cranleigh, offering opportunities to young people from a diverse range of backgrounds and experience. Together, these themes express the aspiration that all members of the community are encouraged to be thinking. being, giving individuals who are able to consider who they are, what they will be and how they will be now and in the future. It IS this aspiration that is to be taken fO￿ard in the next school development plan. 15

Independent Auditorfs Report to the Members of Cranleigh School Oplnion We have audited the flnancial statements of Cranleigh School I'the chaTilable company'} and ils subsidiarie5 {'the group'l for the year ended 31 July 2023 which comprise Statement of Financial Activities, Consolidated and Company only Balan￿ Sheets, Consolidated Statement of Cashflows and notes to the financial stalemenls, including significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland IUni(ed Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

Vve are independent of the group in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements In the UK, including the FRC'S Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have oblained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. Conclusions relatlng to going concern In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the tru$lee's use of the going concem basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have perfomied. we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively. may cast significant doubt on the charitable company's or the group's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least Imelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue. Our responsibilitr'es and the responsibilities of the trustees wlh respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this repott Other Informatlon The Iruslees are responsible for the other infomation contained within the annual report. The other infomiation comprises the information included in the annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditorfs report Ihereon. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report. we do not express any form of assuran￿ conclusion thereon. Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or othenMise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misslalements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misststement in the financial slalements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed. we conclude that there is a material rnisststemenl of this other information, we are required lo report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. 17

In preparlng the financial statements, the tru8tees are responsible for assessing the charitable company's ability lo continue as a going concern. disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the charitable company or lo cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but lo do so. AudltoVs responsibilities for the audlt of the flnanclal statements Our objeGb"ves are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole aTe free from material misstatement. whether due lo fraud or error, and lo issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but 18 not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAS IUKI will always detect a material misslatemenl when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected lo influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial ststemenls. Details of the extent to which the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularllies, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations are sel out below. A further description of our responsibilits'es for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at.. www.frc.or .uklauditorsres nsibilities. This description foms part of our auditor's report. 18

Extent to which the audlt was ¢onsiderod capable of detectlng Irregularities, including fraud Irregularities, including fraud, are instsnces of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We identified and assessed the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements from irregularits'es, whether due to fraud or error, and discussed these between our audit team members. We then designed and performed audit procedures responsive to those risks, including obtaining audit evidence sufficient and appropriate lo provide 8 basis for our opinion. We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks within whKh the charitable company and group operates, focusing on those laws and regulations that have a direct effect on the delerminalion of material amount5 and disclosures in the financial stalemenls. The laws and regulations we considered in this context were the Companies Act 2006. tsxalion legislation, Icgether with the Charities SORP IFRS 1021. We assessed the required compliance with these laws and regulations as part of our audit procedures on the related financial statement items. In addition, we considered provisions of other laws and regulations that do not have a direct effect on the financial statements but compliance with whieh might be fundamental to the charitable eompany's and the group's ability to operate or to avoid a material penalty. We also considered the opportunf(ies and incentives that may exist within the charitable company and the group for fraud. The laws and regulations we considered in this context for the UK operations were The Education Ilndependenl School Slandardsl Regulations 2014. General Data Protection Regulation IGDPR}, Health and safety legislation and Employment legislation Vve also considered compliance wrth local legislation for the group's overseas operating segments. Auditing standards limit the required audit procedures to identify non-compliance with these laws and regulations to enquiry of the Trustees and other management and inspection of regulatory and legal correspondence, if any. We identified the greatest risk of material impact on the financial slalements from irregularities, including fraud, lo be within the timing of recognition of voluntary income, the liming of recognition of other trading aclivilies, and the override of controls by management. Our audit procedures lo respond lo these risks ineluded enquiries of management and the Finance Committee about their own identification and assessment of the risks of irregularities, sample testing on the posting of journals, analytical procedures and sample tesb'ng of income, reviewing accounting estimates for biases. reviewing regulatory correspondence with the Charity Commission, Independent Schools Inspectorate, Ofsted and reading minutes of meetings of those charged with governance. Owing to the inherent limitations of an audit, there is an unavoidable risk that we may not have detected some material misstatements in the financial statements, even though we have properly planned and performed our audit in accordance with auditing stsndards. For example, the further removed non-compli8n¢e with laws and regulations {irregularitiesl is from the events and transactions reflected in the financial stslements. the less likely the inherently limited procedures required by auditing standards would identify it. In addition. as with any audit, there remained a higher risk of non-detection of irregularities, as these may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal controls. We are not responsible for preventing non- compliance and cannot be expected to detect non-compliance with 811 laws and regulations. Use of our report This report is made solely lo the charitable company's membeTS, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might slate to the charitable company's members those matters we are required to slate to them in an auditor's report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law. we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charitable company and the charitable company's members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.
