Welcome I am pleased on behalf of the Trustees to present the Moor House School & College Annual Report and Accounts for the year ending 31 August 2024. The progress and achievement of students has been impressive in the year with particularly strong examination results both for day students and residential students. The exemplary record of students leaving and going into further or higher education, employment or training has been maintained. This supports our vision of our leavers going on to become valued members of society. The achievement of students is a credit to them but is also testimony to the effectiveness of the collaborative working between our education, therapy and residential care teams. This integrated approach is a key element of our provision. Through ongoing research, we continue to identify and implement effettive interventions for students with Developmental Language Disorder. Demand for places remains high which offers comfort for the future of the organisation. Whilst the operation in my view is unquestionably very successful there is recognition of challenges and action taken to address these in an appropriate manner. The demand for residential places in the lower and middle school is falling and we have repurposed the residential accommodation available accordingly to meet the demand for college residential places due to the planned closure and repurposing of the West Wing residential unit in the summer. A major project is reconfiguring the dining and catering facility to provide for significantly increased dining capacity including a quiet area for those students requiring a lower arousal environment. Unfortunately, the dining hall roof has been found to be constructed over 50 years ago using RAAC which is being removed in Autumn 2024 but the project remains due to complete during the 2024125 academic year. A review of college provision is planned for 2024125 to ensure our students have access to a sufficiently broad range of courses. This includes the introduction of new courses on site as well as building working relationships with a new partner provider. The breadth of course offer available to students will be greatly enhanced through this development. Finally, the organisation is aiming to become a Charitsble Incorporated Organisation during 2025. This change offers a more appropriate basis for a charity of our operational size whilst retaining our status both of a charity and a Non-maintained Special School. In summary, an excellent 2023124 with every confidence for continued success in 2024125. Stuart Dennison, Chair of Trustees & Governors

Trustees, Report The Trustees present their annual report for the year ending 31 August 2024, under the Charities Act 2011, together with the audited accounts for the year which have been prepared under the accounting policies set out therein and follow and comply with the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Prattice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effettive l January 2019). Moor House's Vision Our vision is of young people, within our sphere of influence, with speech and language impairment achieving their full learning and communication potential, building an independent life and contributing positively to society. Strategy, Objectives and Activities The Trustees confirm that they have complied with the duty in Section 4 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to the public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission when reviewing the charity's aims and objettives and in planning fvture attivities. Moor House is a day and residential co-educational Non-maintained Special School within the meaning of the Education Act 1996 and welcomes students aged seven to nineteen years from all backgrounds with language disorders, including those with severe Developmental Language Disorder (DLD). Moor House aims to provide its students with an education that prepares them for as independent a life as possible. All students have an Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP). Moor House needs to be satisfied that it will be able to educate, support and develop a prospective student to the best of their potential. Consequently, Moor House undertakes a lengthy and thorough admissions assessment process to ensure that any prospective student is able to benefit from the intensive therapy and teaching that Moor House provides. An individual's economic status, gender, ethnicity, race, religion or non-DLD disabilities play no part in the assessment process. Once a student starts at Moor House, teams of speech and language therapists and occupational therapists work closely with the teaching staff to provide the appropriate specialist education and therapy to fit their individual needs. Students come from across the country, but mostly from the South of England.

Moor House achieves its Vision and aims by: Excellence of provision in teaching, therapy and residential care within a highly specialist environment Breadth of approach and curriculum to meet each student's needs Integration of teaching, therapy and residential provision by all staff Customised portfolios of activities for each student's individual requirements Experienced staff committed to their professions and roles Working together in a partnership of students, parents, staff and Governors Peer-reviewed research leading to evidence-based innovations in provision Advising and training other professionals and parents with an interest in DLD related issues The Trustees are responsible for setting a long-term strategy and annual priorities that are reflected in the Moor House Development Plan. These reflect our educational aims and ethos within the context of the broader aims we set for Moor House and its students. Fees are set at a level to maintain the financial viability of Moor House and at a level that is consistent with the aim of providing an excellent education to our students. Fees are normally paid by the student's Local Authority but, in exceptional circumstsnces, the Local Authority may arrange for the family to pay part of the fees. Achievements and Performance The key strategic priorities that were the foundation of the Moor House Development Plan for 2023/24 were as follows: A. To maintsin outstanding outcomes for students in all areas Achieved. Students continue to make progress across all areas against outcomes identified in their EHCPS. Additionally, students continue to achieve exceptional outcomes in nationally recognised qualifications both at Moor House and in their vocational qualifications. Destination data indicates that all students who left Moor House have transitioned to higher or further education, employment or training. B. To improve educational, therapeutic and care provision for students Achieved. The projects identified and planned for this year have been completed and this is therefore achieved. As an outstanding School & College provision is kept under constant review and improvements and developments to both the physical estate and the wider provision are always in progress. C. To enhance facilities for students and staff Achieved. In preparation for the new academic year, among the new facilities available to students are a new Sixth Form common room and coffee shop and media and life skills teaching spaces. A new outdoor play area which includes a climbing wall and sunken trampoline was available for students from September 2024. This year has seen the roll out of the CINTRA HR system for all staff which has streamlined HR processes for staff.

