Independent examiner’s report to the trustees of HAFS ACADEMY LIMITED

I report on the accounts of the company for the year ended 31 March 2024, which are set out on pages 6 to 10.

Respective responsibilities of Trustees and Independent Examiner

The trustees and the directors of HAFS ACADEMY LIMITED are responsible for the preparation of the accounts (for the purposes of company law). The trustees and the directors consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed. The charity’s gross income exceeded £250,000 and I am qualified to undertake the examination by being a qualified member of Institute of Chartered Accountants of Scotland.

Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:

Basis of independent examiner’s report

My examination was carried out in accordance with the general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. 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 next statement.

Independent examiner’s statement

In connection with my examination, no material matters have come to my attention which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in, any material respect:

I have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached. GosHlllay, Shariq Abdullah CA
