## **Report of the Trustees** 

## **for the Year Ended 31st August 2020** 

The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report and accounts for the year ended 31st August 2020. The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the accounts and comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Companies Act 2006 and the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) 'Accounting and Reporting by Charities' preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) issued on 16[th] July 2014. The report takes account of the requirement for Trustees to report annually on public benefit and the Trustees have had regard to the Charity Commission guidance on public benefit. 

## **DIRECTORS REPORT** 

Formed in 1929, Collingwood School served its local community for 90 years under the Collingwood School Educational Trust. However, with decreasing pupil numbers on roll and associated financial losses, after considering the range of options, in autumn 2019 the Board agreed to transfer the activity to the Inspired Learning Group (ILG). ILG is a private group of ten independent schools and a number of nursery sites across South and Southwest London. At the heart of the decision to transfer the School to ILG was the shared ethos and values; and the Board are hopeful that the economies of scale within this larger Group structure will enable the Collingwood setting to thrive and prosper once more. The formal transfer took place on 31 October 2019 and the school community, of pupils, staff and parents is ongoing under the Collingwood name within the ILG structure. 

The transfer was conducted in accordance with Section 119 of the Charities Act. The Directors and Trustees have no commercial or other connection with ILG. In conducting the transfer the Board was advised by Eddisons, Real Estate and Business Valuers, and VWV, lawyers, 

The future activity of the Collingwood Education Trust is under consideration, including grant giving for educational purposes. 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

The 2019/2020 year saw income fall to £130,594 (down from £818,791) due to only operating for 2 months to 31 October 2019. The loss of £39,906 for the year was minimised as far as possible by the trustees. Since November 2019 there has been no trading income and costs have been restricted to minimal overhead expenses such as insurance. Staff previously employed by the Trust, the teachers and support staff of the school, transferred to ILG at the date of disposal. The Balance Sheet position is underpinned by the bank balance of £364,157 on 31st August 2020, reflecting the balance of the retained proceeds from the Maldon Road site and the net proceeds received on the transfer to ILG, depleted by recent trading losses. 

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT** 

## **Governing document** 

The charitable company is governed by its memorandum and articles of association dated 23[rd] June 1978, as amended 29[th] March 1979. 

The Company, a registered charity, is limited by guarantee and has no share capital. Each director is liable for settlement of any Company net liabilities up to, but not exceeding £1. 

## **Trustees recruitment, induction and training** 

The Trustees require a depth of experiences to operate efficiently and effectively. Trustees are suitably trained in Safeguarding and all relevant areas required: as a member of AGBIS Trustees have access to free online training and reference materials. Additional support and advice will be sourced as the Trust moves from an operational school to a grant giving organisation.

## **Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31st August 2020** 

## **Organisational structure** 

The Trustees are legally responsible for the overall management and control of the Charity. 

## **Risk management** 

The Trustees are responsible for the Charity's Risk Management. We have established a risk register which is reviewed periodically. The register identifies risks, and the policy established to mitigate the potential effects. 

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** 

## **Objectives and aims** 

The principal objective of the Charitable Company in the year under review continued to be that of providing education to children together with physical, moral and religious training as an educational charity. Whilst operating as a school the objectives and aims were: 

The aims are:- 

- to provide a high quality education which is enjoyable, stimulating and fun. 

- to ensure that Collingwood has a caring and nurturing environment within a happy and friendly community. 

- to develop a love of learning within a structured, broad and balanced curriculum so that each pupil is confident in his or her ability. 

- to develop a pupil’s learning skills by encouraging a sense of curiosity, open-mindedness, perseverance, objectivity, reflection and critical thinking. 

- to instil values and opinions within the context of mutual respect and understanding of differing belief systems and cultures in Britain. 

- to enable pupils of all abilities to develop knowledge, skills and understanding in all areas of the curriculum in order to furnish them with as much choice as possible when selecting schools for their further education at 11+. 

## **ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE** 

## **Charitable activities** 

The School was inspected by the ISI in November 2019. The Focused Compliance and Educational Quality Inspection Report concluded that: the School met all eight standards across the compliance framework; and on the Educational Quality framework was assessed as ‘Good’ on the achievement of the pupils (including their academic development) and assessed as Excellent’ on the personal development of the pupils. 

## **Investment policy and objectives** 

The object of managing the cash balances is to pursue reasonable returns where possible and minimise interest and charges payable. 

## **Reserves policy** 

The balance of the proceeds from the Maldon Road disposal and the net proceeds from the transfer to ILG are now ringfenced to support the new strategic objectives of the Trust.

## **Public benefit** 

The trustees believe that they have complied with the requirements of the Charities Act with regard to public benefit. The Charity is deliberating whether to offer bursaries. 

