SEVENOAKS SCHOOL FOUNDATION

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2021

The Trustees of Sevenoaks School Foundation present their annual report for the year ended 31 July 2021, together with the audited accounts for the year. The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice “Accounting and Reporting by Charities” revised 2015 (The Charities SORP), as well as with applicable accounting standards and statutory requirements.

REFERENCE AND ADMINISTRATIVE INFORMATION

A Scheme for Sevenoaks School Foundation (307923) was approved by the Charity Commission on 26 January 2004. It is a distinct charity from Sevenoaks School and has independent Trustees. The Trustees are listed on page one, as are particulars of the executive officers, registered address and the Charity’s professional advisers.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

Governing Document

The Foundation is governed by the Scheme of 26 January 2004.

Recruitment and Training of Trustees

Trustees are appointed by the Governors of Sevenoaks School, a Company Limited by Guarantee (4908949) and a registered charity (1101358). In making these appointments, account is taken of eligibility, personal competence, specialist skills and availability. Induction is conducted by the Clerk and Assistant Clerk to the Foundation and training on governance and other relevant matters is made available to the Trustees. The purpose of the training is to keep Trustees informed and updated on current issues in the sector and regulatory requirements. The Trustees are aware of the Charity Governance Code published in 2017 (and subsequent update) which sets out the principles and recommended practice for good governance within the sector. Sevenoaks School Foundation keeps its governance arrangements under review with reference to the principles within the code.

Organisational Management

The Trustees are responsible for the overall management and control of Sevenoaks School Foundation and meet on at least two occasions during the year. The Clerk to the Foundation and the Executive Director of Advancement attend meetings of the Trustees, as do the Headmaster of Sevenoaks School, the Assistant Clerk and the Director of Finance, and together this group are the key management personnel. When required, the Trustees set up Steering Groups to oversee major projects.

Remuneration policy is set by the Trustees with the objective of rewarding staff, including key management personnel, fairly and reasonably. The appropriateness and relevance of the remuneration policy is reviewed annually having taken account of comparative pay data.

Risk Management

A formal review of the charity’s risk management processes is undertaken on an annual basis with the aim of reviewing the major risks to the Foundation. The key controls used by the charity include: formal agendas and briefing papers for committee meetings; strategic and business planning; budgeting and management accounting; clear authorisation and approval levels; and vetting procedures as required by law for the protection of children. The Trustees have reviewed the principal areas of the Foundation’s operations and considered the major risks faced in each area. The Trustees believe the principal risks are a failure to raise sufficient funds to carry out the plans of the Foundation (particularly in view of the ongoing impact on fundraising of the Covid pandemic) and potential cost overruns on capital projects. In the opinion of the Trustees, the Foundation has established robust financial controls and business planning systems which should allow risks to be mitigated to an acceptable level. The staffing requirements of the Foundation were reviewed and the establishment reduced during 2020/21 whilst still enabling the Foundation to operate effectively in the current fundraising climate. A decision was taken in 2019/20 to delay the construction of the new girls’ boarding house to preserve cash pending an assessment of the implications of the pandemic and future demand for boarding. Construction is now however proceeding based on a strong business case.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2021

OBJECTS, AIMS AND ACTIVITIES

Objects

The objects of the charity are the advancement of education by the provision of a day and boarding school in or near Sevenoaks and by ancillary or incidental educational activities and other associated activities for the benefit of the community and, in selecting pupils to attend the School, preference shall be given to boys and girls who are or who have a parent or parents resident in the designated area. In this context the designated area is defined as Sevenoaks and the immediately surrounding area.

Aims and Intended Impact

The aim of the Foundation is to provide support to the Governors of Sevenoaks School in providing a first-class education. The Trustees do so by leasing the buildings in which the School carries out its activities and by overseeing the work of the Foundation Office in raising the funds necessary to support both new building projects and a widening of access by the award of free and assisted places. By looking to the future, we believe that Sevenoaks will maintain its position as a leading independent school with a worldwide reputation.

