## **Governors' Report**
The Governors present their report and financial statements for the year ended 31 August 2021.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the financial statements and comply with the School's governing document, the Companies Act 2006 and "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 UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019)".
## **Objectives and activities**
## _Objects and aims_
The objectives of the School are that the Charity shall, for the benefit of the public, be to advance education in particular by the running of one or more independent schools for the benefit of the community at large. The school’s aims are entirely in line with these objects.
These objects are met through the activity of operating and developing All Hallows (Cranmore Hall) School (The School). The School is for boys and girls aged 3 to 13 which includes day and boarding provision. There has been no change in these activities during the year.
Our mission is to provide a secure, happy and inclusive environment where children will develop the inner confidence and self-esteem necessary to flourish in our rapidly changing world. Whilst we protect and nurture our children, we also challenge and extend them in order to build their ability to thrive as adults in the future.
We strive to ensure that individual minds are broadened, and perspectives widened. We encourage learning, independence of thought and the cultivation of self-belief, skills, wisdom and curiosity.
We are preparing each child to live life to the full, encouraging them to live responsibly and thoughtfully and to embrace, with energy and enthusiasm, the great opportunities that lie ahead. It is our sincere desire that each child will use their compassion, knowledge, passions and energies to make the world a better place – and believe they can do so. Every child has an inherent value, which is exceptional and exclusive to them.
The aims and objectives for this reporting period, and for the future, remain the same.

## **All Hallows's Aims**
## _Intellectual_
Through the school’s teaching and learning, we aim to promote each pupil’s intellectual character, cultivating their capacity to combine thinking skills with knowledge, confidence and self-esteem, to believe in the legitimacy of their own thoughts, to speak their mind articulately (but change it when required), to contest poor thinking and prejudice assertively, and enjoy the challenge of mental sparring. We foster intellectual risk-taking and curiosity, independence, resilience and effective learning habits within an ambitious, supportive learning community where individual learning profiles are nurtured and celebrated, and where all children are encouraged to strive to achieve their very best.
## _Personal_
We aim to instil an understanding, appreciation and love of healthy lifestyle choices by offering a wide range of personal development opportunities through sports, music, drama and an extensive array of activities to supplement and enhance classroom learning. Every aspect of school life is seen as a learning opportunity and a chance to promote the development of the whole child.
## _Creative_
We encourage children to take a creative approach to all that they do. We aim to foster diversity, critical thinking, imaginative insights and fresh ideas through ensuring children are in touch with things that inspire and excite them. We encourage children to express themselves, to collaborate, to exchange ideas and build collective solutions to complex problems.
## _Emotional_
Happiness, confidence and self-esteem are key to living a fulfilled life and underpin great learning. We strive to develop children’s emotional intelligence, encouraging resilience, effective communication skills, empathy, forgiveness and respect for others. We want our children to develop their global awareness and social responsibility, to embrace energetically and contribute to the communities and environments in which they live.
## _Spiritual_
We aim to awaken the children spiritually through the integration of Catholic Christian principles into the school’s everyday life, the provision of warm relationships, prayer, worship and opportunities for reflection and contemplation.

