The financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Companies Act 2006, the Memorandum and Articles of Association, and Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102, effective January 2019).
Structure, Governance and Management
Paradise RIDA School Trust Limited is a registered UK charity, incorporated as a company on 23 March 2012, company number 08004087, limited by guarantee, and registered as a charity on 16 December 2013 under charity number 1155025. The governing document are its Articles of Association.
Appointment and Removal of Trustees
The power to and responsibility for the appointment and removal of Trustees from the Board rests with the Trustees collectively.
Objectives and activities
The objectives of the trust, as set out in its governing document are:
-
To advance education of young people through the establishment and maintenance of an educational facility / facilities.
-

-
To assist in efforts to relieve poverty at a local, national and international level by providing support and assistance to those who are in need of help.
Achievements and Performance
During the year, the organisation came together with other local schools to form an enlarged entity.

As detailed above, several new trustees were also appointed following the merger. Following the year end, several of the directors and trustees relinquished their positions as set out in the Directors and Trustees section.

Trustees’ Report
Paradise RIDA School Trust Ltd
The charity has:
-
Continued to provide its premises at a subsidised or nil cost to local community groups;
-
Supported other charities by helping them to meet their objectives at no cost to them;
-
Raised awareness of deprivation at a local, national and international level;
Financial Review
The year’s financial results are outlined in the Statement of Financial Activities and Balance Sheet and further explained in the notes to the accounts.
Impact of Merger on Financial Performance
As a consequence of the merger with RIDA there has been a significant increase in both revenue and expenditure. The increase in income is primarily attributable to the merger, as the charity has incorporated the funding streams and other revenue sources of the merged entity. Similarly, the rise in expenditure reflects the integration of the merged organisation’s activities, operational costs, and associated staffing and service delivery expenses.
While the merger has led to an initial increase in costs, as the integration process stabilises, the organisation expects to realise operational synergies, efficiency gains, and ultimately cost savings. These benefits will enhance the charity’s long-term sustainability and its ability to deliver impact more effectively.
Prior period adjustment
The financial statements have been restated to reflect the reclassification of a long-term debtor as leasehold improvements. This adjustment was made to more accurately present the nature of the asset in accordance with applicable accounting standards.
As a result of this reclassification, leasehold improvements have been recognised as tangible fixed assets and depreciated over their estimated useful life. The impact of this adjustment is as follows:
-
The unrestricted general funds at 31st August 2022 have decreased by £77,061, representing the accumulated depreciation now recognised on the leasehold improvements.
-
Depreciation has been charged at an annual rate of £5,504 from the date of initial recognition.
This adjustment ensures that the financial statements more appropriately reflect the nature and treatment of the asset.
Reserves
The charity’s available reserves at the year-end are shown in note 14 of the financial statements. The surplus of income over expenditure fell from £63,816 in 2022 to an overall deficit of £46,720 for 2023. It is the policy of Paradise RIDA to maintain an adequate level of reserves to fund working capital and unexpected events and to accumulate resources against unexpected changes in the operating environment so that our work and the users of our services are not adversely affected.
It is the Trustees’ intention to increase its level of reserves to the equivalent value of three months operating costs to ensure that the charity can continue to meet its obligations and safeguard its activities.
4
Trustees’ Report
Paradise RIDA School Trust Ltd
The balance sheet position as at 31st August 2023 shows reserves deficit of £46,720.
Unrestricted reserves funds are available for the general purpose of the charity. Paradise RIDA plans to use these to underpin our work and ensure sustainability of the services we offer.
Going Concern
The Board has carefully reviewed the financial performance of Paradise RIDA School Trust Ltd for 2023, including post-year-end performance, forecasted cash flows, and the impact of restructuring measures undertaken. While the Trust’s Total Funds position is currently negative, the Board acknowledges this challenge and has put in place a clear financial strategy to address it.
The negative funds position primarily reflects a deliberate strategy to invest in our staffing and resources which will yield long term benefit. Crucially, whilst the Trust has had to temporarily access external funding, there is no immediate liquidity concerns. The Board remains confident that with planned financial adjustments, continued support from stakeholders, and operational efficiencies, this position will improve over time.
Having assessed the Trust’s financial outlook, including cash flow projections and funding commitments, the Board believes that the charity has sufficient resources to meet its obligations and continue operating effectively. Therefore, despite the current deficit, the Trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties affecting the Trust’s ability to continue as a going concern, and the financial statements have been prepared on this basis.
Risk Management
Paradise RIDA has an internal risk control system in place. The Directors are aware of the controls and are committed to reviewing these on an ongoing basis. There is a comprehensive finance manual in place and controls exist over funding, expenditure and general financial management. Management accounts, including cash and reserves position, are shared with the Board regularly.
Paradise RIDA identifies the key risks facing the organisation and records these in a risk register. The risk register is an active management tool that is reviewed on a monthly basis by the senior management team. Each risk is rated and mitigating actions are assigned to ensure that there is minimal exposure to the risk. The risks are also reviewed to ensure that adequate mitigating actions are in place. The Board review the risk register on a quarterly basis.
Staff and Volunteers
Paradise RIDA is operated through a network of committed staff and volunteers. Without their continuing drive and commitment Paradise RIDA would not be the force it is. The directors reaffirm their commitment to an organisational culture that cares for our people and those we serve.