D. To extend the reach of the health and wellbeing programme Achieved. We have continued to expand our mental health and well-being provision for students through training and recruitment. Additionally, the team has provided ongoing training and support for staff working with the students and significant work continues to take place on making explicit links between the Student health and well-being Monitoring system (SHaW) and strategies that stsff teams can implement when supporting students. E. To support students with DLD within our sphere of influence Achieved. Through the work of the Moor House Research and Training Institute, in conjunction with the teams in school and college, we have continued to undertake inteNention-based research to identify how best to support students with DLD. These studies have been published internationally to high acclaim. There has been a continued focus on providing high quality training for professionals working with children and young people with language difficulties. Through thi5 work and other initiatives Moor House aims to fulfill its wider charitable objettives. Student Achievement and Performance - School Moor House has 145 school students in totsl (2023: 138). All students achieved above expected entry to exit data statistics for a specialist setting, with 96 % having met or exceeded their flight path expectations. 86.3 % of students gained at least one GCSE or equivalent, and we have had an increase of the number of GCSE or equivalent entries at 105 this year. 52.1 % of students accessed and achieved in more than five GCSE courses/equivalents. In English Language we had two students who achieved a Grade 8 and a Grade 7. Our NCFE Level l and Level 2 students all passed their courses and this includes four merit grades which are all equivalent to GCSE'S. Our Creative Arts students all gained EL Diploma qualifications. Other highlights included passes for 96 % of our English Language and Literature GCSE entries and some strong passes (Grade 5 or above) in Art and Pottery. The students participated in a range of extra-curricular attivities and a number of educational and residential visits during the year. The students also benefit from Moor House's own 25 metre swimming pool and have the opportunity of participating in an extensive extra-curricular programme including sport, music and drama clubs, as well as trips out including cinema visits. Student Achievements & Performance - College Moor House had a total of 71 college students for the Academic year 2023-2024. As part of Moor House provision, the students attended a Partner Provider, supported by members of our staff. This enabled students to follow a wide range of courses including Art & Design, I￿, E- Sports, Horticulture, Fisheries, Land based learning, Catering, Health and Social Care, Travel and Tourism and Animal Management to name a few. We also offered a range of courses on site at Moor House, including Media, Construction and Civil Engineering, in addition to continued learning in Maths, English and PSHCE.

Our College students improved their performance from the year before in English and Maths and these improved outcomes were repeated in their courses in other subjects provided by our partner providers and supported by our staff. At the end of the academic year all of our leavers transitioned successfully into Education, Employment or Training. One student progressed to University, five students progressed to Further Education, six students progressed to Employment andlor training, including Apprenticeships and Supported Internships with eight progressing onto Post 19 Specialist provisions. Overall academic achievement in July 2024 resulted in a 38 % pass rate in Maths, 100 % pass rate in PSHCE and 43 % of students achieved their English qualifications. In addition to this 100 % of students achieved their vocational qualifications with 53 % achieving merit or distinttion grades at Level 2 and 750/0 achieving merit or distinction grades at Level 3. NE￿ Data remained at O % , with no students not being in Education, Employment or Training when they left Moor House School & College. Moor House Research and Training Institute Achievements & Perfornian The Moor House Research and Training Institute is a department of Moor House School & College.It contributes to supporting our charitsble aims in the following ways: i) informing and validating provision at Moor House ii) providing resources for use at Moor House such as development of Shape Coding and the Wheel of Independence which are integral to the provision for our students at Moor House on a daily basis; iii) sharing our research and resources from the work of the institute outside the organisation to benefit a wide range of children with language disorders. This is achieved through: a) raising awareness of language disorders and in particular of DLD b) carrying out and publishing internationally-recognised research into interventions for children and young people with DLD, thus improving the quality and range of evidence available to professionals, families, policy makers and researchers c) developing and delivering high quality training courses and resources based on our research and extensive practical experience for professionals who work with children with language disorders d) influencing policies and practice affetting children with DLD The research contributed to three new publications: 'Daily living skills in adolescents with and without language disorder, measured using the WHEEL OF INDEPENDENCE, framework,. 'The effettiveness of individualized morphosyntsctic target identification and explicit intervention using the SHAPE CODING," system for children with Developmental Language Disorder (DLD) and the impart of within-session 'dosage'; and 'Instructional supports can reveal the word-problem solving challenges of children with language difficulties,. We also carried out four further studies on vocabulary, maths and life skills and we started a new project with external Speech and Language Therapist (SLTS) on grammar. This research work informs future provision at both Moor House and elsewhere. Training courses continue to be provided for SLTS, Occupational Therapists (OTS) and those working within Education. In the last year 1,500 people signed up for our courses or webinars. This year we will have a particular focus on teachers in mainstream schools, aiming to raise their awareness of DLD and their understanding of how to support children with DLD in the classroom.