Objectives for the Year

Our objectives during the reporting year were:

  1. Together with School Governors and senior staff, to participate in a review of priorities and sequencing of projects in the 2019 Masterplan.

  2. In consultation with Governors and guided by Horizon 2032, the review of the 2019 Masterplan, and the outcomes of other strategic work being undertaken by the School, to consider the aims and objectives of the next stage of the Campaign for Sevenoaks School.

  3. In consultation with Governors, to consider how the available resources of the Foundation might be allocated in support of the emerging objectives of the School. This may include providing support to the School’s strategies for mitigating the impact of Covid-19 on the School and its students and their families.

  4. To continue developing strategies and plans to cultivate and strengthen Sevenoaks School’s culture of philanthropy

  5. To maintain relationships with benefactors and supporters while the new Headmaster establishes himself in his role.

  6. To review and ensure compliance with best practice fundraising guidelines, the GDPR and PECR.

Strategies to Achieve the Year’s Objectives

In pursuing the Foundation’s objectives, Trustees have participated in steering groups, working groups and consultation fora with senior members of staff and Governors of the School. Where it has proved necessary, specialist legal advice has been sought. To assist in the delivery of physical facilities, professional advice has been taken from a range of consultants, as well as employing contractors.

Performance against Objectives

Objective 1: masterplan review

The objective to review the Masterplan was influenced by the continuing challenges of the pandemic, and the need to review Masterplan projects in that context. The Foundation considered a number of options in respect of how it could best assist the School. These discussions concluded with a decision to recommence the new girls’ boarding house project which had been paused in the initial response to the pandemic. This was on the basis of an assessment by the School that the demand for boarding places remained strong. Second, the Trustees considered whether they could assist the School by funding the next scheduled Masterplan project, the refurbishment of Claridge House, a project which would have been funded by the School. On balance it was assessed that the project was not a priority and could not be achieved without detriment to the Foundation business plan. In respect of a third project, the Foundation undertook to assist with the refurbishment of Girls’ International House. Following consideration in September 2021 it was agreed that provision of a new Girls’ International House was the preferred option and the Foundation has agreed to support a new build through a fundraising campaign.

The new girls’ boarding house project was commenced in spring 2021 and is due for completion in summer 2023. The new boarding house will accommodate 60 additional students and is scheduled to welcome its first boarders in September 2023. The project had been paused at the request of School Governors to enable the School to focus on its response to the Covid-

Page 3

SEVENOAKS SCHOOL FOUNDATION

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2021

19 pandemic. Following review at the end of 2020 the project was resumed as demand for places at the School remains strong. The new boarding house will generate additional income for the School and further broaden student diversity and international reach.

Objective 2: campaign focus

The Campaign for Sevenoaks School has exceeded its target of £15m reaching £16.8 million in 2020/21. The campaign is now in its stewardship phase wherein the focus is to ensure fulfilment of the £1.6 million in pledges which are due through to 2023.

Foundation Trustees consult with School Governors about strategic priorities for the campaign via a joint Consultation Forum. Discussions continue to focus on the strategic balance the School needs to achieve between investment in facilities and broadening access. The School is finalising its new strategy including an emphasis on broadening access by developing the School’s programme of free and assisted places for academically talented students. Discussion of the development of an endowment fund by the Foundation to support this ambition have commenced and will continue in 2021/22. The Foundation is continuing to assess the impact of the pandemic nationally and globally and the inevitable impact on fundraising.