The Charity actively communicates with the local community and involves them in as many events as possible. 

## **Plans for the future** 

The Charity will consider how to progress with distributing the reserves. The Trustees also wish to safeguard the assets of the Charity. 

## **SMALL COMPANY** 

Since the company qualifies as small under Section 382, the strategic report required of medium and large companies under the Companies Act 2006 (Strategic Report and Director’s Report) Regulations 2013 is not required.

## **Report of the Trustees** 

**for the Year Ended 31st August 2020** 

## **STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES RESPONSIBILITIES** 

The trustees (who are also the directors of Collingwood School Educational Trust Ltd for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and 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 those financial statements, the trustees are required to 

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

- observe the methods and principles in the Charity SORP; 

- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- State whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the accounts; and 

- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in business. 

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006, Charities Act 2011 and the provision of the trust deed. 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 Trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the Charity and financial information included on the Charity’s website. 

This report has been prepared in accordance with the special provisions of Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006 relating to small companies.

## **Report of the Independent Examiner to the Members of Collingwood School Educational Trust Ltd** 

I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts, as set out on pages 1 to 17, of the above named charity (the “Trust”) for the year ended 31[st] August 2020. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of opinion** 

As the charity's trustees, you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (“the Act”). 

I report in respect of my examination of the Trust’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination, I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act. 

## **Conclusions relating to going concern** 

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the ISAs (UK) require us to report to you where: 

- the Trustees use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is not appropriate; or 

- the Trustees have not disclosed in the financial statements any identified material uncertainties that may cast significant doubt about the charitable company’s ability to continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting for a period of at least twelve months from the date when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

**Report of the Independent Examiner to the Members of** 

**Collingwood School Educational Trust Ltd** 

## **Independent examiners statement** 

I have completed my examination.  I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect: 

- the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; or 

- the accounts did not accord with the accounting records; or 

- the accounts did not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair’ view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination. 

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

The school operates a defined contribution pension scheme for those ineligible for the Teachers’ Pension Scheme. The assets of this scheme are held separately from those of the school in an independently administered fund. The pension cost charge represents contributions payable by the school to the fund and amounted to £1,531 (2019 - £5,126). 

Teachers' pension scheme 

The School participates in the Teachers’ Pension Scheme (“the TPS”) for its teaching staff. The pension charge for the year includes contributions payable to the TPS of £11,942 (2019 - £55,281). 

The TPS is an unfunded multi-employer defined benefits pension scheme governed by The Teachers’ Pensions Regulations 2010 (as amended) and The Teachers’ Pension Scheme Regulations 2014 (as amended). Members contribute on a “pay as you go” basis with contributions from members and the employer being credited to the Exchequer. Retirement and other pension benefits are paid by public funds provided by Parliament. 

The employer contribution rate is set by the Secretary of State following scheme valuations undertaken by the Government Actuary’s Department. The most recent actuarial valuation of the TPS was prepared as at 31 March 2016 and the Valuation Report, which was published in March 2019, confirmed that the employer contribution rate for the TPS would increase from 16.4% to 23.6% from 1 September 2019. Employers are also required to pay a scheme administration levy of 0.08% giving a total employer contribution rate of 23.68%. 

The 31 March 2016 Valuation Report was prepared in accordance with the benefits 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 set by the Department for Education prior to the ruling in the ‘McCloud/Sargeant case’. This case has required the courts to consider cases regarding the implementation of the 2015 reforms to Public Service Pensions including the Teachers’ Pensions. 

On 27 June 2019 the Supreme Court denied the government permission to appeal the Court of Appeal’s judgment that transitional provisions introduced to the reformed pension schemes in 2015 gave rise to unlawful age discrimination. The government is respecting the Court’s decision and has said it will engage fully with the Employment Tribunal as well as employer and member representatives to agree how the discriminations will be remedied. 

The TPS is subject to a cost cap mechanism which was put in place to protect taxpayers against unforeseen changes in scheme 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 to the cost cap mechanism following the Court of Appeal’s ruling in the McCloud/Sargeant case and until there is certainty about the value of pensions to employees from April 2015 onwards. 

In view of the above rulings and decisions the assumptions used in the 31 March 2016 Actuarial Valuation may become inappropriate. In this scenario, a valuation prepared in accordance with revised benefits and suitably revised assumptions would yield different results than those contained in the Actuarial Valuation. 

Until a remedy to the discrimination conclusion has been determined by the Employment Tribunal it is not possible to conclude on any financial impact or future changes to the contribution rates of the TPS. Accordingly no provision for any additional past benefit pension costs is included in these financial statements.