## **All Hallows (Cranmore Hall) School Trust Limited**
## **Governors' Report**
Alongside the fulfilment of these interconnected themes, with a close collaboration between home and school, we seek to achieve the successful transfer to the most appropriate senior school for each of our children, taking into account their interests, strengths and character.
We are an equal opportunity organisation and are committed to a working environment that is free from any form of discrimination on the grounds of colour, race, ethnicity, religion, sex, sexual orientation or disability. We will make reasonable adjustments to meet the needs of staff or pupils who are, or become, disabled.
The School uses its resources to fund as many bursaries as possible, in the belief that good education is a public benefit as well as a benefit to the individuals concerned. We also continue to develop links with the local and wider community, some examples of which are as follows:
- Provision of teacher and teaching resources for Sang’a School in Kenya;
- Use of school forest by local community for Forest School training and professional development;
- Use of school swimming pool by Frome Swim Club;
- Use of cricket nets and wickets by local clubs;
- Provision of tennis facilities and coaching to local community;
- Provision of PE facilities to local primary school including transport;
- All Hallows runs an ‘All Hallows, All Yours’ programme which offers local education establishments the chance to utilise our facilities and staff expertise.
As part of the school’s Catholic ethos, All Hallows has a history of charitable giving, supporting a huge range of exciting and innovative charitable endeavours throughout the school year. The schools supports a number of local, national and international charities - ranging from the Children’s Hospice South West to emergency appeals from the DEC (Disaster Emergency Committee). The children love to participate in the House Charities day - held in the summer term - in addition to taking part in the various other appeals that take place through the school year. This year's charities also included the Genesis Trust, Time is Precious, Children-in-Need and the Royal British Legion. The school also has a link school in Sang’a, Kenya, which is an ongoing beneficiary of our charity work.
## _**Fundraising disclosures**_
The School does not carry out any fundraising activities.

## **Governors' Report**
## _**Public benefit**_
In setting the objectives and planning the activities, the Governors have given careful consideration to the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit and, in particular, to its supplementary public benefit guidance on advancing education and on feecharging.
## **Achievements and performance**
## **Academic**
In the Academic Year 2020-21 our Year 8 pupils have achieved 22 scholarships to 10 different senior schools from a cohort of 48 pupils. These scholarships include Academic, Allrounder, Sport, Music, Art and Product Design/CDT and 2 Headmaster’s award and the Francis Dix All-rounder award. This is a stunning achievement, particularly as the school is largely non-selective on entry and with the challenges of the global pandemic.
Due to the impact of Covid-19, we have held a mixture of online and onsite learning, as restrictions allowed. Lessons and teaching were adapted to meet with needs of social distancing and online learning was provided via Firefly and Teams. The staff, pupils and parents all adapted to the new way of teaching and learning and our success at scholarship and entry to senior schools is evidence of our community’s ability to achieve the desired outcomes despite the challenges faced.
## **Successful Entry to Senior Schools**
Working closely in partnership with parents, the school achieves the successful transfer to the most appropriate senior school for each of our children, taking into account their interests, strengths and character. The fact that all children since 2011 have gained entry to their first-choice senior school at the transfer stage and the wide number of schools that pupils move on to bear testament to this statement.

## **Governors' Report**
## **Co-curricular activities**
## _**Music & Drama**_
As per other areas of school life, the Performing Arts programme has had to adapt its usual events to meet social distancing and Government imposed restriction. During the Michaelmas Term peri music lessons and Speech and Drama lessons took place online, while academic music classes continued in school. Remembrance Mass was held, socially distanced, in the Chapel. Sadly, due to lockdown, Lent Terms events were cancelled with lessons moving online for the majority of the term. During the Summer term the school purchased 10 ukuleles for Year 2 and upwards. This has allowed the children to rotate within lessons, to have more space when working in keyboard-based groups, but also to learn new skills. A boarders’ band was developed, and the school was able to hold some outside socially distanced summer concerts and music events.
## _**Sport**_
During lockdown, remote learning and online Games lessons were offered to Years 5-8, whilst opportunities were also presented to those into Reception to Year 4 to complete in their own time. The school came together to take part in a virtual Strava competition against other prep schools, whereby walking, running, or cycling we covered the astonishing distance of 3,025.2km. The school made it there and (almost) back in just 7 days.
During the Summer term the school was able to run fixtures against several other local schools, including Hockey, Cricket, Rounders, Tennis and Athletics. The programme has also been supplemented with athletics where one pupil became IAPS champion in Javelin and Discus, respectively.
## **Developments and Maintenance**
Due to Covid-19 few major developments have taken place this year. Those that have were:
- Continued work and maintenance of fire detection and protection, particularly in dormitory areas and the main house;
- Emergency lighting has been updated and replacement of outdoor lighting;
- New EYFS playground safety flooring and equipment installed;
- New carpets fitted in various locations;
- Redecoration of various classrooms;
- Installation of new Antivirus and Anti Malware across the network.

