## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINERS REPORT**
I report on the accounts of Friends of Beacon Hill School for the year ended 31 August 2024, which comprises the statement of financial activities, balance sheet and related notes.
## Respectve responsibilites of Commitee and Examiner
The committee is responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The committee consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the charities Act 2011 and that an independent examination is needed.
## It is my responsibility to:
- Examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act
- Follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act
- and to state whether, particular matters have come to my attention
## Basis of independent examiners report
I report in respect of my examination of the Trust’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination, I have followed the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair view’ and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
## Independent examiner's statement
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect: accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Act or the accounts do not accord with the accounting records
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

I report in respect of my examination of the Trusys accounts carried out under section 145 of the
2011 Art and in carrying out my examination, I have followed the applicable Directions given by the
Charity Commission under settion 145(51{b) of the Act. The procedures undertaken do not provide
all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently no opinion is given as to
whether the accounts present a 'true and falr view, and the report is Ilmlted to those matters set
out in the statement below.
