KING EDWARD VI GRAMMAR SCHOOL, NORWICH INDEPENDENT AUDITORS, REPORTTO THE TRUSTEE OF KING EDWARD VI GRAMMAR SCHOOL, NORWICH (CONTINUED) Auditors, responsibilitles for the audit of the financial stalements We have been appointed as auditor under section 151 of Ihe Charities Act 2011 and report In accordance with the Acl and relevant regulations made or havlng effect thereurider. Our objectlves are to oblain reasonable assurance about whether the financial staternents as a whole are free from material misstatemenl, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an Auditors, 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 misslalement when it exists. Misstatements can arlse from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in Ihe aggregate, Ihey could reasonably be expected lo influence the economic decisions ol users taken on the basis of thes8 financial st8tement8. Irregularities, induding fraud, are Instances of non-compliance wilh lav￿ and r8gulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misslatemenls in rospecl of I￿egular1tie$, including fraud. The 8Xtent to which our proceduT8S are capable of detecting irregularities, includlng fraud Is detailed bek)w'. Our approach to idenllfylng and 8ssesslng the rlsk of material mlsstatemenl in respect of irregularities, induding fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulalions, Included the folb)wing: Enqulries with management, the bursar and the Council of Management about any known or suspected instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations, accidents in Ihe workplace. safeguarding breeches, data breaches. polential litigation or claims and fraud., Reviewing legal and professional fees to confirm matters where the Company engaged lawyers during th8 year., Reviewlng financial statement disclosures and testlng to supporting documentation to assess compliance with applicable laws and regulations; Reviewing meeting minutes of executlve, development and education committees, Councll of Management meeting mlnutes and any relevanl Corresponden￿ with external authoritles. includlng regulators., Challenging assumptions and judgements made by management in their signlficanl accounting estimates, pariicularly around the acluarial assumplions used lo estimate the defined benefit pension scheme; and Auditing the risk of management override of controls, including through tesling journal entries and olher adjustments for approprialeness and evalualing the business ratlonale of any significant transactions outside the normal course of business. Due lo the inherent limitations of an audit. theTr Is a iisk that we will not detect all irregularities, including Ihose leading to a material misslatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation, This risk increases tha more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely lo become aware of instances of non-compliance. The rlsk Is also greater regardlng Irregularitles occurrTng due to fraud rather than error. as fraud Involves inlentlonal concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresenlalion.

The registered offic8 is 71a The Close. Notwich, Norfolk. NR14DD. A¢countlng policies 2.1 Basls of preparatlon of flnanelal statements The financial stalemenls have been prepared in accordance wlh the Charities SORP (FRS 102) Accounting and Reporting by Charitles.. Statement of Recommended Practice applicable lo charlties preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), Ihe Financial Repoiting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Irèland {FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011. The financial slatemenl8 have been prepared to give a 'true and fair, view and have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reporis) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a 'lrue and fair, view. This departure has involved following the Charilies SORP IFRS 102) revised October 2019 rather than the Accounting and Reportlng by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn. King Edward Vl Grammar School, Norwich meets the deflnltlon of a public benefit entlly under FRS 102. Assets and liabillties are initially recognised at hlslorlcal cost or transaction value unless olherwise stated in the relevanl accounting policy. The Consolidated Stalement of Financial Activities (SOFA) and Consolidated Balance Sheet consolidate the financial statements of the Group and its subsidlary undertaking. The results of the subsidiary are consolidated on a line by line basis. 2.2 Golng concern Management's going concern assessment takes into full consideration key data sets, including latest pupil numbers, projecled employment costs. freehold. leasehold, and maintenance requirements for the next 12 months and beyond. and known capital commrtments. 811ied to the latest 5-year cashflow models and other key performance indicators. The last Iwo years have seen slgnificant employment cost inflation with awards reflecting both Ihe macro inflalionary environment and pay award levels made within the wider education sector. Also impactful, the additional 5DA TPS (Teachers. Pension Scheme) Employer's Contribution levels from 1s1 April 2024 has put further strain on academic employment budgels. The posilion taken by 11)e school offering a DC allernalive and noting the current employer contribution level Ss the limit of should limit exposure to further TPS pension cosls from the tim6 of lh8 next valuatlon. Confimiation of the application of VAT on school fees from 1 st January 2025 led to significant work belng undertaken (and which conllnues) to review all areas of expenditure. examine cost savings to both current year budgets (revenue and CAP) and onward budgets, with a particular focus on 202 26, which will be the first full year of VAT. This includes close scrutiny of all areas of operation, external guidance, and conslderatlon of structural changes to both staffing and core costs, whilst ensuring that Ihe value proposition remains strong. The Budget on Oclober 301h did not clarify many of the details needed to apply the draft legislation, and al the lime of writing HMRC guidance still has not addressed numerous queries around the actual application of this legislatlon within the framework of current Tax law and precedenls.