## _**Factors outside of the charity's control affecting objectives**_
There have been no significant factors which affect the achievements of our objectives.
## **Financial review**
Despite the fall in average pupils during the year (from 260 to 254), fee income (before Government grants) increased 3.2% or £99,388 to £3,170,122 (2020 £3,070,724) - see note 4.
Although Government grants (furlough) were £357,442 lower in 2021 than in 2020, costs remained tightly controlled. Expenditure on charitable activities (note 7) reduced by £418,713 during the year. Staff costs represented £336,531 of this reduction in expenditure, with full time equivalent staff reducing from 113 to 97 - see note 11.
Overall the deficit (after depreciation and interest) for the year was £119,537 compared to a deficit in the prior year of £283,656.
The reconciliation of net deficit for the year to "underlying" Earnings before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortisation (EBITDA) is as follows:
|Depreciation and Amortisation (EBITDA) is as follows:|||

COVID continued to impact the School's financial performance in the year, however it is pleasing to report an improvement in the School's financial performance which is continuing into the current academic year.
## **Details of bursary and scholarship awards**
This year the School awarded scholarships, bursaries and fees assistance of £616,369 (2020: £761,620) from unrestricted and designated funds. They provided assistance to 102 of our pupils.

|Restricted fund|(10,014)|(5,550)|
|**Free reserves of the school**|(1,254,783)|(1,240,341)|
## _**Reserves policy**_
The School has total funds £425,830 but has no free reserves as, in accordance with the Governors’ policy, all previous surpluses have been reinvested for the school’s charitable purposes. The Governors’ aim is to replenish reserves from future surpluses in order to continue the programme of enhancing school facilities and improving educational provision.
The Trustees have considered the risks and uncertainties of operating as an independent educational establishment and have strategies in place to ensure, as far as practicable, that the level of free reserves is commensurate with the School’s requirements.
## _**Fixed assets**_
The freehold land and buildings of the School were revalued in 1980. The governors are of the opinion that the current open market value on an existing use basis is in excess of book value.
Information relating to fixed assets is set out in note 13 to the financial statements.
## _**Financial effect of significant events**_
The Covid-19 pandemic continued to impact parental incomes which resulted in the school providing continuing parental support where required.
## _**Investment policy and objectives**_
The investment policy of the School is to hold any surplus funds in low risk, accessible interest earning accounts.

## **Governors' Report**
## **Risks**
The major risks to which the School is exposed, as identified by the Governors, have been reviewed and systems have been established to mitigate those risks. The School is not exposed to any price risk, credit risk, liquidity risk or cash flow risk.
The following are the principal risks and uncertainties facing the school:
- Impact on reputation of event, fraud, accident, media coverage etc;
- Maintenance in pupil numbers affecting liquidity and cash flows;
- Maintenance of effective senior leadership.
The following is a summary of the School's plans and strategies for managing those risks:
- Compliance with regulatory requirements; ongoing self-evaluation of teaching, curriculum etc; SWOT analysis; regular review of Disaster Recovery Plan; compliance with Child Protection policies and procedures; Governor oversight;
- Regular Governor self-evaluation; regular Governor training; regular Governor and subcommittee meetings;
- The school operates an effective marketing strategy to maintain/increase pupil numbers.
## **Plans for future periods**
## _**Aims and key objectives for future periods**_
The longer term aim of the School is to:
- Ensure that the School continues to meet its legal objectives;
- Maintain a high level of teaching, both academic and non-academic so that all pupils develop to their maximum potential;
- Maintain a high level of pupil recruitment and retention;
- Maintain the fabric of the School’s buildings and estate with a high level of ongoing maintenance and;
- Expand its reach in extending public benefit to the wider community.
We use historical data and trends (along with other information gathering and research) as the basis for forecasting pupil numbers. The number of pupils at the school dictates the allocation of resources and so our long term strategic plan and forecasts may change depending on factors such as uncertainty in the wider economy or Government imposed statutory or regulatory changes.

