Th¢ financial reporting fr&mewoTk th&t has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United KiDgdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 The Fin(mcial Reporling Standard opplicable in ihe UK alRepublIC oflreland{Unit¢d Kingdom Generally Acceptsd Accounting Practice). In our opinion the fmanciai statements.. give a lrne and fair view of the state of the charitable company's affairs &s at 31 August 2023 and of its incoming resources and application of resour¢¢s. including its in¢om¢ and expendithre, for th¢ year then ended; have been properly prepared in accordanee with Unitsd Kingdom Generally Ac¢ept¢d Aocounting Practice; and hav¢ been prepad in accordanc¢ with the qUIrements of the Companies Act 2006. BAS FOR OPLNION We conducted our audit in accordance with tnternational Standards on Auditing (UK) USAS (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities underthose starLdards are further described in th¢ Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independ¢nt of th¢ charitsble company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our &udit of the financial statements in the UK. including the FRC'S Ethical Standarl and we have fulfilled our other ethi¢al responsibiliti¢s irl aOrdance with these requirements. We believe that the audtt evidence we hav¢ obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. CONCLUSIONS RELATING To GoG CONCERN tn auditing the fu)ancial ststements, we hav¢ concluded that th¢ lThstees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the finan¢tal stat¢m¢nls is appropriate. Based on th¢ work we have perfornled. w¢ have not identified any matsrial uncertainties relating to ¢vents or conditions thaL individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the entit)Is ability to continue as a going concern for a riod of at least twelve months from when the fjtwicial statements are authorised for issue. Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of th¢ 1nS with respect to going C4)ncern are described in the relevant s¢clions of this pOrt.
THE STUDY (WIMBLEDON) LIMITED Page 19 EPENDENr AUDITORS, REPORT TO THE MEMBERS FOR THE YEAR EM)ED 31 AUGUST 2023 EXTENT TO WHtCH THE AUD WAS CONSIDERED CAPABLE OFDETECTING IRREGULATIES, INCLUDING FK4uD Th¢ objectiv¢s of our &udiL in resp¢ct to fraud, are.. to identify and assess the risks of material misststement of the financial statements due to fraud- to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the assessed risks of material misstatement due to frau(L through designing and implementing appropriate responses. and to respond appropriately to fraud or suspected fraud identified during the audit. However, the prin responsibility for the pr¢vention and d¢fr¢tion of fraud rests with both those charged with governance of the entity and its management. Our approach was &s ft>llows: W¢ id¢ntified are&8 of laws and regulations that could reasonably be expected to have a material effect on th¢ financtal statements from our general commercial and sector experience, and through discussion with the directors and other management (a5 required by auditing standards). and discussed with the alrtorS and other managem¢nt th¢ policies and procedures regarding ¢omplianc¢ with laws and r¢gulations' We considered the legal and regulatory frameworks dirtlY applicable to the fitwicial stat¢m¢nts reporting framework (FRS 102 and the Compani¢s Ath 2006) and the relevant tax compliance regulations. We considered th¢nattwe of the industy, the control environmentand business perforniance, including the key drivers for management's remuneration. We Communicat identified laws and regulations throughout our team and r¢main¢d alert to any itLdications of non-¢omplianc¢ throughout the audi¢ and W¢ considered th¢ procedures and controls thatthe company has establishedto address risks identifi¢d. or that otherwise pr¢v¢nt. deter and detect fraud. and how senior management monitors those pro¢r¢S and controls. B&sed on this understanding we desi8ned our audit pr(Kedures to idtify non-compliance with such laws and regulations. Where the risk was considered to be higher. we performed audit procedure5 to addsS ¢a¢h id¢ntifi¢d fraud risk. These proc¢dur¢s included: testing manual journals. revi¢wiDg the financial statsment disclosures and testing to supporting documentation. p¢rforn)ing analytical procedures" and ¢nquirin8 of manag¢m¢nt, and were d¢$ied to provide reasonable aUrance that the fll]ancial stateTnents were fr¢¢ from fraud or eor. Owing to the inherent limitations of an audiL there is an unavoidable risk that we may not have detected some material misstatements in the financial statements. even though we have properly platmed and perfornled our audit in accordance with auditing StandaS. For example. Ihe further removed non-compliance with l&ws and regulations (ittegularities) is from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, the less likely the inherently limit¢d procedures required by audlting standards would identify it. Th¢ risk is also greater regarding irregular&ti¢s occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional ¢onc¢almenL forgery, collusion. omission or misrepresentation. We are not resw)nsible for preventing non<ompliance and cannot be expected to de non-complianc¢ with all laws and regulations.

Our resFonsibilty is to read the other inforniation and, in doing so. consider whether the other infonnation is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit or otherwise appears to be materiatly misstated. If we identify such material in¢onsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to deterniine whether this gives ris¢ to a material misstat¢ment in the fanCial statem¢Dts th¢mselves. If. based on the work we have performed. we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other infonnation. we are required to report that fact. We hav¢ nothing to r¢port in this r¢gard. Op10N$ ON OTHER Tr14fTERS PREscRED BY THE COMPAMES ACT 21MJ6 In our opinion. based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit.. the inforniation given in the trnste¢s' report, which includes the directors, report and the strategic report prepared for company law purposes. for the financial year for which the financial statements are pr¢par¢d is consistent with the finan¢ial stat¢ments" and th¢ strategic report and the directors, report included within the trustees, rerK)rt has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requir¢ments.