Links with the Community and Fundraising This year, corporate involvement was a highlight, with Team IAG braving wet weather to repair the outdoor classroom decking and create flower beds, and 'Moor House Consulting, marked B Corp Month by preparing the groundwork for future projetts near the college houses. Generous corporate donations also made a difference, from Biffa, nominated by an employee family member, Akira Financial, and ongoing donations through the Microsoft employee giving scheme, made possible by a nomination from a parent. Legacy donations played a vital role this year, underscoring the lasting impact of Moor House on its community. Notable contributions included 10 % of a supporter's house sale proceeds, £5,000 from the estste of former student Angela Williamson, and a heartFelt memorial gift from the family of the late David Billing. Fundraising events brought the community together while supporting the school's development. The September Sponsored Walk raised awareness of Developmental Language Disorder (DLD) and launched our virtual 'Around the World, Challenge. Despite rainy weather, the Summer Fete was a huge success, while the College Development Appeal Secured £6,000 to transform part of the campus into a dedicated Sixth Form study hub and social area, including JT'S Coffee Shop, and a brand-new media suite. Students, parents and carers continued their unwavering support by undertaking challenging fundraising activities and hosting engaging events. For the fourth year, Peter and Julia Irvine hosted the APEX Supercar Club event at Moatlands, bringing together car enthusiasts and raising significant funds. Our gratitude extends to event sponsors and local vendors, whose contributions ensured its succe￿. A former student took part in a charity boxing match, a current student continues to write and sell his self-published books to raise money for Moor House, and supporters continue raising funds via Easy Fundraising, The Tandridge Lottery and Vinted. Our connections with the local community remain strong. Sports facilities serve as a hub for local schools and clubs, and the school engages in open communication with neighbours. Local partnerships were strengthened through initiatives like our collaboration with the Community Fridge in Hurst Green, where students volunteered regularly, and our participation in the Afasic Christmas Concert, where students performed and raised awareness for speech and language challenges. A number of local organisations also continue to provide gifts in kind and donate raffle prizes. DLD Awareness Day in October inspired a fantastic response, with over 380 participants logging 15 million steps in a virtual trek. Students wrote postcards and hosted events to amplify the message, while Moor House featured prominently in a RADLD video and were invited to tslk on local radio. Finally, the Friends of Moor House played an invaluable role, hosting coffee mornings, providing mock interviews, and curating historical displays to celebrate the school's 75th anniversary. Moor House remains committed to the highest stsndards of ethical fundraising, complying with the Fundraising Regulator, GDPR, and Charity Commission guidelines. There have been no complaints about fundraising activities.

Eststes The mlling programme of refurbishment, replacement and improvement works continued during the year. Additional air conditioning units were added to the Garfield Weston building and to three class rooms" new double-glazed windows were instslled in the common room; and the new media room had new ￿ equipment installed including new computers and interactive boards and new WiFi access points. Our regular upgrade programme included the creation of a new play area and equipment. Planning permission was obtained during the year for a new plant room and for the complete refurbishment of the dining room and kitchen. The new plant room was substantially completed by the year end and houses new pumps and tanks for supplying both hot and cold water to the main building. A contract for the construction of a dining room and kitchen was entered into and the work will hopefully be completed by the end of the current academic year. The refurbishment will increase the capacity of the dining room to meet the increase in student numbers. create a "quiet" dining area for those students who require such provision and include new kitchen equipment. Plans for the Future Moor House remains committed to ensuring that we continue to maintain our excellence in provision. The key strategic priorities forming the foundation of the Moor House Development Plan for 2024125 are: A. To maintain outstanding outcomes for students in all areas B. To improve educational, therapeutic and care provision for students C. To enhance facilities and services for students and staff D. To define and embed the role of the multi-disciplinary team within the MH pastoral model E. To support students with DLD within our sphere of influence F. To implement a strategy for organisational sustainability