## **Structure, governance and management**
## _**Nature of governing document**_
The All Hallows (Cranmore Hall) School Trust Limited (Company Limited by Guarantee), the Charity, is referred to throughout this report as the School.
The School is a charitable company limited by guarantee, incorporated on 3 May 1962 and registered as a charity on 18 September 1962. The guarantors are the members who are the Governors to the extent of £10 each.
The governing documents are the memorandum and articles of association filed at Companies House. The 2014 amendments were not adopted by the Charity Commission so it is the 2004 articles that stand.
## **Trustees and officers**
The Governors, who are also the directors for the purpose of company law, and who served during the year and up to the date of signature of the financial statements were:
Governors: Mrs T Cotterell M B Drummond Smith Mrs M G Eyles J N Weir J G Nicol P M Graves N Morgan J M Alexandroff (resigned 10 July 2021)
## _**Recruitment and appointment of governors**_
The Governors of the School are a self-appointed body. Service on the board is for a period of three years, with a maximum term of four years. Retiring Governors can be re-elected. When vacancies arise on the board an appraisal is made of the current skills mix and, as far as possible, new Governors are sought to fill skill gaps.
None of the Governors has any beneficial interest in the company. All of the Governors are members of the company and guarantee to contribute £10 in the event of a winding up.
## _**Organisational structure**_
The day to day running of the School is delegated to the Headmaster.
Page 11
## **All Hallows (Cranmore Hall) School Trust Limited**
## **Governors' Report**
## _**Induction and training of governors**_
New Governors are provided with key constitutional and financial information and encouraged to spend time with the Headmaster so that they are fully briefed on the School. The training requirements of the Governors are kept under review.
## **Relationships with related parties**
Apart from the loans disclosed in note 17, no Governor has any material interest in contracts with the School either directly or indirectly.
## **Statement of Governors' Responsibilities**
The governors (who are also the directors of All Hallows (Cranmore Hall) School Trust Limited for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the governors' report and the financial statements in accordance with the United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice) and applicable law and regulations.
Company law requires the governors to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under company law the governors 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 charitable company and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the governors are required to:
- select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently;
- observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;
- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
- state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; 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 governors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the charitable company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. 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.

