-
e to sustain and nurture the Salesian and Catholic ethos of the College; * to maintain the College roll;

The annual Service of Readings and Carols is much appreciated by parents and friends. Each year group makesa full day's retreat, on site or at the local parish church. There is a weekly optional Mass for staff and a Mass for each year group during the course of the year. Assemblies are held weekly for the entire College and occasionally for year groups in the Chapel. Prayers are said daily in each form. Year 12 students take part in the HCPT pilgrimage to Lourdes in Easter week. Other students are involved in the CAFOD leadership scheme, the visit to Zambia to work with very needy young people and fund raising for various charities including the Sean Devereux Children's Fund. Close links are usually maintained with other Salesian Schools, both in this country and internationally, through sporting events and exchange visits, with Don Bosco’s approach of reason, religion and loving kindness remaining at the heart of all that we do.
-
e The College roll continued to be maintained at satisfactory levels.
-
e Our academic excellence remained strong with good results at both A Level and GCSE. The recruitment and retention of high quality teaching staff remains a principal objective and they are encouraged to develop their skills with a number pursuing further qualifications.

d. Academic Standards and Performance
The College continued to welcome students from diverse academic backgrounds, including those with special educational needs, provided they met the usual entry requirements. The academic profile ranges from above average to excellent at entry into Year 7.
After two successive years of disruption to public examinations, we were very pleased to return to some degree of normality in 2022. Our students bucked the national trend for independent schools by continuing to see results make a year-on-year improvement at GCSE. We regard this as a strong endorsement of the rigour which we applied to the grading over the previous two summers.
Once again, the College exam results were excellent in a number of ways. At A Level, the College celebrated record results with a 100% pass rate. Students achieved 75.7% A-B grades and over 90% A-C for the seventh consecutive year, with over 47.3% of all grades being A*/A. 55% of the Year 13 cohort attained at least grades ABB thus accessing the most sought-after university places.
At GCSE, the College also enjoyed a record year with the proportion of grades in the 9-7 range (61.4%). Our students attained 98.7% of grades In the range 9-4. In Maths 99% of students attained grades 9-4 with 58% of students attaining at least grade 7. All students gained at least grade 4 in English. Religious Studies was, as always, taken by all 108 students and 99% attained at least grade 4 with an excellent 67.3% in the 9-7 range.
The College is proud of the achievements of its students and the dedication and adaptability shown by the staff in this regard.

College sport largely returned to normality in the year and College teams have won 30 trophies at local, district, county, regional and national level. Participation in sport remains high and 71% of Year 7 pupils were awarded sports colours by Ashley McKenzie, a Great Britain Judo Olympian, at a packed out Sports Awards in July.
A packed Saturday programme of rugby, football and cricket provided students with an enriching, enjoyable and rewarding time out of the classroom.
The Lisbon football tour in February with 65 students and 7 staff beat Storm Eunice by minutes to be the final plane to take off from London Heathrow. This was the first overseas College tour since the COVID-19 lock down of March 2020.
The unbeaten Year 7 football team enjoyed particular success winning the treble (District League, District Cup and Hampshire Schools County Cup). This is the second time in the last 4 years that the College Year 7 team has achleved this incredible feat, with one pupil breaking all goal records in Year 7 with 58 goals from 18 games. Furthermore, Year 7 won the District League and District Cup in basketball in a successful season for all basketball feams at the College with 6 league or cup titles secured amongst the 5 teams.
The junior relay swimming team also enjoyed success winning bronze in the English Schools Swimming Association National Relay at the Olympic Pool in London. The cross-country squads also won 5 titles at national (independent schools), district and county levels. At the Inter Salesian Athletics Championships held in Liverpool, the boys won all year group competitions and the overall event for the 9th year in a row. There were many more outstanding achievements Including the Year 10 tennis squad winning the regional AEGON tennis title and members of the Year 9 football squad being part of the district team who won the national district association final v Bamsiey at the home of Stoke City Football Club for the second year in a row. Enrichment activities at the College on a Wednesday afternoon for the Sixth Form offer a chance for a break away from the classroom with the Netball squad enjoying a full season, winning the regional College Super 8 title.

