The College is now a company limited by guarantee, as defined by the Companies Act 2006. The company is registered in England and Wales and is also registered as a charlty- The charity is controlled by its governing documents, the Articles of Association. Following review of governance, the Articles were revised and adopted on 30 April 2015 following an extraordinary general meeting of the members of the company.

Five of those are nominated by the organisations specified in the Articles of Association. The College Principal is an ex-officlo appointment. In addition, there may be up to 11 co-opted trustees to supplement the skills and experience of the College Council. Co-opted trustee5 shall be appointed to the Board by resolution of the Board. The trustees may from time to time at their discretion determine any criteria for appointment as a co-opted trustee. Nominated or co-opted trustees are appointed for three years and shall be eligible for re-election by the trustees ft)r two further terms of three years. The Treasurer and Company Secretary are appointed by the trustees at a Council Meeting and these appointmerkts are reviewed anntjally. Induction and Trainlng of Trustees The induction of a new trustee is aimed at ensuring they understand the role of the Charity and the way in which their skills and knowledEe are a key parl of ensuring their resporbsibilities and accountabilities are fairly discharged in accordance with charity and company law and within the spirit of the Bapt15t movement of which the College is a vital part. The College Council as managing trustees receive regular trustee training. The College has adopted the Charity Governance Code for smaller charitie5 and follows the Code principles and recommended practice for good governance. To ensure the governing body remains effective, the trustees have been implementinE the recommendations of an external review to governance carried out in 2019-2020. Organisational Structure The day to day management of the Charity is overseen by the College Principal and the College Team. They meet regularly to plan and review activities. Regular meetings are held by the Principal with the Chairman of the College Council and with the Treasurer. The College Council meet5 four times a year. During the year ending June 2022, the trustees held hybrid meetings with some attending in person and others joining remotely via video conference call.
Public Benefit The Trustees confirm they have complied with the duty in Section 17151 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to the Charity Commi55ion's general guidance on public benefit in exercising their powers and duties. They have referred to this guidance when reviewine the College's aim5 and objectives and in planning its future activities. Arrangements for Setting Pay and Remuneration The College has a pay policy which aligrb5 Itself with the Baptist Union of Great Britain. In 2016 3 benchmarking exercise was undertaken linking pay for all staff, including senior staff to the Baptist Union Home Mission Stipend. Annual increases in pay follow the cost of living increases set by BUGB. Starting May 2022, the College Council agreed to pay staff an extra 5% uplift payment for one year, in addition to the annual increase, to better reflect the current cost of living. Relationships between the Charity and Related Parties The College is part of the wider Baptist family in England and Wales and S a member of the Baptist Union of Great Britain IBUGBI. The College receives bursary grants from BUGB'S Student Training Income Designated Fund See Note 17. During the year the Treasurer was a director of the Baptist Insurance Company plc., Andy Hughes was the Ministries Team Leader of BUGB and Shayla Waugh was a member of the Bapt15ts Together Council. Regulatory Compliance and Overslght The College is regulated by the Office for Students lots) and subject to quality inspections by Quality Assurance Agency for Higher Education IQAAI and reporting to Higher Education Stat15tics Agency IHESAI. The College Manager is responsible for ensuring compliance with regulatory conditions and reports to the Education Committee on these matter5. As a result of being a registered higher education provider students can apply for student loans, of which the College received £51,000 for undergraduates, tuition fee5 directly from the Student Loan Company. The College is exempt from the Ofs requirement to have an Access and Participation Investment Plan. c. Objectives and Activities Objects ofthe Charity The Articles of Association set out the principal object of the company.. To promote the religious education of persons (particularly but not exclusively those professing themselves to be Baptists) to enable them to exercise their gifts with greater usefulness in Christian ministry. Today the College articulates its aim in this way.. To share in the mission of God in the world through the formation of competent, passionate, spirit-filled and evan8elical people for different forms of Christian ministry. This aim is expressed in the College strategy document, and reflects the words of an eighteenth century College Principal, Caleb Evans. Activities Today we offer education and training in four different areas-. ministerial formation, childien, youth and family ministry, community learning and theological studies. The College offers a range of full and part-time, undergraduate and p05tgraduate courses, validated by the Durham University and the University of Aberdeen. Research and study centres in Anabaptist studies and the Bible and Violence have been based at the ColleEe during the year. Our Saturday course Equipping Missionary Disciples is designed for church members and those wishing to understand thelr faith better and so enhance their Christian discipleship. It is also accepted by Baptist Associations as a qualification towards recognition as lay preacher5 and pastors. We contlnue to work in partnership with PFS Exeter.
