The Group also generated a cash surplus which was sufficient lo cover planned annual investment in its facllitie5, servicin8 of loan flnancing of major capital investment projects and increase the Group's cash balance at year ènd. Thls further strengthened the Group's abillty to ensure that costs can be met a5 they fall due. The value of fee remissions awarded varie5 from year to year, depending on prevaiSin8 circumstances and the needs of each cohort. Whlle non me2ns-tested remisslons are being managed downwards, over time the value of mean5-tested remissions awarded is growing, in line with the School'5 ambition for it5 education to be as widely accessible as posslble. Total income includes investment income of £4k12021.. £lkl and also £1.4m12021.. £584kl of donations. The 2021-22 school year saw a welcome return to uninterrupted in-person, on-slte learnlng for the Royal Grammar School Guildford IRGSGI. A full programme of sporting activities and clubs could resume and, from the Trlnity term onwards, overseas trips could once more be planned. With the return to on-site learning and an increased range of activlties, expenditure on resources and running of the school buildings returned to pre- pandemic levels. With effect from 31st August 2021, the RGSG has elected to withdraw from the Surrey County Councll Superannuation Fund and finalise its pension liability, in respect of this scheme, as at that date. A final valuation invoice for £1.7m, which is favourable to previous estimates, has been received from the Fund and 15 fullv provided for in these accounts. 15 RGS Guildford Qatar has continued to operate successfully. The school educates around 680 students and is likelv to increase number5 in coming years. A new secondary school building was opened in October 2022. Income arlslng from the Qatars school has returned to being received without slgnificant delav. RGSGI Dubai opened successfully in September 2021. The outlook for the school is good wlth steady Increases in student numbers and income confidently expected. In China, the operating environment for RGSGI Nanling continues to difficult due to covid restrictions and regulations on private education in China. We hope that the covid 511uatlon wlll Improve over 2022-23 but predict that regulations on private education in China will continue to affect and may restrict future business opportunities of RGSGI China Ltd. Financlal results, nonetheless, were favourable to budget. With the ongoing war in Ukralne, we continue to see challenges around energy prices. rising Interest rates, inflatlon and publlc finances and expect the economic outlook to remain unpredictable and turbulent for the immediate future. Despite this outlook, demand for the schools remain high 2nd it is believed likely that pupll numbers will be maintained in the foreseeable fLJture and collectlon of fee Income continue5 to be positive. The Directors have considered the Impact of these factors on the GTOUP'S operating model and financial position and thls15 further detalled in the 'Reserves level and policy, and financial viabillty, section. below. Reserves level and pollcyi and flnancial viabllity The v3st majority of the Group's funds are held in the form ol the buildings and physical asset5 of the School. At year end the Group reports tot21 funds of £41.Sm12021'. £40.6ml which includes £2.Im of unspent restrlcted incomè12021.. £1.Iml. Net current 8ssets- br¢)adly equivalent to liquid re5erve5- of £8,3m were held at the end of the year12021'. £5.2ml. The Group seeks to carry sufficient but not significant levels of free reserves for tontingency purposes. Throughout the year the level of liquld reserves was adequate to meet commitments as they fell due, without recourse to addltSonal borrowing. Free reserve$ as at 31 July 2022 equalled £6.Im12021.. £5.4ml. We have prepared a number of scenarS05 that conslder our cash position, sources of income and planned expenditure. DeTNand for places at the School remains strong. Nonethele5S, these scenari05 consider reduced pupil numbers, delayed lee payment and potential bad debts, cost inflation and Sncreased interest rates. Sensltivity around these assumptions has also been considered in our forecasting. The scenarios also consider the terms znd conditions of the ex55tlng bank facilitSes. Results of this cash flow and sensltivity analysis indicate that the cash reserves of the charity are sufficient to meet the charity's obligations as they fall due. Having re8ard to the above, the directors believe il appropriate to adopt the golng concern basis of accountln8 in preparlng the flnanclal statements. Investment pollcyi oblectlves and pèrforman¢e The Group reviews its Investment pollcy annually and adapts it if appropriate. The policy is based on the following principles..