## **All Hallows (Cranmore Hall) School Trust Limited**
## **Independent Auditor's Report to the Members of All Hallows (Cranmore Hall) School Trust Limited**
## **Opinion**
We have audited the financial statements of All Hallows (Cranmore Hall) School Trust Limited (the 'charity') for the year ended 31 August 2021, which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, Balance Sheet, 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 United Kingdom Accounting Standards, comprising Charities SORP - FRS 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and applicable law (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
In our opinion the financial statements:
- give a true and fair view of the state of the charity's affairs as at 31 August 2021 and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for the year then ended;
- have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and
- have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.
## **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 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 the provisions available for small entities, in the circumstances set out in note to the financial statements, 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.
Page 14
## **All Hallows (Cranmore Hall) School Trust Limited**
## **Independent Auditor's Report to the Members of All Hallows (Cranmore Hall) School Trust Limited**
## **Conclusions relating to going concern**
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the governors 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 original financial statements were authorised for issue.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the governors with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.
## **Other information**
The governors are responsible for the other information. 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.
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.
## **Opinion on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006**
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
- the information given in the Governors' Report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
- the Governors' Report has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
## **Matters on which we are required to report by exception**
In the light of our knowledge and understanding of the charity and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Governors' Report.
Page 15
## **All Hallows (Cranmore Hall) School Trust Limited**
## **Independent Auditor's Report to the Members of All Hallows (Cranmore Hall) School Trust Limited**
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
- adequate accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or
- the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
- certain disclosures of governors remuneration specified by law are not made; or
- we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.
## **Responsibilities of governors**
As explained more fully in the Statement of Governors' Responsibilities (set out on page 12), the governors 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 governors 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 governors 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 governors either intend to liquidate the charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
## **Auditor 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 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.
The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:
Page 16
## **All Hallows (Cranmore Hall) School Trust Limited**
## **Independent Auditor's Report to the Members of All Hallows (Cranmore Hall) School Trust Limited**
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud, is detailed below.
We gained an understanding of the legal and regulatory framework applicable to the company and the industry in which it operates, and considered the risk of acts by the company that were contrary to applicable laws and regulations, including fraud. We designed audit procedures to respond to the risk, recognising that the risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from error, as fraud may involve deliberate concealment by, for example, forgery or intentional misrepresentations, or through collusion.
We focussed on laws and regulations which could give rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements, including, but not limited to, the Companies Act 2006 and UK tax legislation. Our tests included agreeing the financial statement disclosures to underlying supporting documentation and enquiries with management. There are inherent limitations in the audit procedures described above and, the further removed non-compliance with laws and regulations is from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, the less likely we would become aware of it. We did not identify any key audit matters relating to irregularities, including fraud. As in all our audits, we also addressed the risk of management override of internal controls, including testing journals and evaluating whether there was evidence of bias by the directors that represented a risk of material misstatement due to fraud
A further description of our responsibilities is available on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor’s report.
## **Use of our report**
This report is made solely to the charitable company's governors, 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 charity's governors 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 charitable company and its governors as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