At the end of the Summer term, a group of Sixth Form students and staff, travelled to Zambia as part of the SHARE (Salesian Hearts Advocating the Relief of poverty by Education) Project. This annual event has proved popular with Sixth Form students valuing the opportunity to represent the College on this special trip. The students and staff worked with vulnerable young women in the City of Joy in Mazabuka run by the Salesian Sisters, and their activities included assisting in the classroom, supporting the girls with homework, helping at the Oratory for children from the local community and renovating one of the girls’ houses. They also met with scholarship students who are funded by the SHARE charity. In addition, our students assisted Mrs Mweete, a good friend of the College, who runs a Porridge Club, a school-sponsored nutrition programme feeding up to 700 vulnerable children for which the College continues to raise funds.
The Music Department in addition to its teaching commitments continued to provide a full programme of extracurricular activities including several Choirs, the Orchestra, a guitar group and the Jazz Band, together with groups for brass instruments.

h. Public Benefit and the Wider Community
The Governors believe they have complied with their duty in Section 4 of the Charities Act 2011 with respect to the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit. The College is committed to ensuring that in meeting its main aims and its charitable objectives, public benefit and links to the wider community are maintained and further developed. Amongst the several ways in which Salesian College contributes to public benefit, three important aspects are:
1) its community links and charity work for those In need locally, nationally and internationally; 2) its provision of facilities, usually without charge, for use by the local community; and 3) its provision of bursaries to children where their parents are unable to afford the full fees.
These elements are important to the educational work of the College and to its religious purpose as a Catholic school.
A major feature of a Salesian education is the caring ethos and spirit of service to others with the College taking an active role in the annual pilgrimage to Lourdes, where students and staff work as volunteer assistants and helpers in the care of disabled children.

|. Charlty fundraising
The students, parents and staff of Salesian College have made the most of the charitable opportunities in the last academic year, raising over £33,000.
Several events were spearheaded by students, including a host of events organised by one student who raised funds for many different charities, including Great Ormond Street Hospital, Osetovision and the Salestans of Don Bosco in Ukraine. He organised football tournaments, tuck shops, selling glow items at the Y7 and Y8 Disco, amongst other things, and these alone contributed to over £1,000 of this year’s total and Inspired many other students to get involved in running charity events.
Another student organised a whole school Mufti Day that was yellow and green themed to match the colours of the St John’s Ambulance team to whom the £1,054 proceeds of the day were dedicated. He also, alongside another student managed a team who hand-made yellow and blue badges to support the Ukraine appeal; this enterprise raised just under £500.
Supporting the Salesians of Don Bosco in Ukraine was understandably a real focus the past academic year. Events to raise money included Mufti Days, car washes, Sponge the Teacher, bake sales, tuck shops and a Splat the Rat game, amongst some other great ideas. The final amount donated to the Salesians in Ukraine was an amazing £5,036.
Another focus for the College was ralsing money for Edulife, a charity which sponsors Zambian teenagers through school. This has been a particular focus the Year 7 students this year, with over £1,000 being raised via various fun and creative activities like Lucky Lollies and fun runs. Alongside efforts to support Edulife, a Year 7 student, also ran a sweet tombola for the Get George Home campaign, to help a young boy suffering from severe brain damage. £179 was raised for George and his family.
Annual events such as the Sixth Form Sleep Out for the local homeless charity, Step by Step, raised a fantastic £3,568, our festive Christmas Jumper Day raised £937 which was split with Children in Need and £3,707 was raised for Mrs Mweete’s Porridge Club. The annual Year 7 ‘Run for Sean’ raised £3,861 for Sean Devereux’s Children Fund and £2,745 was raised for Air Ambulance this year through a sponsored walk.
Alongside financial support to these brilliant charities, the Salesian community provided a collection of food items for the Community Cupboard, which is part of The Vine Centre in Aldershot. A very generous donation from a father of a Year 9 student meant that the College was also able to contribute £2,000 to help The Vine Centre continue their invaluable work. Blankets were collected for another local charity, The Hope Hub, in Camberley and a lucky dip for the charity Crisis was run to help with their Christmas fund supporting homeless people during the festive season, raising £60.
An excellent effort from all who participated with some fantastic initiatives in pipeline for next year.

