Reserves
The School's reserves policy is to maintain its unrestrirted rese￿eS (excluding pension liabillties or
assets) broadly at the level of one month's expenditure in order to meet day to day running costs of
the School and the cost5 a550Ciated with the maintenance of the fabric of its buildings. This allows

places and the School's future projerted cash flows, tO8ether with support available from the parent

continue its activities for the foreseeable future and consider that there were no material
uncertainties over the School's financial viability. Accordingly, they continue to adopt the going
concern basi5 in preparin8 the financial statements.
PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
The Governors consider the principal rlsks to the School to be those associated with Safeguarding of

the HR Manager.
Safeguarding continues to be the highest prlority for govemors and the School staff. In addition to
the da¥-t￿daY attention given to ensure the School remains a safe place for pupils, governors
maintain oversight of out of school activlties undertaken by pupils. Safeguarding meetings are held
in advance of all residential trips and appropriate reasonable adjustments to arrangements,
induding staffin& are made for pupils with additional needs.
Whllst the governors are respectful of the boundary betsyeen governance and management, they
ontinue to work to make themselves visible to staff and parents. attending as many school events
as possible and gettin8 to know not just the Headmaster and Bursar, but stsff in all areas of the
School. Their presence is welcomed by the whole community. The annual Safeguarding audits have
provided a particularly good opportunity for personal contart between goverftors and staff -
induding support staff.
The Sch<x>fs manasement of more 8eneral Health and Safety rlsks are also dosely monFtored by the
Board. The risks range from fire and infrastructure to personal risks (most notably when pupils are
away from the campus on trips and outdoor activities). The level and breadth of these activities at
the School is impressive and the risks associated with all are minimised by thorough planning and
risk assessment by the School's designated External Visits Co-ordinator. In addition. since the onset
of the COVID-19 pandemic, a full COVID specific risk assessment is now available to be implemented
in the event of a re-emergence of this or a similar pandemic. The Board is fully apprised of anv
han8e5 as they become necessary.
The School's Health and Safety Committee comprises representatives from all sectlons of the School
and report5, Via the Bursar, to the Govemors on a termly basis. The School also employs an external
Health and Safety adviser who provides detalled advlce when necessary as well as provldlng audit
and reporting in specific areas vthen required.
Economlc and Polltlcal Turbulence
The Governors consider the continuing economic and political turbulence together wsth the
affordability of fee5 by parents across the independent sertor to represent significant risk5 to the
School. These risks have bÈen hei8htened by the 8lobal cnergy crisis and the impact of war in
Ukralne. Where pupil numbers have fallen in re￿nt years. staff re-structuring has been

implemented to ensure that staff numbers are appropriate for a smaller school. Further. to mttigate
the continuing risks. a decision wa5 made by governors durin8 the year to extend the 5chool'5
provision to GCSE by adding Years 9,10 and 11. The first Year 9 cohort will commence in September
2023. The addition makes better usc of the school's CXlStin8 built space and requlfes only minor
refurbishment to allow for the older pupils. It is anticipated that this will yield a recovery In total
pupil numbers to approxim3tely 470 within five years. However. other economic and political risks,
includin8 the potential loss of charitable status and the removal of business rates relief currently
enjoyed by the School as a charlty together with the potential introduction of VAT on school fees,
remain. Governors remain alert to the impact of these both on the School's supply costs and to the
livelihoods of the parents who pay fees.
Enrolment at the School was steady through the year with a significant Increase in interest lacros5 all
year groups) at the end of the year, when the extension to GCSE had been announced.
Detailed consideration of risk is undertaken for the School by the Governors in conjunction wth the
Headmaster and Bursar. A risk register is maintained. reviewed termly by the Governors and
updated as necessary. The risk management process and the resultin8 report identify risks, assess
their impart and likelihood and. where necessary, recommend controls to mitigate and monitor

Audltorfs re5ponslbllltles for the audlt of the flnanclal statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the flnantial statements as a
whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an audltorfs
report that Includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a
guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance wiih15As IUKI will always detect a material
misstatement when bt gxists. Mi55tat¢m•nts can arise from fraud or grror and are considergd
material if, individually or in the aggregate. they could rea50nably be experted to influence the
economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
Details of the extent to which the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities, includin8
fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations are set out below.

Irregularities. including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We
identified and 455e55ed the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements from
irregularities. whether due to fraud or error, and discussed these between our audit team members.
We then desiened and performed audit procedures responsive to those risks. including obtainlng
audit evidence sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks within which the charitable
company operates, focusing on those laws and regulations that have a direct effect on the
determinatTron of material amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The laws and
regu13tions we considered in thi5 context were the Companies Art 21J06. the Charities Act 2011,
taxation legislation, together with the Charities SORP IFRS 1021. We assessed the required
compliance wlth these laws and regularions as pan of our audlt procedures on the related financial
statement items.
In addilion, we considered provi51Qn5 of other laws and re8ulation5 that do not have a dirert effect
on the finantial statements but compliance with which might be fundamental to the charitable
companrfs ability to operate or to avoid a material penalty. We also considered the opportunities
and incentives that may exist within the charitable company for fraud. The laws and regulations we
considered in thi3 context for the UK operations were The Education Ilndependent School
Standards) Regulations 2014. Dats Protection ReRulation IGDPRI. Health and safety legislation and
employment legislation.
Auditing Stsndards limit the required audit procedures to identify non-compliance with these laws