Fundraising Fundrai5irig for the Group'5 funding priorities is carried OLJt by the Royal Grammar School, Guildford Foundation Limited, which raises funds for bursaries. The costs of the Foundation are met entirely by the School. The Foundation's fundraising activities are exclusively carried out by an in-house staff team, funded by the School. The Foundation adheres to the Code of Fundraislng Practice when undertaking fundraising actlvitv. Fundraising activity is limited to those with an existing connection to the School and includes a limited amount of funding from Trusts. Major donor and one-to-one fundraising are the FoundatSon's key n)ode of fundraislns which helps to ensure that philanthropic relationships ere not developed with anyone who might be vulnerable or be in vulnerable circumstances. FUTURE PLANS The Group's development plans were agreed by Governors and are subject to annual review. The maln plans for the next year to help the School achieve its objettlves are.. To fulfil the School's charitable aims by spreading educational bést prartlce, offerlng bursarie5, and benefitting the communitv. To contSnue to develop mutually beneliclal partner5hlps with other educational establishments at a local, natlon81 and international level. To enhance further the support for students, and staff welfare and personal development. To foster outstanding teaching ènd learning To continue to work towards widenlng access to the School for students with limited means These plans underpin Indlvldual detailed development plans for each area, which will enhance the Group's ability to provide an exceptional education. RISK MANAGEMENT The Dirertors have examined the principal areas of the Group, operations and considered the m3jor risks faced In each of these areas. The rlsk a55essmenl is updated at least annually, and more frequently if appropriate to take Into account changlng circumstances. The risk assessments are considered by the RGSG Education commiltee, the RGS Prep committee and the boards ol the indivldual c¢mpanles as approprlate before passing to the F&GP committee and the Board for discussion. The main risks that have been identSfled are.. Cyber-attzck, causing major theft, 1055 or corruption of data or systems that could damage the school'5 operaticins, finances or repLJtation. The safety of systems is regLJl8rly r¢viewed along with the development of disaster recovery 5ySterns, the review of policies and passwords, with updates and training for staff on these. Failure to retain the Headmaster of the RGSG or RGSG Prep could detrimentally affect the schools, admissions and performance. The development of members of the senior team in each school and ongoing support of the 80vernors will help reduce the impact of a change of Head. Uncertainties for the economy post Brexlt could further affect parents, finances alld could lead to Increased debts to the school and burden on the hardship bursary provision. Careful consideration of budgeting, cost management and fee levels and debt management will be made and kept under review. Changes in the political climate could lead to the introduction of legislation that could lead to financial pressure on Independent schools. The outcomes of policles publici5ed by polltical parties are kept under review. Incidents that have the potential to damage the reputation of the School. This could cover a wide range of incSdents so careful consideration to legislation, regulations, school policies, health and safety etc must be maintained and reviewed by staff and governors to ensure compliance in all areas. Incidence of a pandemic adversely impacting on the schools. abllity to deliver education comblned with the economic impact aff@¢ting parents, finances and ability to pay school fee5. Excellent remote teaching and learning capabilily was rolled out and enhanced by the school during the initial period of lockdown, signifi¢antl¥ mitlgating the risk of the schools being unable to deliver quality education. Special regular meetings of the Senior Manasement Teams of both schools are convened to address the efnerglng issues for Covid-19 on a day-by.day basis. with regular updates to directors, and performance against revised forecasts is reviewed regularly to monltor cash and resources. These continued throughout the Summer and remain ongoing in the following school year The Group has established a review system and allocated sufficiont resources to ensure that those risks identified have been mitigated to a level acceptable for the Group's day to day operations. The Group regLJlarly reviews the effectiveness ol current plans and strategies for managing all identified major risks forthe School and other group organisations. The Annual Report which includes the Strate8ic Report was approved by the Charity and signed on its behalf by.. S, December 2022 Mrs S K Creedy 18 Independent AudltoVs Report to the Members of 1509 Group Opinion We have audlted the fSnanclal statements of the 1509 Group I'the charitable company'l and its subsldSaries I'the group'l for the year ended 31st July 2022 which comprise the Consolidated Statement of Financial Activltles, Consolldated and Charlty Balance Sheet5, Consolldated Statement of Cash Flows and notes to the financial statemen15, including significant a¢coLJntSng policles. The financial reporting frarnework that has been applied in their preparatlon 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 Iunlted Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