In setting our objectives and arranging our activities our Trustees have given careful consideration to the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit and in particular to its supplementary guidance on fee charging. Having regard to the public benefit guidance issued by the Charity Commission it is important to understand that central to our Christian beliefs and mission is our convictlon that faith gives meaning to people's lives and contributes to their well-being. It includes a vision for peace and harmony and encompasses morals, ethics and values which serve the community at every level. Both during their training and when they complete their courses, students contribute to the well-being of communities throughout the UK by their involvement in churches and Christian and secular projects. Although we have a scale of tuition fees, no one who has been accepted for Baptist ministerial training 15 denied admission to the College on the grounds of inability to pay. For the last financial year unpaid fees amounted to £24,200 although the College expects to receive most of these fees within 12 months. As the Financial Statements illustrate, student fees contribute 53% of the total income and 51% towards the total charitable expenditure. Grant Making Policy The Trustees apply the funds of the College at their discretion and in accordance with the charitable purposes and objectives of the charity. Each request or situation is considered on its own merits and grants awarded to students who meet certain criteria, reviewed periodically by the College. Achievements and Performance Our Students In the year under report, we had 29 students undertaking ministerial formation121 of whom were also studying for aca(Jemic qualification, 4 of whom were based at the Exeter hub), 6 students studying on Children, Youth and Family Courses, and 34 theology students at undergraduate and postgraduate level. We also supeNised the accreditation studies of 24 Newly Accredited Ministers on behalf of the Baptist Union of Great Britain. 11 people studied on our Equipping Missional Disciples course run from Bristol, and 6 people studied on our Disciple-makers course. Our Strategv The Trustees and senior staff continued to work to our strategic plan for 2019-2023, and we report the followin8 developments during 2021-22: Ministerial Formt7tion We continued to offer and develop initial and continuing formation for mlnisters wiihin Baptists Together, exploring new ways to do this to meet the needs of a changing context in church and world. We launched a hub for Ministerial Formation training in Exeter, with an initial cohort of 4 students. Feedback from the Exeter students on this year has been posilive, and we are excited to continue to develop the hub to seNe the South West region. The College is encouraged by growinE interest in ministerial formation from young adults who are considering internshlps. Our Disciple-makers programme is one key approach for helping such students discern their callinE for ministry. The college launched our 'Continuing Ministerial Development, offering in January 20211 providing ongoing learning opportunities for ministers, in partnership with 8aptists ToEether. Our CMD offering currently includes Reading Groups, Mentoring, Sabbaticals, a Chaplaincy module, and the Centre for the Study of Bible and Violence conferences. Children, Youth and Familles This year we have developed the tutorials for the CYF students to include 4-5 sessions on management. This means we now have 9 hours of material that can be delivered online, covering topics not included in academic modules. We have also written and delivered training on Trauma-lnformed Practice from a CYF ministry perspective, this was done in partnership with IBTS. We have been able to charge for thi5 traininE along with some chaplaincy/mentoring training that we are also delivering. We continue to build partnerships through the CYF Round Table.