AUDITOR'S REsPONSIBILITs FOR ThE AUDIT OF THE FAr+IcJAL STATEMENTS Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about wheth¢r the financial statements as a whole ar¢ free from mat¢rial misstatemenL wh¢th¢r due to fraud or ern)r. and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assuranc¢ is a high level of assurance, is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in aec<)rd8nee with ISAS (UK) will always detect a material misstal¢m¢nt when it ¢xists. Misstatetnents can arise from fraud or Tor and are ¢onsider¢d material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economi¢ decisions of users taken on the basis of th¢s¢ financial statements. Iegularities. including frdud. are instan of non•compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in lin¢ with our responsibilities, outIined above. to detect material misstatements in reSpt of iffegularities. including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities. including fraud is det&iled below.. Our approach was as follows: We identified areas of laws and regulations that could reasonably be expected to have a material effect on the financial statem¢nts from our general commercial and sector experience, and through discussion with the dir¢¢tors and other management (as required by auditing Standards). and discussed with the directors and other management the policies and procedures regarding compliance with laws and regulations; We Considered the legal and regulatory frameworks diredly applicable to the financial statements reporting framework (FRS 102 and the Companies Act 2006) and the relevant t&x complian¢¢ regulations" We considered the nare of the indusEry, the Control environment and business perforniance, including the key drivers for management's remuneration; We communicated identified laws And regulations throughout our team and remained alert to any indications of non-compltance througFLOUt the audil; We consideredthe procedures And controls that the companyhas eslablish¢d to address risks identified, or that othenvise prevent, deter and detect fraud. and how senior management monitors those procedures and controls.

Basic FinaD¢ial As8¢ts Basic financial assets, which include trade and other re¢¢iv&bl¢s and cash and bank balances. are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using tILe effective interest metho(L less any impairn]ent. Interest is rewlsed using the effective interest rate, except for short-term re¢¢ivables when the recognition of interest would be immaterial. Basic Finanei41 Liabilities Basic financial liabilities, including trade and other payables are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constithtes a fJDan¢ing tranStiO wher¢ the debt instrument is measured at the present valu¢ of th¢ futur¢ payments discounted at a market rate of interest.

All other leases are classified as operating l¢as¢s. Ass¢ts held under finan¢¢ leases are recognised as assets at th¢ lower of the assets fair value at the date of inception and the present value of th¢ minimum l¢as¢ payments. The related liability is included in the Balance Sheet as a finance lease obligation. t£as¢ payments are treated as consisting of capital and interest ¢l¢m¢nts. The interest is charged to profit or loss so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. o) Provlsions Provisions are recognised when th¢ School has a legal or constrnctiv¢ pr¢s¢nl obligation as a resuli of a past event, it is probable that th¢ School will be required to s¢ttl¢ that obligation and a reliabl¢ estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle th¢ present obligation at the reporting end date, taking into account th¢ risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligaiion. Where the ¢ff¢ct of the titne value of rnon¢y is material, the amount expected to be required to settle the obligation is recognised at present valu¢. When a provision is measured at pr¢s¢nt value, the unwinding of the discount is recognised as a finance cost in net income/(exp¢ndtture) in the period in which it ariseJ. 2.

SHARE CAPITAL The Company is limited by guarant¢¢ and does not have a share capital. The maximum liability of ¢ach member in the event of the Company being wound up is £1. 12. CONTROL The Company is under the control of the Directors who also act as Governors to the School. 13. PENSION CONTRIBUTIONS Tetheher's Pension Seheme Th¢ School participates in the Teachers, Pension Scheme ("the TPS-) for its teaching staff. The schem¢ is a defined benefit scheme in the UK. It is not possible for the Company to obtain sufficient infomiation to enable it to account for the scheme as a defined benefit scheme. Therefore it accounts for the scheme as & defined contribution scheme. The scheme is subject to the funding legislation outlined in the Pensions Act 2004 which came into force on 30 December 2005. This, together with do¢uments issued by the Pensions Regulator and Technical Actuarial Standards issued by the Financial Re)rtIng Council, set out th¢ fram¢work for funding defined benefit occupational pension schemes in the UK. Independent Sehools, PeD5ion Scheme The School also participat¢s in this scheme, a multi-employer scheme which provides benefits to some 66 non-associated employers. The scheme is a defined benefit scheme in the UK. li is not possible for the School to obtain sufficient infomiation to enabl¢ it to account for the scheme as a defined benefit scheme. Th¢r¢for¢ it accounts for the scheme as a defined contribution scheme. The scheme is classified as a'last- man standing arrangemenl,. Therefore the Company is potentia]ly liable for other participating employers, obligations if those employers are unable to meet their share of the scheme deficit following withdrawal from the scheme. Participating employers are legally requircd to meet their share of the scheme deficit on an annuity purchase basis on withdrawal from th¢ scheme. A full actuarial valuation for the scheme was caled out with an effective date of 30 September 2020. This actuarial valuation was certified on 16 De¢¢mber 2021 and show¢d assets of £201.] m. liabilities of £256.3m and a deficil of £55.2m. To eliminate this funding shortfall, the trusfres and the participating employers have agreed ihat additional contributions will be paid, in combination from all employers, to the scheme. Where the scheme is in d¢fi¢it and where the Company has weed to a deficit funding arrangement the Company recognises a liability for this obligation. The amount r¢cognised is the net present value of the defieit reduction contributions payable under the agre¢m¢nt that relatss to the deficit.
