Respollsibilltles of trustees for the financial statemeDts As explained more fully in the Statement of Govemors. Responsibilities set out on page 7, the trust¢es (who are also the directors of the charitable coinpany for the pury)oses of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a tru¢ and fair view, and for such internal control as the truste¢s determine is necessary to enabl¢ the preparation of financial statements that are fr¢e from materi21 misstst¢Tnent, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the group's and the parent charitable company's ability 10 CQIltinue as a going concem, disclosin& as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going cortcern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the charitable company or to Cease operations. or have no realistic altemative but lo do so. Auditor's re5ponsibllities for the audit of the finaneial statements Our objective5 are to obtsin reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or cr. and to issu¢ an auditor's r¢port that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurdnce is a high level of assurance, but l5 not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAS (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered Enaterial if, individually or in the aggregate, they collld reasonably be expected to intluence the economi¢ decisions of users taken on the basis of these financitl statemEnts. Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined 8bove. to detect Inaterial misstatements in respect of irregularities, in¢luding ftaud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irreglllarities, including fraud is detailed below.. Based on our llnderstsnding of the group and the environment in which it operat¢s. we identified that the principal risks of non- compliance with laws and regulations related to'fhe Educational (Independent School Standards) Regulations 2014, safeguarding regulations, health and safety requirements, GDPR, employment law, and chartty law, and we considered the extent to which non- compliance might have a material effect on the financial statements. We also considered those laws and regulations that have a direct impact on th¢ preparation of the finan¢ial statements such as the Companies Act 2006, the Charities Act 201 I, and payoll tsxes. We evaluated Inanagement"s opponunities for fraudulent Inanipulation of the financial statement5 (including the risk of override of ontro15), and d<t¢rinined that the Principal risks were related to posting inappropriate joumal entries and management bias in making awounting estimates and judgements. Audit procedures performed by the engagement team included.. Inspecting ¢orrespondente with regulators and tax authorÈties' Discussions with management inclLtding consideration of known or suspected instsnces of non-compliance with laws and regulation and fraud,. Evaluating manag¢Tnent's controls designed to prevent aÉJd detect irregularities. Reviewing minut¢s of Govemor5' meetings dur8 the year; Identifying and testing joum21s, in particular joumal entri# posted at the year-¢nd- and Challenging assumptions and judgements made by rnanagement in their critical aeeounting estimates. Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will noi detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irr¢gularities occulg due to fraud lather than error, as fraud 2nYolv¢s intentional concealmeE]( forgery, collusion. omission gr misrepresentation.