Community Learning We have been in conversations to see how the relationship with the PFS Exeter team can be developed. We conlinue to promote the Equipping Missional Disciples course within the local Baptist Association, and continue to engage with Baptist Training Partnership. Theologlcolstudles The college has launched an Online MA pathwèy focussed on Anabaptist studies. It Is hoped that this online pathway will allow international students to Study these modules. The College t75 t7 whole This year we were able to attend Spring Harvest with a promotional stand in the marketplace, which we have Committed to do for 3 years. Our application forms have been amended to ask students 'where did you hear about us,, so after 3 years at Spring Harvest we will be able to analyse its effectivenes5 at increasing student recruitment. College meetings and committee5 have taken place in a hybrid online/in person model throughout the year and building repairs and maintenance have been ongoing.

We also thank all those who serve the college as Staff, officers, trustees, members of committees or in other ways as voluntary helpers. We particularly wish to thank those who have chaired College committees this year, Ruth Bottoms, Michael Peat, Malcolm Broad and Graham Lewis. Our thanks also go to all those churches, individuals and organisations that support us finèncially, and to those individuals who remembered the College in their wills. All thi5 Support Is a vital part of sustaining the life and work of the College. Individuals and Churches may express their support of us by making one-off or regular donations. Appropriate forms for individuals or Churches are available from the College. Serving the Wider Church In its principal work o* training and developing students to exercise their gifts in Christian ministry, the College is serving the wider church. Those leaving the College will be seNinB in different parts of the UK, and in many different contexts. The College serves in other ways too. Members of staff have continued to make contributions to Christian publications, have undertaken a heaV commitment to speaking at conferences, seminars, annual lectures and workshops as well as preaching engagements. Many committees are supported or chaiied by College staff and the work of the Baptist Union is supported in a wide variety of way5 through committee work or through specific input to key issues. e. Financial Review Financial results The 2021122 accounts reveal an overall operating loss before investment gains or losses of £19,797 which is slightly more than the £6,178 in 2021122. The operating loss was also significantly better than the budgeted deficit of £86,200 due mainly to increased income from an increase in student numbers and unanticipated grants and a bursary fund donation. The investment portfolio, with Brewin Dolphin, had a market value at the year-end of £2,333,191 compared with £2,616,435 in 2020121 reflecting the reduction in the markets since the start of 2022. The investment portfolio Is structured to provide a steady and pre-set income for up to five years ahead whilst the core objective over the long term is achieve return of at least 4Yo. Income solely from the portfolio was £124,114 equal to 4.74% of the opening valuation. Costs continued to be well controlled but increased to £614,064 compared with £511,106 in the previous year as the College recommenced its normal face-to-face activities after the lifting of Covid restrictions and con5lraints. Whilst student number5 have increased this year the major risk and challenge to the future viability of the College remains student numbers and the respective income they generate. Whilst the College is endeavouring to attract more students each year, the trustees have a strategy to increase its available reserves from the sale of most of its
non-income earning residential properties and invest the proceeds with Brewin Dolphin in an attempt to drive up investment income and close the deticit gap. In addition, the trustees continue to actively engage with other options to reduce what has become a structural deficit by reviewing its location current5y valued at E2,350,000- see Note 7. Going Concern The trustees remain confident that the charity is a going concern, because of its healthy reserves position to withstand future deficits should student numbers decline. As a consequence, the trustees have asserted that the statement regarding Accounting Convention on pase 19 remains unchanged. Pensions The College has over recent years been paying a deficit contribution to the Bapt15t Pension Defined Benelits Scheme IBPSI, as one of cl,350 employers in the Scheme. The BPS releases individual debt figures for each employer in the Scheme each month. The calculation is known as the 'Autom3ted Monthly Debt Estimate, IAMDEI. It's important to state the figures released are the estimated buy out figure for each employer, not the actual buy out figure which requires the Scheme's actuaries to formally calculate should any employer in the Scheme wish to buy out of the Scheme. The AMDE for the College as at the 30th June 2022 was £61,400 compared to £220,300 the year before. The