## **Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Philippines Schools Project**
I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Philippines Schools Project for the year ended 31[st] December 2021.
## **Responsibilities and basis of report**
As the charity trustees of Philippines Schools Project you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act').
I report in respect of my examination of the accounts of Philippines Schools Project carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
## **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 giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
1. accounting records were not kept in respect of Philippines Schools Project as required by section 130 of the Act; or
2. the accounts do not accord with those records.
I have no concerns and 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.