Objective 3: allocating resources

The Foundation Trustees took the decision to pivot its strategic emphasis in response to the pandemic, to focus on supporting the School’s Covid-19 response. The Foundation launched a Sevenoaks Covid-19 Appeal with three priorities: to help the School to protect the health, safety and welfare of its students and staff; to provide hardship bursaries to students whose families were experiencing severe financial hardship; and, to safeguard free and assisted places for academically talented students from lower income families. The appeal has raised in excess of £450,000. The Foundation Trustees also agreed to hold property rental levels at their current levels for the next three years, which will assist the School’s revenue position following some of the pressures arising from the pandemic. These included cost of Covid prevention measures, loss of income for Summer School Programmes and funding of fee rebates for parents.

Despite the pandemic, the Foundation also continued to successfully solicit gifts to support the School’s objective to broaden access through free and assisted places and, looking ahead, the Foundation’s intention is to ensure fundraising priorities align with the new School strategy.

Objective 4: philanthropic culture

The pandemic had a significant impact on the Foundation’s engagement programmes, particularly with parents and alumni. The Foundation continued to communicate with parents and alumni through termly e-newsletters and weekly social media posts. Unfortunately, many social events and reunions had to be postponed but plans are being developed to resume these in summer 2022.

Objective 5: relationships

Throughout the pandemic, the Foundation has endeavoured to maintain regular contact and stewardship of the Foundation’s benefactors. The Executive Director of Advancement, Headmaster and Foundation Chairman have maintained contact with key benefactors both in person and via video conferencing, and it is hoped the Headmaster will have further opportunities to meet benefactors in person in the new academic year.

The philanthropic impact of the Foundation and its donors was summarised in the 2020 Donor Impact Report, which was sent to all donors and current parents in summer 2021. The report summarised what had been achieved during the year, the impact of philanthropy and the emerging future priorities of the School.

Objective 6: compliance

A consultancy, Protecture, have been engaged to review our practices and make recommendations where necessary. Their report was received in May 2021 and an implementation plan has been developed. The plan includes the appointment of a Data Protection and Compliance Project Manager for a year to work through the recommendations outlined by Protecture.

New Trustees were appointed to commence in 2021/2022.

Grant-making Policy

Trustees implement the charity’s objects by raising funds from supporters and, where necessary, borrowing to support Sevenoaks School. The Foundation supports the School in three main ways; firstly, by leasing premises to the School for the

Page 4

SEVENOAKS SCHOOL FOUNDATION REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2021

provision of education, secondly by providing new facilities in line with the School’s masterplan, and when funds allow. Finally, and equally importantly, Trustees also provide funds to help widen access to Sevenoaks School. This may be in the form of bursaries or the provision of financial support for other school access and partnership programmes.

REVIEW OF ACTIVITIES

Activities during the year have revolved around the objectives for the year and on which we have reported in detail above (Performance against Objectives). Whilst some activities have inevitably been affected by the Covid-19 pandemic, there have been a number of significant achievements this year. These include, but are not limited to:

Public Benefit

The imperative of delivering public benefit is woven throughout the Foundation’s activities. The Foundation supports the School in being proactive in seeking to make a significant contribution for the benefit of its communities in accordance with its charitable objects and has taken careful consideration of the Charity Commission guidance in deciding what educational and ancillary activities the Foundation should support. The scope of the Foundation’s activities outlined above should therefore be seen through a lens of public benefit, including: advancing education; widening access to education through offering free and assisted places; and, sharing resources and expertise through community partnerships.

The facilities that the Foundation owns and leases to Sevenoaks School are used to educate the pupils of Sevenoaks School. They are also used to support community partnership programmes aimed at the pupils of local maintained schools, as well as the local community more generally. The Foundation supports and encourages Sevenoaks School to use the facilities for wider community benefit.

Trustees are committed to widening access to a Sevenoaks School education through the provision of free and assisted for academically talented students from low income families. Significant progress has been made in raising funds to widen access. A key objective for 2021/22 and beyond is to develop a significant endowment fund to support needs blind access to the School.