## **All Hallows (Cranmore Hall) School Trust Limited**
## **Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 August 2021**
## **1 Accounting policies**
## **Company information**
All Hallows (Cranmore Hall) School Trust Limited is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is School Trust Limited, Cranmore Hall, Cranmore, Shepton Mallet, Somerset, BA4 4SF.
## **Accounting convention**
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the School's governing document, the Companies Act 2006 and "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 UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019)". The School is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the School. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, modified to include the revaluation of freehold properties and to include investment properties and certain financial instruments at fair value. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.
## **Going concern**
In light of the current coronavirus pandemic, the governors have reviewed likely future developments and remain of the opinion that there is no reason to believe that the School will have to cease operating as a result of inadequate financial resources, or any other foreseeable event, within a period of at least 12 months from the date of the approval of these accounts.
As shown on the statement of financial activities, the net movement in funds of the School was a deficit for the year. At the year end, the balance sheet shows the School has net current liabilities. However, the Governors are confident the School has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the Governors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.
Page 24
## **All Hallows (Cranmore Hall) School Trust Limited**
## **Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 August 2021**
## **Charitable funds**
Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the Governors in furtherance of their charitable objectives unless the funds have been designated for other purposes.
Designated funds comprise funds which have been set aside at the discretion of the Governors for specific purposes. The purposes and uses of the designated funds are set out in the notes to the accounts.
Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the accounts.
## **Incoming resources**
Income is recognised when the School is legally entitled to receive it, after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received. Fees receivable are stated after deducting scholarships and bursaries.
Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the School has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.
The School offers parents the opportunity to pay for up to five years tuition fees in advance. Such amounts are referred to as advanced fee deposits and should be distinguished from fees due on the 1st day of term but paid early. Advanced fee deposits are held until the pupil joins the School whereupon the fees for each School term are charged against the remaining balance and taken to income.
Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the School; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the Bank.
Income is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and represents amounts receivable for goods and services provided in the normal course of business, net of discounts, VAT and other sales related taxes.
Page 25
## **All Hallows (Cranmore Hall) School Trust Limited**
## **Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 August 2021**
## **Resources expended**
Resources expended are accounted for in the year in which they are incurred and are allocated to expense headings either on a direct cost basis, or apportioned according to time spent. The irrecoverable element of VAT is included within the item of expense to which it relates.
Depreciation has been allocated between the charitable activities pro rata to the original cost per the fixed asset register.
Where an item of expenditure falls directly within one cost category it is attributed to that category only. Where expenditure involves more than one category it is apportioned on a reasonable and justifiable basis.
Supplies of games equipment, books, stationery and sundry materials are written off when the expenditure is incurred.
Governance costs represent the costs associated with the governance arrangements of the charity as meeting the statutory requirements of the School as a company and charity as opposed to the costs of running the charitable School activities.
## **Tangible fixed assets**
Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses. All purchases of a capital nature with a cost in excess of £1,000 are included in tangible fixed assets.
## **Depreciation and amortisation**
Depreciation is provided on tangible fixed assets so as to write off the cost or valuation, less any estimated residual value, over their expected useful economic life as follows:
|**Asset class**|**Depreciation method and rate**|
|---|---|
|Freehold land|Not depreciated|
|Freehold buildings|1-20% per annum|
|Furniture, fixtures and equipment|10-33% per annum|
|Mowers and motor vehicles|10-33% per annum|
Page 26
## **All Hallows (Cranmore Hall) School Trust Limited**
## **Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 August 2021**
The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in net income/(expenditure) for the year.
The freehold land and buildings of the School were revalued in 1980. The governors are of the opinion that the current open market value on an existing use basis is in excess of book value.
The School has taken advantage of the transitional arrangements of FRS 102 - Section 17 Property, Plant and Equipment not to update its valuation of land and buildings.
## **Impairment of fixed assets**
At each reporting end date, the School 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).
Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted.
If the recoverable amount of an asset is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised immediately in income/(expenditure) for the year, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease.
Recognised impairment losses are reversed if, and only if, the reasons for the impairment loss have ceased to apply. Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised immediately, unless the relevant asset is carried in at a revalued amount, in which case the reversal of the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation increase.

## **Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 August 2021**
## **Stock**
Stocks are stated at the lower of cost or net realisable value. Cost comprises direct materials and, where applicable, direct labour costs and those overheads that have been incurred in bringing the stocks to their present location and condition. Items held for distribution at no or nominal consideration are measured at the lower of replacement cost and cost.
Net realisable value is the estimated selling price less all estimated costs of completion and costs to be incurred in marketing, selling and distribution.
In general, cost is determined on a first in, first out basis, Provision is made where necessary for slow moving and defective stocks.
## **Cash and cash equivalents**
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.
## **Financial instruments**
## _**Classification**_
The School has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.
Financial instruments are recognised in the School's balance sheet when the School becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
## _**Basic financial assets**_
Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.
Page 28
## **All Hallows (Cranmore Hall) School Trust Limited**
## **Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 August 2021**
## _**Basic financial liabilities**_
Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.
Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of operations from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
## _**Derecognition of financial liabilities**_
Financial liabilities are derecognised when the School’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.
## **Employee benefits**
The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received.
Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the School is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.
## **Retirement benefits**
Retirement benefits to employees of the school are provided by the Teachers’ Pension Scheme (‘TPS’), The Aviva Pension Trust for Independent Schools (APTIS) and the non academic pension staff pension scheme.
Page 29
## **All Hallows (Cranmore Hall) School Trust Limited**
## **Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 August 2021**
The TPS is an unfunded scheme and contributions are calculated so as to spread the cost of pensions over employees’ working lives with the school in such a way that the pension cost is a substantially level percentage of current and future pensionable payroll. The contributions are determined by the Government Actuary on the basis of quadrennial valuations using a prospective unit credit method. As stated in note 21, the TPS is a multiemployer scheme and there is insufficient information available to use defined benefit accounting. The TPS is therefore treated as a defined contribution scheme for accounting purposes and the contributions recognised in the period to which they relate.
The APTIS is a defined contribution pension scheme which can be used by all ISBA member schools for their teaching staff.
The non academic pension staff pension scheme arrangement is a defined contribution scheme where the assets of the schemes are held separately from those of the School in an independently administered fund. Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit schemes are charged as an expense as they fall due.
## **Leases**
Rentals payable under operating leases, including any lease incentives received, are charged as an expense on a straight line basis over the term of the relevant lease.
## **Tax status**
The School, being a registered charity, is exempt from any taxation with the exception of Value Added Tax.
## **Government grants**
Government grants are recognised at the fair value of the asset received or receivable when there is reasonable assurance that the grant conditions will be met and the grants will be received.
Government grants relating to turnover are recognised as income over the periods when the related costs are incurred. Grants relating to an asset are recognised in income systematically over the asset's expected useful life. If part of such a grant is deferred it is recognised as deferred income rather than being deducted from the asset's carrying amount.