Financlal Overview
a. Introduction
Total incoming resources for the year totalled £9,032,987 (2021 - £8,251,128) whilst resources expended amounted to £8,098,138 (2021 - £7,328,557) giving rise to net incoming resources of £852,977 (2021 - £1,102,238) and increasing total funds to £7,961,626 (2021- £7,109,399).
b. Financial position and reserves policy
The balance sheet shows total funds of £7,961,626 (2021 - £7,109,399).
Included in total funds is an amount of £33,759 (2021 - £34,509) which is restricted. These monies have either been raised for, and their use restricted to, specific purposes or they comprise donations subject to imposed conditions. Full details of these restricted funds can be found in Note 16 to the accounts.
Unrestricted funds of the College at 31 August 2022 were £7,927,867 (2022 - £7,074,890).
The College negotiated a business loan with Lloyds Bank PLC of £1.25 million to help finance the investments made in the construction of additional classrooms and the 3G pitch. The loan, drawn down on 15 May 2017, is repayable over a period of five years at a fixed rate of interest of 3.1%. The loan was fully repaid by 31 August 2022.
The Govenors have carefully considered an appropriate target level for the Collage’s free reserves, albeit they acknowledge that the need to continue to invest significantly in the College's facilities may mean that any target is a long term aim. Having regards to the likelihood of financial risks and mitigating factors, the Governors consider the long term target level of free reserves for the College should be approximately 6 to 8 weeks expenditure. The level of free reserves as at 31 August 2022 stands at £3,180,284 (2021 - £2,211,251). For this purpose, free reserves have been defined as total unrestricted reserves excluding an amount equal to operational tangible fixed assets. Overall, the Governors consider the financial affairs of the College to be satisfactory.

The College has established a designated reserve as at 31 August 2022 of £875,000 (2021 - £850,000) of which £800,000 has been invested in an investment portfolio which will be referred to as the "Investable Assets" for the purpose of the Governor's Report. These Investable Assets provide a key means of providing the resources needed to further the College's mission and of meeting the College's financial responsibilities and needs. The College defines Investable Assets as being the amount avallable for investment in the investment markets, including the Money Market. The definition of Investable Assets includes cash held on deposit but excludes the cash required for the day-to-day operations of the College.
The Collage’s investment portfolio is managed by Rathbone Investment Management Limited. They have delegated authority to invest as they deem appropriate within the charity's stated policy guidelines and apply social, ethical and environmental priorities to the portfolio and screen out sectors and companies that are considered unethical.
The objective of the investment is to maximise the returns of the Investable Assets while maintaining a well diversified portfolio taking into consideration ethical investing.
Factors that could affect the performance or position of the College's investments will be a down turn in the global economic conditions, interest rates or technological developments. To address the risks of investing the Collage investments are made into a diversified balanced portfolio across multiple asset classes.
The value of the fixed asset investment continue to be impacted by market events. However, the valuation at the year end remains above the original amount invested. At the year end, the fixed asset valuation was £941,990 (2021 - £1,002,444),

Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Salesian College Famborough Limited (the ‘charitable company’) for the year ended 31 August 2022 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, the Statement of Cash Flows and the related notes, including a summary of 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' (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
In our opinion the financial statements:
-
e give a true and fair view of the state of the charitable company's affairs as at 31 August 2022 and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure for the year then ended;
-
° have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and

Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with Intemational Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors’ responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charitable company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the United Kingdom, including the Financia! Reporting Council's Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibllities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Conclusions relating to golng concern
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the Governors’ 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 events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charitable company’s ability to continue as a going concer for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

We have nothing to report in this regard.
Opinion on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006

-
° the information given in the Govemors’ Report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements.

Responsibilities of Governors

In preparing the financial statements, the Governors are responsible for assessing the charitable company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concem and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Governors either intend to liquidate the charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF SALESIAN COLLEGE FARNBOROUGH LIMITED (CONTINUED)
Auditors’ responsibllitles for the audit of the financial 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 Auditors’ 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 (UK) 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 reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these 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:
-
e Assessing the susceptibility of the Charitable Company's financial statement to material misstatement, including obtaining an understanding of how fraud might occur by enquiring of management and those charged with governance as to actual and potential litigation and claims;
-
e Identifying and assessing the risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations by identifying the laws and regulations applicable to the Charitable Company through discussions with management and reviewing inspection reporis to ensure that no breaches have occurred that would have a reputational, operational or financial impact on the Charitable Company;
-
e Reviewing financial statement disclosures and testing to supporting documentation to assess compliance with applicable laws and regulations, as well as reviewing minutes of meetings of those charged with governance;
-
e Performing audit work over the risk of management override controls, including testing of journal entries and other adjustments for appropriateness, evaluating the business rationale of significant transactions outside the normal course of business and performing analytical procedures to identify any significant unusual or unexpected transactions or relationships; and
-
e Reviewing and challenging assumptions and judgements made by management for bias in their accounting estimates, specifically those relating to revenue recognition, bad debt provision, depreciation and deposits and school fees received in advance.
Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likety 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.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Auditors' Report.