Basis for oplnlon We conducted our atjdit in accordance with Int@rnatlon31 Standards on Auditing IUKI IISAS IUKII and appllcable law. Our responsibilitie5 under those Standards are further described in the Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements Section of our report. We ère independent of the group in atcordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financS31 statements In the UK, inclLJdin8 the FRC'S Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordante with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtalned is sufficient and approprSate to provide a basis for our opinion. Conclusions relatlng to golng concern In auditing the financial statement5, we have concluded that the trustee's use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to event5 or conditions that, Indlvidually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charitable company's or the group'5 ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for Issue. Our responsibllllies and the responsibllities of the trustees wSth respect to 8olnB concern are described in the relevant sections of this report. Other informatlon The trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report. The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, other than the financial statement5 and our auditorfs report thereon. 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 assurance conclusion Ihereon. Our responsibility Is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconslstent with the flnancial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated, If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material mlsstatements. we are required to determlne whether thls gives rise to a material misstatement in the fSnanclal statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material mi55tatement of th55 Other InformatSon, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in thi5 regard. Opinions on other matters prescrlbed by the Companles Act 2006 In our opinion based on the work undertaken in the course of our audit the information given in the trustee5' report, which includes the directors, report and the strategic report prepared for the purposes of company law, for the flnancial year for which the financial statements are prepared Is consistent with the financial statements.. and the strategic report and the directors, report included within the trustees, report have been prepared in accordance with applicable lesal requirements. Matters on whlch wè are requlred to report by exceptlon In light of the knowledge and understanding of the group and charitable company and their environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misst3Eements in the strategic report or the directors, report included within the trustees. report. We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation lo which the Companies Act 2006 reqLJires us to report to you if, in our opinion.. adequate and proper accountlng records have not been kept,. or the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and return5; or certain disclosures of trustees, remuneration specified bylaw are not made., or we have not received all the information and explanations we require for OLJr audit. Responsibilitie5 of trustees As explained more fully In the trustee5' responsibilities statement, the trustees Iwho are also the director5 of the charitable company for the purposes of company lawl are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for bein8 Sat￿$fied that they give a true and fair view. and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material rn15Staternent. whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charitable company's abllitv to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees esther Intend to liquidate the charitable company or to cease operation5, tsr have no reali51ic alternative but to do so. Audltorfs responslbllltles for the audlt of the flnan¢lal statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the finan¢lal statement5 as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Re250nable assurance is a high level of assurance. but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAS IUKI will always detect a material misstatement when It eMi5ts. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, In(Jivldually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economlc decisions of users taken on the basis of these fSnanci31 statements. Details of the extent to which the audit was considered capable of detectlnE Irre8ularlties, Includin8 fraud and non-compllance with laws and regulation5 are set Dut below. A further description of our responsibilities for the audSt of the flnancial statement5 15 located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at.. www.frc.or auditorsres onsibilities. This description forms part of our audltorfs report. Extent to whlch the audlt was consldered capable of dete¢tln8 Irregularltles, Includlrbg fraud rregularilies, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We identified and assessed the risks of material misstatement of the financlal st3t@ments from irregularities, whether due to fraud or error, and discussed these between our audit team members. We then designed and perlorme(J audit procedures responsive to those risks, Includin8 obtaSning audit @videncè sufficient and appropriate to provide basis for our opinion. We obtalned an LJnd@rstandln8 of