Skjbstantial reduction has been brought about by Baptist denomination injecting £33.5m cash into the Scheme in December 2018 to reduce the deficit and reduce the length of the recovery plan to 10 years. FRS102 doe5 not permit U5 to recognise the £61,400 as a liability 35 the calculation is not based on an actual actuarial valuation. Instead, in accordance with the FRS102 required treatment of multi-employer schemes of this type, a liability has been recognised for the net present value of agreed deficit reduction payment5. This liability of £169,940 exceeds the AMDE and 15 anticipated that it will be eliminated in 2022123 following the pension fund being covered by an insurance policy that the Scheme trustees announced in August 2022. Reserves Policy The College has reviewed its reseryes policy having noted the latest available guidance from the Charity Commission. The reserves policy is to hold £1.2M in free reserves and has been assessed taking into account the future strategy of the College, the current structural budget delicit and rlsks associated with the ongoing College business. The unrealised105ses made on unrealised investment assets of £267,427 has pushed the reserves to slightly below the policy target of £1.2M with a shortfall of £94,092, but given this is based upon unreali5ed losses that may well reverse as world market5 Stabilise the trustees do not consider that specific action is required to address the sholtfall but rather continue to monitor the situation. The £1.2M is reserved for three main areas as shown in the table for'.- Risk Management Accommodation Strategy Property Income Strategy Reserves Policv Un-assigned free reserve Free Reserves 450,000 250,000 500,000 1,200,000 194,0921 1,105,908

Tangible Fixed Assets Free Reserve5 1,105,908 Statement of Internal Controls 5ncluding Risk Management The trustees have a duty to identify and review risks to which the charity is exposed and to ensure appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error. The Audit committee of the College has continued to function over the past 12 months to ensure that it adhere5 to its Terms of Reference. The committee has met on a number of occasion5 over the period in question and has continued to be there as review, audit and support function for the Finance Committee and the College as whole. The committee has been integral in offering guidance and support to the Finance committee when making Investment decisions and has challenged Iwhere necessary) the Investment Manager5 to ensure that the financial needs of the College continue to be met. The Charity maintains a risk register and the trustees review at least annually the major strategic, business and operational risks which the Charity faces. The Risk register of the College has been reviewed, amended, and updated las requiredl to ensure adhesion to the Terms and Conditions and also to ensure overall regulatory compliance of the College with all relevant bodies. The trustees have established systems and controls to mitigate against major risks to which the College is exposed. Any activity with a high residual risk is monitored and appropriate action implemented to bring within acceptable levels wherever possible. We have identified 4 headline risks and appropriate mitigation mea5ures'.
l. We fail to recruit students and train ministers for the Baptist churches- mitigation measure to review publicity, networking and consideration of new pathways. 2. We fail to be a registered higher educational institution - mitigation measure to increase resilience and decrease dependence on single member of staff coupled with ongoing reviews and audit. 3. We cease to be a financial going concern - mitigation measures to review donations and legacy strategy, strict cashflow monitoring and completion of buildings feasibility study. 4. We fail to comply with critical regijlatory. or legal duties- mitigation measure to review at least annually relevant policies and procedures. Internal Controls are set out in the College's Standing Financial Instructions and their Èffectiveness is reviewed annually. No incidents of control weaknesses or fraud were identified in the reporting period. Investment Policy The investment objective of the College is to aim for a balance between capital growth and income yield with the following targets'.- Portfolio Growth- to outperform the Brewin Dolphin Linked Benchmark by at least 1% per arinum. Income Yield- to achieve a minimum 4Yo income yield per annum. The College contlnues operate within the revised ethical investment guideline5155ued in 2013 by the Baptist Union of Great Britain. Brewin Dolphin, the appointed investment managers, operate under a discretionary management contract and their performance is regularly reviewed by the College Finance Committee and by the College Council. The investment portfolio is largely held in the Tyndale Furhd - Designated. Capital growth and income received is allocated to the Tyndale, Ron Toop, Anderson Pratten and Terrill Tercentenary funds in proportion to their share of the portfolio. The allocation for the Tyndale fund is available for and used in the General Fund of the charity. f.