-
Accounting pollicles
-
2.1 Basls of preparation of financial statements
The financial statements have been prepared using the historic cost convention except that as disclosed in the accounting policies certain items are shown at fair value.
The financial statements are presented in sterling, which is the functional currency of the Charitable Company rounded to the nearest £.
2.2 Statement of compliance
These financial statements were prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland’ and the Charities SORP (FRS102). There has been no material departures from the standard.
Salesian College Farnborough Limited meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated In the relevant accounting policy notes.
2.3 Going concern
Having reviewed the funding facilities available to the College together with the expected ongoing demand for places and the College's future projected cash flows, the Govemors have a reasonable expectation that the College has adequate resources to continue its activities for the foreseeable future, meet its liabilities as they fall due and consider that there are no material uncertainties over the College's financial! viability. Accordingly, they also continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements as outlined in the Governors' responsibilities statement on page 6.
2.4 School fees and others charges
School fees and other charges represent gross fees together with amounts charged for ancillary services including lunches, transport and other activities after deducting bursaries, scholarships and other allowances.
Other income represents income from registration fees, non-returnable deposits in respect of places not taken up and other sundry income.
All school fees and other charges are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SoFA) when the College has entitlement to the income, when the amount can be measured reliably and when it is probably that the income will be received.
A deposit from each pupil is taken upon Joining the College, which 50% is refundable when the pupil starts the first term and 50% when the pupil leaves the school. These deposits are included within creditors, deposits and school fees in advance.