the legal and regulatory frameworks within which the charitable company and group operates, focusing on those laws and regulations that have a direct effect on the determination of material amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The laws and regulations we considered in this context were the Companie5 Act 2006, taxation legislation, employment legislation and general data protection leÉlslatlon, together wlth the Charitles SORP IFRS 1021. We assessed the required compliance with these laws 20 and re8ulatlons as part of OLJr audit procedLJres on the related flnancial st2tpment items. In additlon, we considered provislons of other laws and regulations that do not have a direct effect on the financial statements but compliance with which might be fundamental to the charitable company's and the group's ability to operate or to avoid a material penaSty. We also considered the opportunities and incentives that may exist within the charitable company and the group for fraud. The laws and regulations we considered in this context for rhe UK operations were The Education Ilndependent School Slandardsl Regulations 2014. Auditing standards limit the required audit procedures to identify non-compliance with these law5 and regulations to enquiry of the Trustees and other management and inspection of regulatory and legal correspondence, if any. We identified the groètest rlsk of materlal Smpatt on the financial statements from irregularities. includin8 fraud, to be within the timing and recognition of non-fee income, procurement processes for significant capital projects and the override of controls by management. Our audit procedures to respond to these risks included enquirie5 of management and the Finance and GerTreral Purp05e5 Committee about their own identification and assessment of the risks of irregularities, sample testing on the posting of journals, reviewing accounting estimates for biases, reviewing regulatory correspondence with the Charity Commission, Indep@ndent Schools Inspectorate, Ofsted and reading minutes of meetings of those charged with governance. Owing to the inherent limitations of an a￿d￿t, there is an unavoidable risk that we may not have detected some rnaterial misstatements in the financial statements, even though we have properly planned and performed oijr audit in accordance with auditing standards. For exampl@, the further removed non-compliance with laws and re8ulatlons lirregularltiesl is from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, the less Ilkely the inherently limited procedures required by auditing standards would Identify it. In addltion. as with anv audit, there remained a higher rlsk of non-detectlon of Irregularitles, as these may involve collusion, forgerv, Intentional omlssions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal controls. We are not responsible for preventing non-compliance and cannot be expected to detect non-compliance with all laws and règulations.

The financial statements have been prepared to give a 'true and fair, view and have departed from the Charities IAccounts and Reports) regulations 2008 only to th@ extent required to provide a 'true and fair, view. This departure has invoSved following Accounting and Reporting by Charitles preparing thelr accounts In accordance wlth the Financlal Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and RepLJblic of Ireland IFRS 1021 issued on 16 Julv rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities.. Statement of Recommended Practice effective from I Aprll 2005 whlch has slnce been withdrawn. They are drawn up under the historltal c05t convention as modified by the revaluation, at fair value, of investments. At the time of approval of the Annual Report. turbulence continues to be experienced In the UK economy, with rising interest and inflation rates, and th@ long terfH impact on the charity, in comrnon with other businesses, remains unknown. The charity holds significant cash lJa13nces supplemented, if needed, by an overdraft facllitv. Demand for school places at Royal Grammar School Guildford remain$ 5tron8, with continuing higtri numbers enrolled for the academic year 2022123. Collection of fee income continues to be robust. Conservative cash flow odelllng with sensltlvity analysis Indlcates that the cash resèrves of the charity are adequate to meet the charity's obli6ations as they f311 due. Accofdingly, the Directors believe the Group's financial resource5 are sufficient to ensure the Group w511 tontinue as a going concern for the foreseeable future, beina at least 12 tYoNths from the dale of approval of th@ flnanclal statements and have therefore prepared the financial statements on a going concern basis. The functional currency of the Group is considered to be GBP because that is the currency of the primary economic envlronment in which the Group operates. The Group is a Public Benefit Entity registered as a charity in England and Wales, Company Number 1084866, Charlty Number 4104101. Its re8lStered office Is The Royal Grammar School GuSldford, High Street, Guildford, Surrey GUI 388. Crltlcal Accountln Jud ements and Ke Sources of Estimation Un¢ertalnt In the application of the accountlng pollcies, the Dlrectors are required to rllake judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying value ol assets and liabilitie5 that are not readily apparent from other source5. The estimates and underlying assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may