The financial reportlng framework that ha5 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 (United KinEdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). This report is made solely to the Charity's members, 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 state to the Charity's members those matters we are required to state in them in an auditorfs 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 Charitws members as a bodv, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed. In our opinion, the financial statements-. give a true and fair view of the state of the Charity's affairs as at 30 June 2022 and of its income and eypenditure for the year then ended- have been properly prepared In accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice,. have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006. Basis for opinion We conducted out audit in accordance with international Standards in Auditing IUKI IISAS IUKII and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditorfs responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the Charity 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 respor5sibllities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained 15 suff icient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. Concluslons relating to going concern In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees, use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. B35ed on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charity's 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 responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant Sections of ihis report. Other information The trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the annual report other than the financial statements and out auditor's report thereon. Our opinion on the finarkcial 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 thereon. 12
In connection with our audit of the financial stalements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconslstent with the financial statement5 or our knowledEe obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material incon51Stencies or apparent material mlsstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. If based, on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material mi55tatement of this other information, we are required to report the fact. We have nothing to report in thi5 regard. Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006 In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the aiJdit-. the information gtven in the trustees, report (incorporating the strategic report and the directors, reportl for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial 5tatements,' and the trustees, report lincorporating the strategic report and the director5, report) have been prepared in accordance with applicable law requiremerbts. Matters on whlch we are required to report by exception We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Comparkies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if. in our opinion.. sufficient accounting records have not been kept; the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns,. certain disclosures of trustees, remuneration specified by law are not made,. or we have not obtained all the information and explanations necessary for the purposes of our audit. Responsibilitie5 of trustees As explained more fully in the trustees, responsibilities statement, the trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statement5 and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as they determine 15 necessary to enable the preparatlon of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the Chariws ability to continue as a goinE 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 Charity or to cease operation5, or have no re81istl alternative but to do so. Auditor's responslbilities for the audit of the financlal statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements 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. Reasonable 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 exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonaljly be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. 13
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 misstatement5 in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below.. rhe extent to whlch the audit wus considered capable of detecting irregularities includlngfraud Our approach to identifying and assessing the risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, was a5 follows.. the engagement partner ensured that the engagement team collectively had the appropriate competence, capabilities and skills to identify or recognise non-compliance with applicable laws and regulations; we identified the laws and regulations applicable to the Charity through discussions with directors and other management, and from our knowledge and experience of the sector- we focused on specific laws and regulations which we considered may have a direct material effect on the financial statements of the operations of the company, including the Companles Act 2006, taxation legislation and data protection, anti-bribery, employment, environmental and health and safety legislation: we assessed the extent of compliance with the laws and regulations identified above throu8h making enquiries of management and inspectinE legal correspondence,. and identified laws and regulations were communicated within the audit team regularly and the team remained alert to instances of non-compliance through the audit. We assessed the susceptihility of the charitable company's financial statements to material misstatement, including obtaining an understanding of how fraud might occur, by.. makinE enquiries of management as to where they considered there was susceptibility to fraud, their knowledEe of actual, suspected and alleged fraud; considering the internal controls in place to mitigate risks of fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations,. and understanding the design of the company's remuneration policies. To address the risk of fraud through management bias and override of controls, we.. performed analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships,. tested journal entries to identify unusual transactions,. 