FINANCIAL REVIEW AND RESULTS FOR THE YEAR

Results

Income received during the year was £4,691,536. Of this, £1,254,606 (27%) came from donations, £3,254,582 (69%) from rental income and £182,348 (4%) from investment income and other income. Total resources expended, including depreciation, amounted to £3,635,370. After taking into account the unrealised gains on investments of £311,818, the net movement in funds for the financial year was £1,367,984 (2020: £1,822,344).

Investment Powers, Policy and Performance

The Clerk and the Director of Finance are empowered by Trustees to deposit short term monies with institutions holding the highest short-term ratings or in pooled funds for charities, not exceeding £1.5m with any one bank, building society or

investment house. The Foundation’s priority is to use the funds available to support bursaries and other access programmes as well as new building projects. Accordingly, the Foundation has limited funds to invest which it manages in-house with a view to providing a reasonable income stream, albeit this has proved difficult in a low interest rate environment.

Reserves Level and Policy

At the Balance Sheet date, the Foundation held funds of £42,127,514, of which £36,784,550 were unrestricted funds. If the value of fixed assets, including work in progress, less outstanding loans is taken from this figure, there are free reserves of £5,329,228, and it is the policy of the Foundation Trustees to apply these funds for the development of Sevenoaks School. Despite the COVID-19 pandemic, the Trustees consider the level of reserves to be appropriate. The Trustees will continue to keep the level of reserves under review.

Going Concern

The Trustees have reviewed the impact of Covid-19 on the Foundation’s operations and finances. Taking into consideration the projected cash flows and the funding facilities available to the Foundation, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the Foundation has adequate resources to continue its activities for the foreseeable future and consider that there are no material uncertainties over the Foundation’s financial viability. Accordingly, Trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.

FUTURE PLANS

The Trustees have set the following objectives for the financial year 2021/22:

Work on the above objectives may be subject to review depending on urgent operational priorities resulting from the Covid-19 outbreak.

FUNDRAISING RESPONSIBILITIES

The Sevenoaks School Foundation Trustees are aware of their responsibilities and obligations as outlined in Charity fundraising: a guide to trustee duties (CC20). Sevenoaks School Foundation is registered with the Fundraising Regulator (U.K.), the independent regulator of charitable fundraising. Being registered with the Fundraising Regulator means the charity is committed to its Fundraising Promise which outlines the charity’s commitment to donors and the public. The standards for fundraising are set out by the Fundraising Regulator (U.K.) Code of Fundraising Practice. As members of the Institute of Fundraising (U.K), the Institute of Development Professionals in Education and the Council for Advancement and Support of Education the Sevenoaks School Foundation subscribes to their respective guidance on all matters relating to ethical fundraising and in particular Fundraising Regulator (U.K.) Code of Fundraising Practice, including consideration of vulnerable individuals. The Sevenoaks School Foundation has also established its own Sevenoaks School Foundation Gift Acceptance Policy to guide and oversee staff and volunteers.

The Foundation has not, to-date, had any occasion where it has knowingly failed to comply with the Fundraising Regulator (U.K.) Code of Fundraising Practice or the Sevenoaks School Foundation Gift Acceptance Policy. Neither the charity, nor any person acting on its behalf for the purposes of fundraising, have received any complaints about fundraising activity.

The Clerk to Trustees and Director of Finance closely monitor the fundraising activities of the Sevenoaks School Foundation Office.

ACCOUNTING AND REPORTING RESPONSIBILITIES

Charity law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards) and applicable law.

Under charity law the Trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of its net incoming resources for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to:

The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the charity’s transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

Independent Auditor’s Report to the Trustees of Sevenoaks School Foundation

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Sevenoaks School Foundation (‘the charity’) for the year ended 31 July 2021 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, the Cash Flow Statement and notes to the financial statements, including 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 charity 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.

Conclusions relating to going concern

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustee's use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charity's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Other information

The trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report. The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. 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.

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 this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. 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.