diffèr from these estimate5. The estimates and underlying assumptlons are revlewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the perlod in which the estlmate Ss revlsed Sf the revision only affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods If the revision affected currerit znd future periods, The key source of estimatlon uncertainty that has a significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial Statements are described in the accountlng policies and are summarised below.. Penslon Ilabllitles the charlty recognlses Its Ilablllty to its defined beneflt penslon scheme whlch involves a number of estimations as disclosed in note 16. The following accounting policies have beèn applied con515tently in dealing with items which are considered materlal in relatlon to the Group's flnènclal statements.. Statement of Financlal Actlvitles SOFA The Group ha5 two types of fund-. Restrltted- where the purposes for whlch the funds May be used have been restricted by donors,. and Unrestricted- where the fund is not restricted a5 to Use other than in furthering the objects of the School. These include Designated Funds, where the funds are unrestricted, butthe Directors have designated them for a speclfic purpose. Income and Ex endlture Income and Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis with the exception of income from gifts and legacies. These are reco8nised when the charity is legally entitled to the income, the amount can be measured with reasonable accuracy, and the economic benefit lo the School is considered probable. Fees and similar income Fees rece5vable and charges for servlces and use of premises are accounted for In the period in which the servlce 15 provided. Fees receivable are stated after deductible allowances, scholarships and remissions allowed by The School, but include contrlbutions received from Bur5arles funds. Donations and Le acies Donations received for the general purpose of the Group are credited to income. Donations subject to specific wishes of the donor5 are carried to relevant restricted funds or used within the year for the appropriate purpose. Gifts in kind are valued at estimated open rllarket value at the date of tho gift, in the case of assets for retention or consumption, or at the value to the Group in the case of donated services or facilities. Legacies are taken to unrestricted fund5 unless speclfied for a partScular purpose In which case they are taken to restricted funds. Income from Government Grants No Government grant income was received in the year, Government grant income received In the prior year- and specifically that received under the Coronavlrus lob Retentlon Scheme- is reported under the heading Other Income and separately identified In the notes to the ac¢otJnts. Such income has been recognised under the accrual model whereby grant income 15 recognised in the period in which the expense to which it relates was incurred. Ex endlture Expendlture is accrued as soon asthe liability is ¢onsSdered probable, discounted to present value for longer term liabilities. Expenditure is allocated to expense headings either on a direct cost basis or apportioned according to time spent. Irrecoverable VAT is included in the Statement of Financial Activitie5 Wlth the expenditure to which it re5ate5. Governance costs are those costs incurred in the Safeguarding of the School's assets associated with constitutional and statutory requirements. Investments Investments are shown at their fair values at the year end. Realised and unreali5ed gains and Ios5e5 on investments are accounted for through unrestricte(J or restricted funds as appropriate and are accounted for in the SOFA. 27 Tan ible Flxed Assets Expendlture on indivldual fixtures, flttlng5 and equipment, motor vehicles, grounds and malntenahce equipment and IT that are over £5,000 and capital in nature are capitalised. together with any spending of a capital nature relatlng to building5. Certain artefacts owned by the School are considered to be inalienable. It would be both dlfflcult and costly to attribute a cost or valuatlon to these 3$5ets. IN the event of future acqui51tions of inalienable assets, such assets would be capitalised. Any proceeds on the disposal of such assets would be accounted for through the appropriate fund in the SOFA. Herlta e Assets The School holds the Town Wall lor Garden W3111 that at one time divided the School's property from the neighbDurin8 Duke of Somerset'5 House and is also the old boundary between the Stoke and Christchurch Wards of Guildford. From time to time members of the public are permilled access to view the wall along with the Qld 8ullding and other items of historical interest that are held and used primarlly for educational purptsses. The WBII is maintained as part of the School's general care of its buildings, but also havin6 regard to its commitment to the local cornmunlty to care for a historical property. The Governors do not regard il practicable to obtaln a valuation of the Wall and, accordingly, no value is ascribed to it. DÉ reclatlon Depreciation is provided on all tangible fixed assets, other than freehold land, at rates calculated lo wrSte off the cost of each asset, le55 ally estimated residual value based on current market prices. evenly over its experted useful life. New capital developments are depreciated only when work has been completed and they are brought into use. The depreclatlon rates for the