## **All Hallows (Cranmore Hall) School Trust Limited**
## **Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 August 2021**
## **2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements**
In the application of the School’s accounting policies, the Governors are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated 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 where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
## **Key sources of estimation uncertainty**
The estimates and assumptions which have significantrisk of causing material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities are as follows:
## _Estimated useful lives of tangible fixed assets_
In determining the estimated useful life the school considers the expected physical wear and tear of the asset that could lead to obsolescence of the asset. Each year the school reviews that above to establish if there is any change in the expected useful life of tangible assets.

Land and buildings with a carrying amount of £1,638,960 were revalued at 22 February 1980 by King Milles & Co (Chartered Surveyors) independent valuers not connected with the School on the basis of market value. The valuation conforms to International Valuation Standards and was based on recent market transactions on arm's length terms for similar properties.
The valuation reported was £272,000 including £85,000 apportioned to the land. Depreciation of freehold buildings for the year has been based on the revalued amount. Based on cost, the charge would have been lower by £1,870.
At 31 August 2021, had the revalued assets been carried at historic cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, their carrying amount would have been approximately £193,460 (2020 - £195,330).
The property was valued at £2,500,000 by Knight Frank on 30 September 2019.

## **Prior year adjustment**
On review of the company's fixed asset register, it became clear that an adjustment was required where the cost and depreciation of previously disposed assets had not been adjusted in the financial statements.
This adjustment has also created a small reduction in the deficit for the previous year of £1,424.

Included in amounts payable after more than one year is a loan advanced by two of the current governors and two ex-governors.
Also included within both loans due within one year and more than one year is a Coronavirus Bounce Back Loan. The loan is secured by the Government and the first 12 months interest has been paid by way of a grant from the Government.
Another loan is split between amounts payable within one year, and after one year. This loan is secured on property owned by the charity, is repayable over 5 years, and has an interest rate of 5.5% above base rate.
During the year the charity breached one of its bank loan covenants, for which the carrying amount of the loan, at the reporting date, was £370,473. The charity has communicated the breach with the bank concerned. Prior to the signing of the accounts, the bank has acknowledged the technical breach and indicated that they will extend their support until at least the end of February 2023.

## **Prior year adjustment**
On review, the loans from governors and ex governors are not repayable until the bank loan has been repaid. As such, a reclassification of the prior year balance has been carried out to correctly reflect the loans being repayable after more than one year.

## **21 Pension and other schemes**
## **Teachers' Pension Scheme**
The Teachers' Pension Scheme (TPS) is a statutory, contributory, defined benefit scheme, governed by the Teachers' Pensions Regulations 2014. Membership is automatic for fulltime teachers in schools and, from 1 January 2007, automatic for teachers in part-time employment following appointment or a change of contract, although they are able to opt out.
The TPS is an unfunded scheme and members contribute on a ‘pay as you go’ basis – these contributions along with those made by employers are credited to the Exchequer. Retirement and other pension benefits are paid by public funds provided by Parliament.