3sse55ed whether judgements and assumptions made in determining the accounting estimates set out in the accounting policies were indicative of potential bias; and investigated the rationale behind significant or unusual transactions. In response to the risk of irregularitie5 and non-compliance with law5 and reEulations, we designed procedures which included, but were not limited to- agreeing financial statement disclosures to underlyin8 supporting documentation. reading the minutes of meetings of those charged with governance; enquiring of management as to actual and potential litigation and claims,. and reviewing correspondence with HMRC, relevant regulators and the company's legal advisor5. There are inherent limitations in our audit procedures described above. The more removed that.laws and regulations are from financial transactions, the less likely it is that we would become aware of non-compliance. Auditing standards also limit the audit procedures required to identify non-compliance with laws and regulations to enquiry of the directors and other management and the inspection of regulatory and legal correspondence, if any. Material misstatements that arise dLJe to fraud can be harder to detect than those that arise from error as they may involve deliberate concealment or collusion. 14

Notes to the Financial Statements l.Accounting Convention The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the historical cost convention (except for investments which have been included at fair value and in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice.. Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland IFRS 1021 issued in October 2019 and the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland IFRS 1021 and the Companies Act 2006 and UK Generally Accepted Practice as it applies from l January 2019. The Charity is a Public 8enefit Entity. The Trustees consider there to be no material uncertainties affecting the ability of the charity to continue as a going concern considering the continued income the charity receives and the assets the charity holds. Income: All income is included on the Statement of Financial Activities when the charity is legally entitled to the income and the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracv. al Donations, legacies and grants receivable These are accounted for as soon as their amount and receipt are probable. For unsolicited donations this is when received. Legacy income will be applied for general purposes unless restricted for a particular purpose. bl Other income All other income is accounted for on an accruals basis. Expenditure: Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activit5es on a basis conslstent with the use of resources. al Grants and bursaries payable Grants and bursaries are an expense to the Statement of Financial Activities in the year they are awarded. bl Fundraising costs These costs are incurred In 5eekin8 voluntary contrihutioris through publicising the work of the College. They do not include an apportionment of salary or associated costs. cl Governance costs Governance costs are those costs associated with charity governance requirements and which relate to the general running of the organisation and are included within Support Costs. dl Support costs Support costs include direct office costs and staff costs associated with providing administration service5 to the College. el Staff Pensions The Colle8e is an employer participating in a pension scheme known as the BaptlSt Pension Scheme 1.the Scheme'l. The Scheme is a separate legal entity which is administered by the Pension Trustee (Baptist Pension Trust Limited). The Scheme is considered to be a multi-employer scheme as described in Section 28 19
of FRS102. This is because it 15 not possible to attribute the Scheme's assets and liabilities to specific employers and means that the Scheme is accounted for as if it were a defined contribution scheme - see also Note 6. The Principal and some members of the College staff are eligible to join the Scheme. Fixed Assets and Depreciation Property 15 initially recognised at cost and subsequently carried at valuation. To keep the carrying value of the property held by the Charity within a material amount of the market value, as required by the SORP, the Trustees have set a policy of revaluing the property every five years. No depreciation is charged on freehold properties because the Trustees consider the annual review of carrying values required by FRS102 will invariably increase each year. The expected useful economic life of these asset5 is believed to be in excess of fifty years and annual reviews for indicators of impairment are undertaken by the Trustees on these properties. The building known as Duncan House (the College) was revalued in 2020 at £2,350,000. The College policy is to revalue every five years and monitor and account for impairment in inteNening vears. The remaining residential property at 48 Great Brockeridge, Westbury-on-Trym, Bristol. BS9 3fL was professionally valued in June 2022 at £950,000 at estimated market value. Othey capital expenditure This is written off at the date of expenditure for items of value less than £1,000. Investments All quoted investments are stated at market value. Restrlcted and Endowment funds Restricted andlor endowment