princlpal categorie5 are-. Freehold Buildings Furniture & Fitt5ng5 Computer Equipment Photocopiers Motor Vehicles PlayinE Field Equipment Le35ehold Propertv Leasehold Improvements Major Refurb5shment 2% per annum on a slraight-line basis IS% per arinum on a straight-line basis 25% per annum on a straight-line basis 20% per annum on a stréight-line basis 20% per annum on a straight line basis 12,50A per ènnum on a straight-line basls over the length of lease over the length of lease 4trA per annum on a 51ralght-Ilne basls Stock Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. eratin Leases The annu81 rental for operatlng leases 15 charged to the Statement of Flnancial Actlvities on a stral8ht.llne basls over the lease term, even if the payments are not made on such a basis. Benefits received and receivable as an Incentlve to s18n an operatlng lease are slmllarly spread on a straight-15ne basls over the lease term. Flnance Leases Assets held under finance leases are capitalised at their fair value and depreciated over their estimated useful economic lives. Future obliBations under finance leases are included in creditors, net of finance charges. Payments are apportioned between the finance element. which is charged to the Statement of Financial Activities as interest, and the capital element, which reduces the outstanding obligations. 28 Pensions and Post RÈtlremÈnt Beneflt Schemes 81 Oeflned Beneflt Scheme5 The School contrlbutes to the Teachers, Pension Scherne, which Is a defined beneflt scheme, at rates set bv the Governrnent Actuary. The Scheme is a deflned contribution 'Multi-Employer' scheme, and it is not possible to identify the assets and liabilities of the Scheme which are attributable to the School. In accordance wlth FRS 102, the Scheme 15 therefore accoLJnted for as a defined contribution scheme. Contributions to the Scheme are charged to the SOFA as they become payable in accordancè wlth the rules of the Scheme. The School also contributed to the 5urrey County Council Superannuation Fund for I month of the year. This is a deflned benefit scheme for support staff, arld Is closed to new entrants from the School. Wlth effect from 31, August 2021, as a consequence of dwindling employee membership, the School withdrew from th15 scheme. The School has fully adopted FRS 102 and, in accordance with this the following element5 zre charged to the SOFA: The service costs of penslon provision relating to the year, together with the cost of any benefits relating to past service. The net finance cost represented by a charee equal to the increase in the present value of the Scheme liabilities and a credit equivalent to the long term expected return on assets. The actuarlal gaSn or loss on the Scheme assets and liabilities. The dlfference between the market value of assets of the Scheme and the present value of accrued pension liabilities is shown a5 a Ilability on the Balance Sheet. Investments in funds are valued at bld prlce quoted by the investment manager at the Balance Sheet dates. The Closing liabillty of the School Sn respert of the Surrey County Council Superannuztion Fund is included in creditor balantes at year end. bl Defined Contrlbution Schemes The pension cost charged to the SOFA represents the contributlons payable by the School under the rules of the Scheme. Advanced Fee5 The School has accepted advance fee lump sum payments in respect of certain pupils and in return has undertaken to discharge defined amounts of the fees chargeable in respect of those pupils subsequent to 31. july 2022. In the event of a pupil's wlthdrawal from the School before all the agreed amounts have been credlted, the School has agreed to return the relevant unspent portlon of the capltal payment without addition of Interest or to continue to hold the remaining capital payment for payment of fees to a new educational establishment where appropriate. The School's liability in respect of advance fe@s has been brought Into these accoLJnts as the liability which would arise if all the pupi15 covered by Such arrangements completed the full-term period of the contract entered Snto. De osits The School receives a deposit from parents upon accept2nce of a placÈ for their son. The School refunds the deposit, le55 any appropriate deductions, after the pupil leave5 the School. Under FRS 102 this year all deposits are considered refundable within 12 months of the balance sheet date, under the terms of the contract and are classified within amounts due within one year. Flnancial Instruments Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at amortised value with the exception of Investments which are held at fair value. Financial assets held at amortised cost comprise cash at bank and in hand, together with trade and other debtors. A provision is made where the recovery of debts is in doubl. Cash at bank and in hand is defined as all cash held in instant access bank èccounts and used as working capital. Financial liabilities held at amortised cost comprise all creditors except social securitv and other taxes and provisions. Assets and liabilitie5 held in foreign currency are translated to G8P at the balance sheet date at an appropriate year end exchange rate. Taxation As a reglstered charity The Group is generally exempt from Corporation Tax but not from Value Added Tax IVATI. Irrecoverable VAT Is Included with the cost of those items to which 51 relates. 30 ThE 1505 Group YÈ4f enièdiijyly zo22 1022 2r>ii 2.