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

Responsibilities of trustees

As explained more fully in the trustees’ responsibilities statement set out on page 7, the trustees 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 charity’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 charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor � s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

We have been appointed as auditor under section 151 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with the Acts and relevant regulations made or having effect thereunder.

Page 8

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 an auditor’s report 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.

Details of the extent to which the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations are set out below.

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 auditor’s report.

Extent to which the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We identified and assessed the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements from irregularities, whether due to fraud or error, and discussed these between our audit team members. We then designed and performed audit procedures responsive to those risks, including obtaining audit evidence sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks within which the charity operates, focusing on those laws and regulations that have a direct effect on the determination of material amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The laws and regulations we considered in this context were the Charities Act 2011, together with the Charities SORP (FRS 102). We assessed the required compliance with these laws and regulations as part of our audit procedures on the related financial statement items.

In addition, we considered provisions of other laws and regulations that do not have a direct effect on the financial statements but compliance with which might be fundamental to the charity’s ability to operate or to avoid a material penalty. We also considered the opportunities and incentives that may exist within the charity for fraud. The laws and regulations we considered in this context for the UK operations were health and safety legislation and employment legislation.

Auditing standards limit the required audit procedures to identify non-compliance with these laws and regulations to enquiry of the Trustees and other management and inspection of regulatory and legal correspondence, if any.

We identified the greatest risk of material impact on the financial statements from irregularities, including fraud, to be within the timing of recognition of income and the override of controls by management. Our audit procedures to respond to these risks included enquiries of management and the Finance Committee about their own identification and assessment of the risks of irregularities, sample testing on the posting of journals, reviewing accounting estimates for biases, reviewing regulatory correspondence with the Charity Commission and reading minutes of meetings of those charged with governance.

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 non-detection 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.

Use of our report

This report is made solely to the charity’s trustees, as a body, in accordance with Part 4 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charity’s trustees those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and the charity’s trustees as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

SEVENOAKS SCHOOL FOUNDATION

STATEMENT OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2021

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102), and the Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) - effective 1 January 2015.

The functional currency of the Foundation is considered to be GBP because that is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Foundation operates.

The accounts are drawn up on the historical cost basis of accounting, as modified by the revaluation of investments.

The accounts present the statement of financial activities (SOFA), the balance sheet and the cash flow statement for the charity.

The Foundation is a Public Benefit Entity registered as a charity in England and Wales. It was registered as a charity on 26 January 2004 (charity number: 307923). On 11 October 2017 an incorporated charity, The Friends of Sevenoaks School (Hong Kong) Limited, was set up. This is a subsidiary company of Sevenoaks School Foundation, but has not been consolidated in these accounts.

The financial statements of the Foundation are prepared in accordance with the (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2005 and the Statement of Recommended Practice "Accounting and Reporting by Charities" issued in 2005 and with applicable accounting standards. They are drawn up on the historical cost accounting basis except that investments held as fixed assets are carried at market value.

The accounts (financial statements) have been prepared to give a ‘true and fair’ view and have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a ‘true and fair view’. This departure has involved following the Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) issued on 16 July 2014 rather than the previous Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities which was effective from 1 April 2005 but which has since been withdrawn.

The Trustees have reviewed the impact of Covid-19 on the Foundation’s operations and finances. Taking into consideration the projected cash flows and funding facilities available to the Foundation, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the Foundation has adequate resources to continue its activities for the foreseeable future and consider that there are no material uncertainties over the Foundation’s financial viability. Accordingly, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.

Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty

In the application of the accounting policies, Trustees are required to make judgement, estimates, and assumptions about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and underlying assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affected current and future periods.

In the view of the trustees, no assumptions concerning the future or estimation uncertainty affecting assets or liabilities at the balance sheet date are likely to result in a material adjustment to their carrying amounts in the next financial year

The following accounting policies have been applied consistently in dealing with items which are considered material in relation to the School’s financial statements.

Rental and other income

Charges for services and use of premises are accounted for in the period in which the service is provided.