SALESIAN COLLEGE FARNBOROUGH LIMITED (A Company Limited by Guarantee)
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2022
2. Accounting policies (continued)
2.5 Investment Income
Interest on bank balances and fixed interest securities Is accounted for in the period in which the interest is earned. Dividend income is accounted for when the right to receive payment has been established.
2.6 Donations and other voluntary income
Voluntary income Is accounted for as and when entitlement arises, the amount can be reliably quantified and the economic benefit to the College is considered probable. Voluntary income for the College’s general purposes is accounted for as unrestricted and is credited to the General Reserve. Where through the terms of an appeal or from the donor there is a trust law restriction on the use of any voluntary income, the income is credited to the relevant restricted funds.
2.7 Government grants
Grants are accounted under the accruals model as permitted by FRS 102. Grants of a revenue nature are recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities in the same period as the related expenditure.
2.8 Expenditure
All expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to that expenditure, it is probable settlement is required and the amount can be measured reliably. All costs are allocated to the applicable expenditure heading that aggregate similar costs to that category. Expenditure is included in the statement of financial activities when incurred and includes any irrecoverable VAT. All costs incurred by the College are deemed to have been incurred in the delivery of its principal activity, which is education, and are thus included under charitable activities. Governance costs include expenditure on compliance with constitutional and legal requirements including audit fees and any governor support.
2.9 Pensions
Retirement benefits to employees of the College are provided through two pension schemes, one defined benefit and one defined contribution. The pension costs charged in the Statement of Financial Activities are determined as follows:
The Teachers Penslon Scheme - This scheme is a multi-employer scheme. It is not possible to identify the College's share of the underlying assets and liabilities of the Teachers Pension Scheme on a consistent and reasonable basis and therefore, as required by FRS 102, the scheme is accounted for as if it were a defined contribution scheme. Accordingly, the College's contributions, which are in accordance with the recommendation of the Government Actuary, are charged in the period in which the salaries to which they relate are payable.
Personal pension plan - This is a defined contribution plan for which employers pension costs are charged in the period in which the salaries to which they relate are payable.
2.10 Operating leases
Rentals payable under operating leases are charged on a stralght-line basis over the lease term. Benefits received and receivable as an incentive to sign an operating lease are similarly spread on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2022
2. Accounting policies (continued)
2.11 Taxation
The Charitable Company is able to take advantage of the tax exemptions available to charities from taxation in respect of income and capital gains received (within categories covered by Sections 478 to 488 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992) to the extent that such income and gains are applied to exclusively charitable purposes. Accordingly no provision for taxation has been included in the financial statements.
2.12 Fund accounting
The Charitable Company's funds are accounted for as unrestricted or restricted income in accordance with the terms of trust imposed by the donors or any appeal to which they may have responded. Unrestricted income belongs to the Charitable Company's corporate reserves, spendable at the discretion of the Governors either to further the Charitable Company's objectives or to benefit the Charitable Company itself. Where the Governors decide to set aside any part of these funds to be used in future for some specific purpose, this is accounted for by transfer to the appropriate designated fund.
Restricted funds comprise gifts, legacies, grants or income from certain endowments where there is no capital retention obligation or power but only a trust law restriction to some specific purpose intended by the donor.
2.13 Tangible fixed assets and depreciation
Expenditure on the acquisition, construction or enhancement of land and buildings together with expenditure on vehicles, furniture, machinery, ICT infrastructure and other equipment costing more than £500 is capitalised and carried in the balance sheet at historical cost.
Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of tangible fixed assets jess their residual value over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method.
Depreciation is provided on the following bases:
Long-term leasehold property - 5-40 years Plant and machinery - 3-20 years Motor vehicles - 4 years
2.14 Investments
Listed investments are a form of financial instrument and are Initially recognised at their transaction cost and subsequently measured at fair value at the Balance Sheet date, unless the value cannot be measured reliably in which case it is measured at cost less Impairment.
Investment gains and losses, whether realised or unrealised, are combined and presented as net (losses)/gains on investments’ in the Statement of Financial Activities.
2.15 Debtors
Debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any discount offered, less any provisions for non-recoverability. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any discounts due.
Page 26
SALESIAN COLLEGE FARNBOROUGH LIMITED (A Company Limited by Guarantee)
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2022
2. Accounting policies (contlnued)
2.16 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and call deposits, and other short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value.
2.17 Creditors and provisions
Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to setile the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any discounts due.
2.18 Financlal Instruments
The Charitable Company only enters into basic financial instrument transactions that result in the recognition of financial assets and liabilities like trade and other debtors and creditors, loans from banks and other third parties, loans to related parties and Investments in non-puttable ordinary shares.
Debt Instruments (other than those wholly repayable or recelvable within one year), including loans and other accounts receivable and payable, are initially measured at present value of the future cash flows and subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Debt instruments that are payable or receivable within one year, typically trade debtors and creditors, are measured, Initially and subsequently, at the undiscounted amount of the cash or other consideration expected to be paid or received. However, if the arrangements of a short-term instrument constitute a financing transaction, like the payment of a trade debt deferred beyond normal business terms or financed at a rate of interest that is not a market rate or in the case of an out-right short-term loan not at market rate, the financial asset or liability is measured, Initially, at the present value of the future cash flow discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument and subsequently at amortised cost. Financial assets that are measured at cost and amortised cost are assessed at the end of each reporting period for objective evidence of impairment. If objective evidence of impairment is found, an impairment loss is recognised in the Statement of financial activities.
For financial assets measured at cost less impairment, the impairment loss Is measured as the difference between an asset's carrying amount and best estimate of the recoverable amount.
Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the Balance sheet when there is an enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there Is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
2.19 Finance leases and hire purchase
Assets obtained under hire purchase contracts and finance leases are capitalised as tangible fixed assets. Assets acquired by finance lease are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and their useful lives. Assets acquired by hire purchase are depreciated over their useful lives. Finance leases are those where substantially all of the benefits and risks of ownership are assumed by the Charitable Company. Obligations under such agreements are included in creditors, net of the finance charge allocated to future periods. The finance element of the rental payment is charged to the Statement of Financial Activities so as to produce a constant periodic rate of charge on the net obligation outstanding in each period.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2022
3. Critical accounting estimates and areas of judgement
In the application of the accounting policies, the Governors are required to make Judgements, estimates, and assumptions about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and underlying assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affected current and future periods.
In the view of the Governors, no assumptions concerning the future or estimation uncertainty affecting assets or liabilities at the balance sheet date are likely to result in a material adjustment to their carrying amounts in the next financial year.
There were no recognised critical accounting estimates or areas of judgements.
