OLDLAND PRE-SCHOOL – CHARITY NUMBER 1024220 

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES 

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2021 

I have examined the attached financial statements. 

Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner: 

The trustees are responsible for the preparation of accounts.  It is my responsibility to state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

## Basis of independent examiner’s report: 

My examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the organisation 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 trustees concerning such matters.  The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts. 

This report is made to you in accordance with the terms of my engagement and for no other purpose.  To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the trustees, for my work of for this report. 

## Independent examiner’s statement: 

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention: 

1. which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements a) to keep accounting records, and b) to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records 

have not been met; or 

2. to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