Trustees’ Report
Paradise RIDA School Trust Ltd
Unprecedented External Events – Imposition of VAT on fees
The UK government's decision to impose VAT on private school fees is expected to have a significant financial impact on the sector, including our organisation. This policy change will increase the cost of education for families, potentially affecting student enrolment levels and financial accessibility. While the full implications are yet to materialise, we anticipate increased pressure on fee structures, potential shifts in demand, and a need for enhanced financial planning to mitigate the effects. The organisation is actively assessing the impact and exploring measures to ensure financial sustainability while continuing to deliver high-quality education in line with our charitable objectives.
Statement of responsibilities of the trustees
The trustees (some of whom are also directors of Paradise RIDA School Trust Ltd for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees' Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that period.
In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;
-
make judgments and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in operation.
The trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the provisions applicable to companies subject to the small companies' regime.

Paradise RIDA School Trust Ltd
Notes to the Financial Statements
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2023
1. Accounting policies
Statutory information
Paradise RIDA School Trust Ltd is a charitable company limited by guarantee and is incorporated in United Kingdom. The registered office address is 1 Bretton Street, Savile Town, Dewsbury, WF12 9BB
Summary of significant accounting policies and key accounting estimates
The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.
Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (2nd Edition, effective January 2019) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006. The trustees have taken advantage of the reduced disclosure framework exemptions as noted in FRS 102 section 1.12.
Paradise RIDA School Trust Ltd 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.
Going concern
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.
The trustees assess whether the use of going concern is appropriate i.e. whether there are any material uncertainties related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the ability of the Charity to continue as a going concern. The trustees make this assessment in respect of a period of one year from the date of approval of the financial statements.
Based on the performance in 2024 & 2025 to date and forecast cashflows, the Board believes that the charity has adequate resources for the foreseeable future.
The Board believes that there are no material uncertainties that call into doubt the charitable company’s ability to continue in operation. Therefore, the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.
Income and Donations
Donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised as income when the charity has control over the item or received the service, any conditions associated with the donation have been met, the receipt of economic benefit from the use by the charity of the item is probable and that economic benefit can be
11
Paradise RIDA School Trust Ltd
Notes to the Financial Statements
measured reliably. In accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102), volunteer time is not recognised so refer to the trustees’ annual report for more information about their contribution.
Income from charitable activities
All incoming resources are included in the statement of financial activities when the charity is entitled to the income and the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy. The following specific policies are applied to the particular categories of income:
Voluntary income
Voluntary income is received by way of grants, donations and gifts and is included in full in the statement of financial activities when receivable.
Grants
Grants where entitlement is not conditional on the delivery of a specific performance by the charity, are recognised when the charity becomes unconditionally entitled to the grant.
Expenditure
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement, and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.
Expenditure is classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.
Charitable activities
Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the Charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them.
Financial instruments
The charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.
Financial instruments are recognised in the charity's balance sheet when the charity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally 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.
12
Paradise RIDA School Trust Ltd
Notes to the Financial Statements
Basic financial assets
Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are measured at transaction price including transaction costs.
Liabilities
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of operations from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised at transaction price.
The charity does not have anything other than basic financial instruments.
Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.
Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:
Leasehold improvement 4% Straight line over 25 years Fixtures, fittings & IT equipment 20% on cost
The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in the statement of financial activities.
Trade debtors
Trade debtors are amounts due from customers for merchandise sold or services performed in the ordinary course of business.
Trade debtors are recognised initially at the transaction price. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment. A provision for the impairment of trade debtors is established when there is objective evidence that the Charity will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and other short-term highly liquid holdings that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value.
Trade creditors
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if the Charity does not have an unconditional right, at the end of the reporting period, to defer settlement of the creditor for at least twelve
13
Paradise RIDA School Trust Ltd
Notes to the Financial Statements
months after the reporting date. If there is an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting date, they are presented as non-current liabilities.
Fund accounting
Unrestricted income funds are general funds that are available for use at the trustee's discretion in furtherance of the objectives of the Charity.
Designated income funds are general funds which have been set aside at the trustee’s discretion for specific purposes. As at the year end, and in line with the previous year, the Charity does not have any designated funds.
Restricted income funds are those donated for use in a particular area or for specific purposes, the use of which is restricted to that area or purpose.
2. Judgements
Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The Trustees consider that there are no significant areas of judgements or estimates.