KING EDWARD VI GRAMMAR SCHOOL, NORWICH NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2024 Accountlng policies (continued) 2.2 Golng concern (contlnued) In the meanlime, and as we move tOv￿rdS the Implementation date, Ihe school Is worklng hard on both understanding and modelling VAT recovery options (including partial recovery, CGS. CAP and exemption), whllsl working lo ensure systems are In place lo operate the buslness withln VAT protocols. In the absenc8 of clarity over much of the practical application of the r￿ VAT regime, there are obvious challenges in onward projections, both in terms of revenue recovery and Ihe impact on demand foi pupil places. Given the times¢ales imposed to introduce VAT withln the sector, the announcem8nt Sn the budget of significant increases lo Employ8r's National Insuranc8 Contributions cr8ales an additional challenge, adding 8 further £300.000 to the cost base. In conjunclion with the loss of Mandatory Business Rates Relief and increases in the National Living Wage. cumulatlvely these equat8 to an additional annual burden on the school's finances of c£550,01)0. The appllcation of VAT on fees gives us scope for careful consideration of both the current cost base and operational practlce. It Is also Ilkely we will see changes in the locallregional marketplace over the following 36 months. However, wilh much of our costs fixedlseml-fixed the scope for Immediale action is more challenged. hence the concentration of processes withln the current year to posilion oursefves for 2025-26. The position for Ihe current budget cyde Is therefor8 threefold: acceptanca of reduced revenue surplus for the Current year, adjusted REVICAP budgets and a sharing of the 20% VAT burden wlth fee pay&rs the later seeing adjusled bills from January 2025 with a 12Yo uplift the differential reflecting expected recovery and th& in year-COSt savings and surplus reduction previously mentioned. In terms of CAP, the School Is committed to the completlon of both current major projects., 15 Upper King Street IM339) and the Lower School Development (M061) both of whlch are expected to be completed during the first half of 2025. Thereafler, the School has no plans for major capital Pfojects and the intent is lo ke8p both REV and CAP expenditure to 8ssenlial only items with appropriale conlingencies. The school is yet to see a significant drop in pupil numbers because of the VAT announcement during the summer. Year-on-year numbers, whilst lower, are close to expeclalions, and a very keen eye is now on our recruitment cycle for 2025-26 entry and beyond. In the context of such a risk horizon, the School is carefully focusing on mitigation options lo offset the inevitable pressures on fulure cashflow. This will, of course, require a keen focus on both revenue and capllal expenditure, at a time when the affordabillty of fees. and Ihe value proposition of our product remains a key consideraUon. Despite all of these challenges, with gcKKI projected income allied lo sensible budgeting, robust levels of working capital, a strong balance sheet. appropriate levels Df both interest and debt cover 811ied to prudent cash flow management {and aC￿eSS to addilional funding if needed) and an appropriate reserves policy, the Schoal feels able to address the continuing economic and financial uncerlainlies whilst delivering the core offering and creating continuad demand for our product. Since the balance sheet date there have been no subsequent events to give management doubts that the school is not a going concem. and considering the above, Norwich School has a reasonable expectation that the charity has no material uncertainties, and has adequale resources lo continue in operational existence for the foreseeable fuluie.

The conlribulions are dctcrmined by the Government Actuary on the basis of quadrennial valuations using a prospective unit credit method. The TPS Is a multi-employer scheme and there is insufficient Infomiation available to use defined benefit accounting, The TPS Is Iherefore Ireated as a defined contribution scheme and the contributions recognised in the period10 which they relate.

Crlllcal accounllng estimates and assurnptlons: The Charity makes estlmales and assumplions concerning the tuture, The resulllng accounting estimates and assumptions will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjuslm&nt to the carrying amounts of assets 8nd liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below. Critical areas of judgment.. Define ension hem The present value of the defined benefit liability depends on a number of factors that are determlned on an actuarial basls using a varlety of assumptions. The assumptlons used in determlning the net ￿$1 (Income) for penslons include the dlscount rate. Any changes In these assumptlons, whlch are dlsclosed in note 17, will impact the carrying amount of the pension Ilability. Furthermore, a roll fornard approach which projecls results from the latest full actuarial valuation has been used by the actuary in valuing the pensions liability at the year end. slment Investment properties must be valued at open market value, which should factor In any impairment, either specific lo Ihe invoslmenl ass8t, or arising more generally from sector or market conditions. Alternatively, any increase in value arising from enhancement to the assot or from wider sector or market conditions, Professional valuallons of Ihe inveslment properties are expected lo be undertaken on a regular basls (although not necessarlly annually) to assisl management in assesslng the valuation of investment property at each accounling period end.
