The schcd was so successful it had to relocate to Atkins Road and when. in 1974, Miss Plumridge retired. the school became the largest parent led Scho￿ in the county. It still maintains this uni¢we model, where each parent becomes a member of the 5chcol and rts goveming boay mainty drawn fr(Mn the parent body.

I have recently been elected Chair of Governors. succeeding Gavin Knott who stepped dovm Ihis summer. followng his son leaving to go to secondary school.

The prc¥Jramme was deliberately phased lo ensuro that we did not overfoad parents. pupils and staff at the bèginning and made progress with manageable expectations. We beI￿ve that Ihis was the correct approach as pupil eThJagement has been huge. This contrasts well when hearing the news about the low number of pupils engaging wthin the state sector.

The Govemors consider that gNen the strength of the Charity's balance sheet, the stable cash flow from the ongoing popularity of our School, and the available banking facility that C8n be called upon if need arises. Ihat there is no need to build up a free reserve. The Govemors regard free reserves as being the reserves of the School after deducting fixed assets and any funds held as reslricled or designated. Similar lo many independent schwls. the Schwl has invested heavily in fixed assets which has resulted in this deficf(. On the basbs de$crib8d there is a dgfiGit on free reserves of £713.035 12019.. £1.052.934).

PENSION COMMITMENTS The Schod participates in the Teacher5. Penson Scheme C'the TPS'I for ils leaching staff. The pension charge for the year indudes conlributions payable to the TPS of £319.208 12019-. £216,105) and al the year-end £36,77712019- £27,132) was accrued in resp￿1 of contributions to th"s scheme. The TPS is an unfunded mu￿￿em￿oYer benefits pension scheme govemed by The Teachers, Pensions Regulations 2010 (as amen(1￿) and The Teathers, Penwon Scheme Regulations 2014 las amended). Members contribute on a 'pay as you go" basis with Contribut￿nS from members and the employer being credited to Ihe Exchequer. Retirement arKI other pension benefits are paid by publc funds provided by Partiament. The employer Contribution rate is set by the Secrelary of Stale follothfjng scheme valuations undertaken by the Govemment Actual￿$ Department. The most recent actuarial valuation of the TPS was prepared as at 31 March 2016 and the Valuation Report. which was pU￿lshe￿ in March 2019, confirmed that the empbyer contribution rale for tt)e TPS woukl increase from 16.4% to 23.6% from 1 September 2019. Employers are also required to pay a scheme adminislr*ion levy of 0.08% gving 8 tclal employer contribution rate of 23.68%. The 31 March 2016 Valuation Report was prepared in accordance the beneffts set out in the scheme regulations and under the approach specified in the Directions. as they applied at 5 March 2019. However, the assumptions were considered and sel by the Department for Educab"on prior to the ruling in the 'McCloudlSargeant case.. This case has wuired the courts to consider cases regarding the implemenlalion of the 2015 reftyms lo Public Service Pen￿On$ including the Teachers, Pensions. On 27 June 2019 the Suprerm Cowt denied the 9ovemment pem)ission to appeal the Court ol Appeal's judgment that transitK)nal Provisions introduced to the reformed pension schemes in 2015 gave rise to unlawtul age (5iscrimination. The govemment is resp￿ting Ihe Court's decision and has said il wil engage fully wlh the Employment Tribunal as well a$ emF4oyer and member representatives to agree how the discriminatK)ns will be remedied. A consultation was launched by the 9ovemment on 16 July 2020. and closed to responses on 11 Oclober 2020. The TPS is subject to a cost cap meehanism wtvch was wt in pla￿ to prote￿ laxpayws against unforeseen changes in stheme costs. The Chief Secretary to the Treasury, having in 2018 announced that there would be a review of this cost cap mechanism, in January 2019 announced a pause 10 the cost ap meehanism followng the Court of Appeal's ruling in the McCloudlSaTgeant case and unbl thère is certainty about the value of pensions lo employees from April 2015 orwards. The pause was lifted in July 2020 and the government 1$ preparing to com￿ete the eost corblrol element of the 2016 valuations, which is expected lo be completed in 2021. In view of the above rulings and de￿St0￿5 the assumptions used in the 31 March 2016 Actuarial Valuatbon may become inappropriate. In thi$ scenario. a valuation prepared in accordan¢e wlh revised benefits and suitsbly revised assumptsons would weld different results than those contained in the Acluarrdl Valuation. Until the consultation and the cost eap mecharlsm re¥￿W are completed it is nol possible to conclude on any financial impact or future changes to the contribjth.on rates of the TPS. Accordingly no provision for any additional past benefit perision costs is included in these financial ststements. contri1￿￿onS were made into a defined contritArtion scheme with Standard Lrfe and a stakehdder penS￿n scheme with Legal and General for some non-teaching staff. Contributions were made of £44,19212019'. £37,704} during the year. The School's contribution outstsnding at the year end were £nil12019." £4.249).
