THE ROYAL DRAWING SCHOOL AUDIT REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2024 In preparing the financial statements. the trustees are responsible for assessing the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing. as applicable. matters related to goingconcern and usingthe goingconcern basis ofaccounting unless Ihe trustees either intend to liquidate th8 charitable company or to cease operations. or have no realistic 8ltern£tive but to do so. Auditor's responslbillties for the audit of the financial statements Our objectives 8re to obtain reasonable 8ssurance about whether the tinancial statements asawhole 8refreefrom material misstatement.whetherduetofraud orerror. and to issue an auditor's reportthatincludes ouropinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not 8 guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAS {UKI will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from f raud or error and are ¢onsidered material if. individually or in the aggregate. they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis ofthese financial statements. Irregularities, including fraud. are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above. to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities. including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities. including fraud is detailed below: Based on our understanding of the charitable company and the environment in which it operates. we identrfied that the Principal risks of non-compliance with laws and regulations related to Compani85 Act 2006 and charit.ies Act 2011 and we considered the extent to which non-compliance might have a material effect on the financial statements. We also considered those laws and regulations that have a direct impact on the preparation of the financial statements. We evaluated management'sincentives andopportunitiestorfraudulent manipulation of the financial statements (including the risk of override of controls). Audit procedures performed by the engagement team included: Inspecting correspondence with regulators and tax authorities; Discussions with management including consideration of known or suspected instances of non-compliance with laws and r8gulation and fraud: Evaluating management's controls designed to prevent and detect irregularities: Reviewing minutes of meetings oftrustees,. Identifying and testing journals. in particular Journal entries posted unusu81 descriptions- and Challenging assurnptions and judgements made by management in their accounting estimates 18
THE ROYAL DRAWING SCHOOL AUDIT REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2024 Because of the inherent limitatlons of an audlt, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statement5 or non-compliance with re8ulation. This risk increases the rn0 that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements. a5 we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error. as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation.

This description forms p8rt of our audilor's report.