## **Valuation of the Teachers' Pension Scheme**
The Government Actuary, using normal actuarial principles, conducts a formal actuarial review of the TPS in accordance with the Public Service Pensions (Valuations and Employer Cost Cap) Directions 2014 published by HM Treasury every 4 years. The aim of the review is to specify the level of future contributions. Actuarial scheme valuations are dependent on assumptions about the value of future costs, design of benefits and many other factors. The latest actuarial valuation of the TPS was carried out as at 31 March 2016. The valuation report was published by the Department for Education on 5 March 2019. The key elements of the valuation and subsequent consultation are:
• employer contribution rates set at 23.68% of pensionable pay (including a 0.08% administration levy)
• total scheme liabilities (pensions currently in payment and the estimated cost of future benefits) for service to the effective date of £218,100 million, and notional assets (estimated future contributions together with the notional investments held at the valuation date) of £196,100 million giving a notional past service deficit of £22,000 million
• the SCAPE rate, set by HMT, is used to determine the notional investment return. The current SCAPE rate is 2.4% above the rate of CPI. assumed real rate of return in 2.4% in excess of prices and 2% in excess of earnings. The rate of real earnings growth is assumed to be 2.2%. The assumed nominal rate of return including earnings growth is 4.45%.
The next valuation result is due to be implemented from 1 April 2023.
The employer’s pension costs paid to TPS in the period amounted to £102,805 (2020: £321,055).
A copy of the valuation report and supporting documentation is on the Teachers’ Pensions website.
Under the definitions set out in FRS 102, the TPS is a multi-employer pension scheme. The school has accounted for its contributions to the scheme as if it were a defined contribution scheme. The school has set out above the information available on the scheme.

## **APTIS Scheme**
The Aviva Pension Trust for Independent Schools (APTIS) is a defined contribution pension scheme which can be used by all ISBA member schools for their teaching staff. It is set up as part of Aviva’s “Master Trust” — a trust-based pension arrangement managed by independent professional trustees. It is available for ISBA members and such other organisations as are admitted by mutual agreement.
From 1st September 2020, membership is automatic for teachers commencing employment at All Hallows School. Teachers who were currently employed at that date also had the option to join the APTIS scheme.
Employer contribution rates are set at 16.4%
The employer’s pension costs paid to APTIS in the period amounted to £103,753.
## **Non-academic Staff Pension Scheme**
Non-academic staff are entitled to contribute to a pension scheme known as The Pension Trust Growth Plan (the Plan). This is a multi-employer pension plan.
Contributions paid into the Plan up to and including September 2001 were converted to defined amounts of pension payable from normal retirement dates. From October 2001 contributions were invested in personal funds which have a capital guarantee and which are converted to pension on retirement, either within the Plan or by the purchase of an annuity. The capital is guaranteed through investing in short term, high quality securities and deposits. It is not possible in the normal course of events to identify on a reasonable and consistent basis the share of the underlying assets and liabilities of this belonging to the individual participating employers. Accordingly, in line with the requirements of FRS 102, the accounting charge for the year represents only the School's employer contributions payable.
The latest formal valuation of the Plan was performed at 30 September 2020. The valuation of the Plan was performed by a professionally qualified Actuary using the Projected Unit Method. The market value of the Plan's assets at the valuation date was £780 million and the Plan's Technical Provisions (i.e. past service liabilities) were £928 million. The valuation therefore revealed a shortfall of assets compared with the value of liabilities of £148 million, equivalent to a funding level of 96%.
Both the School and the employees paid contributions at a rate of between 3% to 6% of member salaries during the year. The pension charge for the year includes contributions payable to the scheme of £43,433 (2020: £47,835) and the outstanding contributions at the balance sheet date were £13,730 (2020: £6,527).
