The Trusiees periodically review the l¢vel of Teserves to en5ur¢ that ihesc are consisieni with the College's budg¢l

ensure they retain sllffi¢ieni unrcstricied rescrves to assist the Governors to manage ihe fixed &5ws which are used by the

The Covid 19 pandemic h&8 had a s¢vcre impxi on some areas of the school's operntion (in parttcular the number of
inieTnational boarders has rujuced significantly) bLLi it is our cxpectation that ihis will be a situation which will give
opporlunities in other areas. Port-pandernic it 1$ expecied that thcrc will bc a modest growth in overall pupil nu￿￿e[S in the

accounis in ac¢ordan¢¢ with the FinaD¢ial Reporting Standard appli¢abl¢ in the UK and Republic of Ireland {FRS 102)
Second Edition. The financial stsiements have been PTepared to give & 'true and fair. view And have departed from the
Charities (Accounts and Rep)rts) Regulations 2008 oThly to the extetrt required to providr a 'trne and fair view,. This
departure has involved followjng Accounting ar￿ Rewrting by Clkr]"ties preparing their accounts in accordance with
the Financial RetK)rtin8 Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) Second Edition rather than
the Accounting and Reporting by Charitiu: Sthtemeni o(Recommended Prauice effective from l April 2¢Y)5 which has
sirtce beett withdrawn.
The accounting poli¢ie5 Sel out below have been applied in preparing the financia] sratements for ihe year ended 31
August 2020 and the comparative infornwion pres¢nt¢d in these financial stsiem¢nis for the year ended 31 August
2019. The financial S￿lementS are drawn up under the hi*orical coa conveniion except that investments are ¢aTticd at

r¢v15ion and future perio(Ls if the revision aff¢ct¢d curr¢nt and futur¢ pffi(xls.
ln the view of Ihe Trustees, no assumwions COTLcerning ihe future OT estimation uncertainty affttling a5￿ts or liabilitles
at the balance sheet date are likely to re￿11 in a material *Jju#mcnt to theLT ￿rryIng amounts in the next fInar￿jaI year.

on a "pay as you go" basis with contributions from members and the employer being ¢rwJiied to the Exchequer.
Rel1￿Me￿i and other pension bcncfils are paid by public fund5 provided by Parliament.
"rhe employtt COTLtribution r* is s¢t by ihe Secretsry of Stste following ￿herne vatuations urtdertaken by the
Guvernment Actuary's Deparrmeni. Th¢ mosi re¢¢nl actuarial valuation of the TPS was prepared as at 31 March 2016 and
Ihe Valuation Keport. whi¢h wa5 published in March 2020. confinn¢d that the ¢mploy¢r contrilmtion Tate for th¢ TPS
would increase frrjm 16.4Dh to 23.6Y. from I September 2020. EmployeTS arc also required to pay a xheme
adTninistration levy of 0.08Yo giving a employcrcontributlon r*¢ of 23.68Y•.
'I'he 31 Mar¢h 2016 Valuaihon Report prepared in a¢¢ordatKe with the benefits set out in the scheme regulations and

¢ot)sidered and set by the Dcpartment for Educaiiort prior to ihc rulin8 In the 'McCloudlSargeani ¢ase'. This case has
requiTed the courts to consider cases regarding the irnplemcntation of the 2015 r¢lornis 10 Public Scrvice Pcnsions
in¢ludin8 the Teaclws. P¢nsions.
On 27 June 2020 the Supreme Court d¢nied thc 8overnrneni perniission io app¢al th¢ Court of Appeal's judgm¢nt that
trans11ional provisions introduced to ihe refomxd pension schemes in 2015 gave rise lo unlawful ag¢ di$criminaiion. The

The TPS 15 SILbicct to a cost cap mechanism which was put in place to protea wpayers againll unforeseen changes in
scheme costs. The Chief Secrelary to the Treasury. having in 2019 announced thai ihcrr would be a review of ihis ¢0
cap mechaThism, in January 2020 announced a pause to the coll ¢ap m¢chanism ftsllowing the Court of Appeal's ruling in
Ihe McCloud/Sarg¢ant case and umil there is certainty about the value of pensions to employees from April 2015
onwards.
In view of the above rulin8s and decLSLons the wumpticw used in thc 31 March 2016 A¢ruaTial Valuaiion may become
inappropriaie. In ihis Scenari￿ a valuation prepared in accoidance with revised benefits and gjitably Yevised a&%umptions
would yield different results than those ¢oniwned in the Actuarial Valuation.
Until a reTh￿dY to the dI￿rImination rorKIusion has bccn detern)in￿ by the Employment Tribunal it is possible to
conclude on any financial impaci or fviure changes to the contribution Nes of the TPS. Accordingly, Th) provision for any