funds are accounted for in accordance with the particular terms of trust arising from the express or implied wishes of donors. In so far a5 these are intended to be binding on the Trustees. Where any such wishes are not intended to be legally binding, they are taken into account and recognised in appropriately designated funds. Unrestricted funds Unrestricted funds include designated funds where the trustees, at their discretion, have created a fund for a specific purpose. Current assets and Ilabilities Debtors are recognised when students are invoiced for their fees and reduce as and when payments and bursaries are made and exclude account5 in credit. Debtors also include prepaid expenditure or accrued income. Creditors are recognised for expenditure incurred but not yet paid and student fee accounts in credit. Cash is recognised at the date it IS Posted on the bank or credit card Statements or petty cash book. Foreign exchange Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rate of exchange ruling at the date of the transaction. Exchange differences arising in the ordinary course of business are included in income or expenditure. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the exchange rates ruling at the balance sheet date. 20

Pensions Since January 2012, pension provision has been made through the Defined Contribution (DCI Plan within the Scheme. In general, members pay 8% of their Pensionable Income and employers pay 6% of members, Pensionable Income into individuèl pension account5. In addition, the etnployer pays a further 4% of Pensionable Income lor 3Yo if the employer is in the segregated DC Section) to cover Death in Service Benefits, administration cost5, and an associated insurance policy which provides income protection for Scheme members in the event that they are unable to work due to long-term incapacity. This income protection policy has been insured by the Baptist Union of Great Britain with Aviva. Members of the Basic Section pay reduced contributions of 5Yo of Pensionable Income, and their employers also pay a total of 5%. Benefits in respect of service prior to l January 2012 are provided through the Defined Benefit IDBI Plan within the Scheme. The main benefits for pre-2012 service were a defined benefit pension of one eightieth of Final Minimum Pensionable Income for each year of Pensionable Service, together with additional pension in respect of premiums paid on Pensionable Income in excess of Minimum Pensionable Income. The Scheme, previously 23
known as the Baptist Ministers, Pension Fund, started in 1925, but was closed to future accrual of defined benefits on 31 December 2011. A formal valuation of the Defined Benefit IDBI Plan wa5 performed at 31 December 2019 by a professionallv qualified Actuary using the Projected Unit Method. The market value of the DB Plan assets at the valuation date was £298 million. The valuation of the DB Plan revealed a deficit of assets compared with the value of liabilities of £18 million (equivalent to a past service funding level of 94%). As a result of the valuation, in addition to the contributions to the DC Plan set out above, it was agreed that the standard rate of deficiency contributions from churches and other employers involved in the DB Plan will remain at previously agreed levels, increasing each year in line with increases in the Minimum Pensionable Income. The deficiency contributions are broadly based Dn 12% of Pensionable Income / Minimum Pensionable Income, reflecting each employer's contributions in March 2015. Some employers that were involved in the DB Plan for a short period pay lower contributions. The Trustee and the Council agreed a 50Yo reduction for all deficiency contributions payable between I july 2020 to 31 December 2020. In addition, the Baptist Union of Great Britain agreed to contribute a lump sum of £0.5m by 31 December 2020. The current Recovery Plan dated 30 September 2020 envisages deficiency contributions continuing until 30 June 2026. The key financial assumption5 underlying the valuation were as follows.. Type of assumption RPI price inflation assumption CPI price inflation assumption Minimum Pensionable Income increases ICPI plus 1.0% pal Assumed investmEnt returns Pre-retirement Post retirement Deferred pension increases Pre April 2009 Post April 2009 Pension increases %p.3. 3.20 2.70 3.20 2.95 1.70 3.20 2.50 2.70 As there are a large number of contributing employers participating in the Scheme, the College is unable to identify its share of the underlying assets and liabilities of the scheme. Accordingly, due to the nature of the Scheme, the profit and loss charge for the period represents the employer contributions payable. The pension contributions paid by the College are set out in the table below.

Recovery Plan In addition to the contributions to the DC Plan set out above, where a valuation of the DB Plan reveals a deficit the TrLJStee and the Council agree to a rate of deficiency contributions from churches and other employers involved in the DB Plan. Under the current Recovery Plan dated l July 2020, deficiency contributions are payable until 31 December 2028. These contributions are broadly based on the employer's membership at 31 December 2014 2nd increase annually in line with increases to Minimum Pensionable Income as defined in the Rules. However, the Trustee and the Council agreed a 50% reduction for all deficlency contributions payable between I july 2020 and 31 December 2020. Section 28.IIA of FRS 102 requires agreed deficit recovery payments to be reco8nised as a liability. On 29 July 2022 Baptists Pensions announced that they have signed an aEreement with the insurance company Just Group I"Just"I to secure DB Plan members, pension benefits and that deficiency contributlOn5 reduce to just £1 per month from August 2022,.
