EAST LONDON ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY TRAINING {A company limited by guarantee) TRUSTEES, REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2021 Like many organisations across the UK, whether publi¢, private or non-profit, the coronavirus pandemi¢ presented serious challenges to our operabonal model and necessitated fast adaptation to many of our delivery methods.

Wellington Weakh Management, Market Axess, Mimecast and the Nalional Lottery, and 80, ¢ombined with eontinued high levels of qualrty delivery, and in this way have both fvther diversffied our ncome and increased our reserves. Neverthele$$, Tru$tee$ are clear that. in common wth many organisatr'ons in the UK'S private and non-profit sector, the current economic and funding situalion poses a significant risk to our cashflow and ability lo build reserves. We have increased our ¢apa¢ity in the areas of adminislralion. fundraising, marketing and Sludenl support so that we are well prepared and equipped lo support the organisalion, ils staff and students throughout the coming months and years.

Although the pandemic caused substantial disruption to the learning process. the nature of our work - being almost exclusively education services direct lo those in need - has been able lo continue and the oiganisation has remained open online throughout. Combined with astute financial management, pro•active fundraising and careful managing of costs, ELATT was able to keep trading wthout fudoughing any staff and wthoul requiring a coronavirus business loan. In thi5 way, the Trustees have also been able lo lake important 5tep5 towards their reserves largel, which the Board see as essential in order lo enable the f[rtU￿ agilrty of the organisalion. Page 8

EAST LONDON ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY TRAINING {A company limited by guarantee) TRUSTEES, REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2021 Wrth this backgroun¢J on contsnued success in delivery and income, the Trustees have Concluded that they have a reasonable expectats'on that the Charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. In particular, the Trustees took great encouragement from the fact that the Group achieved a surplus of £399,680 in 2020-2021. which has continued the improvement in the organisalion's financial position after a Ihree-year penod of high expenditure on the redevelopment of the building, and al the mid-way point of 2021-2022 believe that ELATT Can Continue lo generate a surplus in the new financial year. Accordingly, they continue to adopt the going cOr￿M basis in preparing the annual report and accounts. The HNLC continues lo perfom as expected. wth its sole income coming from fentsl of the property lo ELATT and rts main expenditure remaining the fvlfilment of the mortgage loan and its associated charges. Al the year end the Group held total reserves of £2,657,159 of which £1.030,439 are free re5erve5 (defined as unreslricled funds not held with Fixed Assets. mortgage debt or designated funds) which Continues lo show improvement towards the mid-range of this tsrgel since rts posl-building redevelopment work position n 2017-2018. The Charty does not fundraise directly with Ihe public. A minimal amount of unsolicrted donations were received in the year, therefo￿ the Charrty does need to follow a fundraising standards scheme. Reserves Pollcy In a¢¢ordan¢e wlh the re￿mmendatIonS of the Charity Commi$$i¢)n, the Reserves Policy is reviewed annually at the lime of receiving the audiled accounts. The Trustees are clear on why ELATT needs to hold adequate regeNes. This is order to.. Protect the organisalion from flucluabons in grant and contract income, mosl of vthich is fixed-term erther al one, two or three years. Ensure the organisation maintains heatthy working capital against a backdrop of grant income and paymenl-by-results conlracls, vthich in both cases often See arrears payments arriving 3 - 6 months after delivery lakes place. Invest in the infrastructure and skills wul￿d lo safeguard the ongoing sustsinability and capacty of the organisation. Have adequate cash in order to oversee a managed d¢)wn in the evenl of closure. In thi5 context the Board agreed a longer term goal to have betsyeen three and six months, running costs in free reserves las defined as unrestricted funds that are not held as designale<l funds, fixed assets or mortgage debt). At the year-end this target was £600.000 at the lower point and £1.200.000 at its highest. At the year-end free reserves amounted to £1,030.439 representing 5 month's running Costs. This reflects the proces5 01 rebuilding of ELATT'S free reserves following the substantial investment made into ELATT'S property in Hackney between 2016-2018, of which a Significant part1£249.9511 wa5 5elf-funded - despite this substsnlial outlay, ELATT'S reserves have built steadily since that lime. and ils cash holdings Increased. The Board remain strong in their Tesolve lo fulfil ELATT'S reserves policy and are determined to rebuild ELATT'S levels of free reserves foll0v￿ng the building work through carefvl budgets"ng, expenditure monitoring and diversified fundraising. Thwee years since this work completed. ELAT[ have registered improving surpluses. increasing income wrthoul commensurately in¢￿a51n9 rts Cosl base. as well as making continued improvements to the student experience and faciltbes.

EAST LONDON ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY TRAINING IA Company Llmltsd by Guarnntso) INDEPENDENT AUDITORS. REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF EAST LONDON ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY TRAINING (CONTINUED) In preparing the financial stalemenls, the Trustees are responsible for assessing the Group's and Charity's ability to Continue as a going concem. disclosing. as applicable. matters related to going ¢oncem and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Trustees either intend to liquidate the Group or Charity or to cease operations, or have no realisbc attemative but to do so. Audltors, r•sponslbllltl•s for tho •udlt of th• financlal stst•m•nts Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about vthelher the financial statements as a whole are free from material misslatemenl, vh)elher due to fraud or error. and to issue an Auditors, Report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance Is a high level ol assurance. but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance wth ISA$ IUKI wll a￿￿y$ detect a material misslatemenl vthen il exists. Misslatemenls Can arise from fraud or error and are considered material rf, 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. Irregularits'es, including fraud. are instsnces of non-compliance wth laws and regulations. We design procedures in line wth our responsibilities, oullined above, lo detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below.. Obtaining an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks that the entity operates in, fo¢u$ing on those laws and regulations that had a direct effect on the financial stalemenls.. Enquiry of management lo identify any in$tsn¢es of known or su$peded instances ol fraud,. Enquiry of management and those charged with governance arcHJnd actual and potential litigation and claims., Enquiry of management about any instances of non•compliance with laws and regulations,. Reviewing the control systems In place and lesling the effectiveness of the Controls., Performing audrt work over the risk of management override of wntrols, in¢luding te$ling of joumal entries and other adjustments for appropriateness. evaluating the business rationale of Significant transaction5 outside the nom)al course of business and reviewing accounting estimates for bias," Reviewin9 minutes of meetings of those charged with govemance,. and Reviewng financial slalemenl disclosures and testsng lo suprK)rb"ng t1ocumentslion to assess compliance with applicable laws and ￿gUlations. Because of the inherent limitations of an audit. there is a risk that wll not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non<ompliance wilh regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation 15 removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial slatemenls. as we will be less likety to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregulanb.es occurring due lo fraud ralher than error. as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery. collusion, omission or misrepresentats'on.