Donations

Donations received for the general purposes of the Foundation are credited to unrestricted funds. Donations subject to specific wishes of the donors are carried to the relevant restricted fund, or to endowed funds where the amount is required to be held as capital.

SEVENOAKS SCHOOL FOUNDATION

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2021

Expenditure

Expenditure is allocated to expense headings either on a direct cost basis or apportioned according to time spent. The irrecoverable element of VAT is included with the item of expense to which it relates.

Categories of expenditure included under the heading Education and grant making in the Statement of Financial Activities comprise the following:

Premises

Premises costs associated with buildings owned by the Foundation and which are leased to Sevenoaks School. The costs comprise depreciation, insurance and rent. Repairs and maintenance costs are carried by Sevenoaks School under the terms of the lease agreement.

Support costs

Costs incurred in supporting the running of the activities of the Foundation and not categorised elsewhere under charitable expenditure. Included in this category are governance costs, comprising the costs of complying with constitutional and statutory requirements, and finance costs relating to interest on bank loans to finance construction.

Fundraising Costs

Costs of the Foundation Office relating to fundraising: although the costs of fundraising are set against unrestricted funds, these resources are also employed in raising restricted funds.

Operating leases

Rentals payable are charged on a time basis over the term of the lease.

Pension schemes

For employees who joined the Foundation before March 2010, the Foundation contributed to the Local Government Pensions Scheme, which is a defined benefit scheme, under the administration of Sevenoaks School. The Trustees are satisfied that any asset or liability relating to the scheme would not be material to the Foundation’s Financial Statements.

With effect from 1 April 2010, new employees are only permitted to join a defined contribution Group Pension Plan. At the end of July 2016 there were 5 members of the Group Pension Plan.

Fixed assets

Capitalisation

Assets are capitalised only when their cost exceeds £5,000. Any purchases under this value are expensed immediately through the Statement of Financial Activities.

Depreciation

Freehold land and building work in progress are not depreciated. Depreciation of other assets is provided at rates to write off the excess of cost over estimated residual amount over their estimated useful lives as follows:

Years Buildings 50 Improvements and extensions 10

Financial Instruments

Financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at amortised cost with the exception of investments which are held at fair value. Financial assets held at amortised cost comprise cash at bank and in hand, together with trade and other debtors. A specific provision is made for debts for which recoverability is in doubt. Cash at bank and in hand is defined as all cash held in instant access and term deposit bank accounts. Financial liabilities held at amortised cost comprise all creditors except social security and other taxes and provisions.

Investments

Listed investments are valued at their market values as at the balance sheet date. Unrealised gains and losses arising on the revaluation of investments are credited or charged to the Statement of Financial Activities and are allocated to the appropriate Fund according to the “ownership” of the underlying assets.

The Foundation Capital represented the original endowment. Since 2014 one of the several aims of the current campaign is to raise further funds for the permanent endowment in order to help secure the financial independence of Sevenoaks School.

The Hands Bursary fund provides for means-tested bursaries for pupils of Sevenoaks School.

The McEuen Scholarship provides an opportunity for a pupil, who otherwise would not be able to come, to take up a place at Sevenoaks School.

The Centre for Innovation is to fund a Centre for Innovation in Sevenoaks School.

All funds represent monies given for the specific purposes, as described.

The Bursary Fund provides for means-tested bursaries for students at Sevenoaks School.

The Beardmore Bursary fund is to be used for the benefit of a local primary school boy or girl whose financial circumstances are such that they would be unable to otherwise afford an education at Sevenoaks School.

The STSF Centre fund is a restricted fund for the Science and Technology and Sixth Form building. This building was completed in 2018 but pledged monies continued to be received after completion. The transfer of £2.6m from the restricted fund to unrestricted funds reflects this timing difference.

The Campaign for Sevenoaks School fund supports Sevenoaks School’s strategic priorities.
