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.

HAYFRAN TRUST A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF HAYFRAN TRUST

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Hayfran Trust (the ‘charitable company’) for the year ended 31 August 2025 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, the Statement of Cash Flows and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

In our opinion the financial statements:

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charitable company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Other information

The other information comprises the information included in the Report of the Trustees, (including Strategic Report), other than the financial statements and our Report of the Auditors thereon. The Trustees are responsible for the other information. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.

We have nothing to report in this regard.

Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:

Continued on page 6

Page 5

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF HAYFRAN TRUST

Continued from page 5

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

In light of the knowledge and understanding of the company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Strategic Report or the Report of the Directors included within the Report of the Trustees.

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

Responsibilities of Trustees

As explained more fully in the Statement of Trustees’ Responsibilities set out on page five, the Trustees (who are also directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law and trustees of the charity for the purposes of charity law) are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the Trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, the Trustees are responsible for assessing the charitable company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Trustees either intend to liquidate the charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a Report of the Auditors that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is 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 material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

Identifying and assessing potential risks related to irregularities

Irregularities, including fraud, are non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures, in line with our responsibilities, as set out in the auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud, are detailed below.

In identifying and assessing risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations we consider the following:

• the nature of the charity sector, control environment and financial performance;

• results of our enquiries of management about their own identification and assessment of the risks of irregularities;

• any matters we identified having obtained and reviewed the charity's documentation of their policies and procedures relating to:

• the matters discussed among the audit engagement team regarding how and where fraud might occur in the financial statements and any potential indicators of fraud.

As a result of these procedures, we considered the opportunities and incentives that may exist within the organisation for fraud and identified the greatest potential for fraud in the following area: revenue and resource recognition. In common with all audits under ISAs (UK), we are also required to perform specific procedures to respond to the risk of management override.

Continued on page 7

Page 6

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF HAYFRAN TRUST

Continued from page 6

We have also obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks that the company operates in, focusing on provisions of those laws and regulations that had a direct effect on the determination of material amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The key laws and regulations we considered in this context included the UK Companies Act and tax legislation.

Audit response to risks identified

As a result of performing the above, we identified revenue and profit recognition a key audit matter related to the potential risk of fraud. Our procedures to respond to risks identified included the following:

We also communicated relevant identified laws and regulations and potential fraud risks to all engagement team members and remained alert to any indications of fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations throughout the audit.

Owing to the inherent limitations of an audit, there is an unavoidable risk that we may not have detected some material misstatements in the financial statements, even though we have properly planned and performed our audit in accordance with auditing standards. For example, the further removed non-compliance with laws and regulations (irregularities) is from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, the less likely the inherently limited procedures required by auditing standards would identify it. In addition, as with any audit, there remained a higher risk of nondetection of irregularities, as these may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal controls. We are not responsible for preventing non-compliance and cannot be expected to detect non-compliance with all laws and regulations.

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Report of the Auditors.

Use of our report

This report is made solely to the charitable company's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charitable company's members those matters we are required to state to them in a Report of the Auditors and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charitable company and the charitable company's members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

HAYFRAN TRUST A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS for the year ended 31 August 2025

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The principal accounting policies adopted, judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty in the preparation of the financial statements are as follows:

General information and basis of preparation

Hayfran Trust is a company limited by guarantee incorporated and registered in England and Wales. The school constitutes a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2015) – (Charities SORP 2015 (FRS 102)), the Charities Act 2011 and the Companies Act 2006.

The financial statements are prepared in Sterling (£) which is the functional currency of the charitable company.

Going concern

The business and assets of the School have been sold and transferred in the year (see note 19). Therefore, the business and operations of the School under Hayfran Trust are no longer continuing. The operations of the school are continuing under the new owner on the existing site. Hayfran Trust will no longer be running St Francis but will continue to operate, supporting pupils and education at St Francis School.

The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all years presented unless otherwise stated.

Funds

The School’s funds consist of unrestricted and restricted amounts. The School may use unrestricted amounts at its discretion. Designated funds comprise unrestricted funds that have been set aside for particular purposes. Restricted funds can only be used for a particular purpose as specified by the donor.

Fees and similar income

Fees receivable and charges for services and use of premises are accounted for in the period in which the service is provided. Fees receivable are stated after deducting allowances, scholarships and other remissions allowed by the school.

Donations, legacies and fund accounting

Donations and legacies received for the general purposes of the school are included as unrestricted funds. Donations and legacies for activities restricted by the wishes of the donor are taken to “restricted funds” where these wishes are legally binding on the Trustees.

Expenditure

All expenditure is included on an accruals basis and is recognised when there is a legal obligation to pay for expenditure. All costs have been directly attributed to one of the functional categories of resources expended in the SOFA. The irrecoverable element of VAT is included with the item of expense to which it relates.

Tangible fixed assets

Expenditure on fixed assets is capitalised except for expenditure incurred on the replacement of assets of low value with a short life. Repair, renovation and replacement expenditure is written off as expenditure in the statement of financial activities. The cost of fixed assets is their purchase cost, together with any incidental costs of acquisition. Depreciation is calculated to write off the cost of tangible fixed assets, less their estimated residual values, over the expected useful lives of the assets concerned. The principal annual rates used for this purpose are:

Page 12

HAYFRAN TRUST A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS for the year ended 31 August 2025

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES continued

Tangible fixed assets continued Freehold property - 2% on cost Property improvements - at varying rates between 2.5 and 14.33% on cost Plant and equipment - at varying rates between 10% and 33.33% on cost Motor vehicles - 25% on cost Nursery unit - at varying rates between 4% and 33.33% on cost

Impairment of fixed assets

At each reporting end date, the charity reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any).

Pensions

The school operates a defined contribution group personal pension scheme for teachers and other employees.

Debtors

Debtors are measured at their recoverable amount.

Creditors and provisions

Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.

Taxation

The company is a registered charity and, as such, is not liable to corporation tax.

Financial instruments

The School only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value.

Critical accounting estimates and areas of judgement

The preparation of financial statement in conformity with generally accepted accounting practice requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as well as the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the statement of financial position date and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.

Critical accounting estimates and assumptions

Fixed Assets – Up until the point of sale, during the year, the fixed assets were held at fair value. This was estimated by the Trustees based on the sales price and third-party professional valuations for the property and its fixtures and equipment. The valuation inherently includes a degree of judgement to reflect the nature and condition of the property as well as the timing of the sale.