Our Finances Total income for the year ended 31 August 2024 of £13,920,159 was an increase of £1,392,046 on the previous year's total income of £12,528,113. The principal source of income was pupil fees which amounted to £12,824,871 an increase of £1,086,001 on the previous year mainly as a result of an increase in pupil numbers from 209 to 216, reflerting the high regard in which Moor House is held. 99 % of pupils, fees were funded by Local Authorities. Total expenditure of £11,988,488 was a 6 % increase on the previous year's totsl expenditure of £11,310,039 reflecting inflationary pressures on costs during the year, especially on staff costs. The resulting net operating surplus for the year was £1,931,671 (2023: £1,218,074). The year-end revaluation of Moor House's defined benefit pension scheme showed a surplus of scheme assets over liabilities of £1,363,000 which was an increase of £273,000 over the 31 August 2023 net surplus of £1,090,000. The increase in the surplus mainly arose as a result of a strong investment performance partly offset by an increase in obligations (Note 14). This surplus has again not been recognised in the accounts because the Charity is unable to recover any part of the surplus by way of refunds from the scheme. The Trustees are planning to undertake two major capital projerts. The first was the complete refurbishment of the existing dining room and kitchen block in order to increase dining capacity to meet the increase in student numbers, to create a "quiet" dining area for those students who require such provision and to update kitchen equipment. Once this projert has been completed the intention is to construrt a performing arts building, which is a much-needed facility. The estimated cost for these two projects is in the region of £5.5 million and a £4 million Site Development Designated Fund was therefore set up at 31 August 2023. It is hoped that the remaining balance of £1.5 million will be raised through a further fundraising campaign. A contract for the dining room and kitchen block project was entered into and work has commenced. The Charity has a strong balance sheet with net assets at 31 August 2024 of £13,486,895 (2023: £11,555,224) including net cash and cash equivalents of £7,111,241 (2023: £4,779,557) and Unrestritted Funds of £13,453,428 (2023: £11,512,033). The Trustees are committed to ensuring that future investment is met from cash flow generated by its charitable activities and the continued success of its fundraising campaigns. io

Reserves and Reserve policy Total funds at 31 August 2024 were £13,486,895 (2023: £11,555,224) and comprised an Endowment Fund of £33,467 (2023: £43,191), which cannot be spent and total Unrestritted Funds of £13,453,428 (2023: £11,512,033). Of the total Unrestricted Funds an amount of £3,894,508 (2023: £4,000,000) has been earmarked by the Trustees as a Designated Site Development Fund and £6,140,275 (2023: 5,812,548) as a Designated Fixed Asset Fund as this amount has been invested in the Charity's buildings and other fixed assets used in the delivery of the services to the beneficiaries and is not freely available to spend, a Welfare Fund of £25,778 (2023: £21,664) which can be used for the benefit of students, with the balance of £3,392,867 (2023: £1,677,821) being a General Unrestritted Fund. The Trustees, reserves policy is to hold a General Unrestricted Fund equivalent to at least one term's operational expenditure, currently £3.9 million, to allow for the maintenance of the seNices provided and for adequate working capital if there was a temporary reduction in income or incursion of unforeseen costs. In addition, the Trustees are committed to ensuring Moor House's facilities are kept to the highest standard for the benefit of all of its pupils. Whilst the General Unrestricted Fund at the year-end of £3,392,867 is below the policy target of £3.9 million good progress was made during the year in rebuilding the Fund towards its target level. The Trustees will keep this policy under regular review with the aim of continuing to rebuild the General Unrestricted Fund to the required level. Going con￿rn Moor House participates in the Surrey Pension Fund (the Fund) part of the Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS), a defined benefit scheme, which was closed to new Moor House entrants in 2008. Moor House engages an independent actuary to carry out a valuation, for accounting purposes, of the Fund at the balance sheet dates. As described in Note 14 to the accounts the scheme had a surplus of assets at 31 August 2024 and 31 August 2023 of £1,363,000 and £1,090,000 respectively. However, the Trustees are aware that the result of the annual valuation can be volatile and this is reflected in their financial strategy for Moor House and their regular monitoring of Moor House's finances. Other key risks that could potentially have a detrimental effect on Moor House's finances include demand for places and capacity for day and residential students, pressure on Local Authorities funding, expansion of facilities on site whilst ensuring student provision is maintained and recruitment and retention of specialist staff. As explained in Note I to the accounts it is the Trustees, intention to transfer the Charity's assets and liabilities to Moor House School & College CIO within twelve months of the date of approval of the financial statements. Following this the entity in which the Charity currently operates will be wound down and will cease to be a going concern. The Charity's activities and all of its undertakings will continue in the CIO in exactly the same way as at present and the CIO will become responsible for promptly discharging all of the Charity's liabilities and obligations. Having considered the above risks and in view of the increase in pupil numbers, the strong indications of continuing pupil demand, the strong level of unrestricted funds and there being no material uncertainties regarding both the Charity's ability to continue and the terms of the proposed transfer to the CIO, the Trustees are of the opinion that the Charity can continue to operate as if a going concern up to the transfer date and that the CIO will be a going concern from the transfer date for the remainder of the forthcoming year, if appropriate, and for the foreseeable future. li

The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including FRS 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.. give a true and fair view of the state of the charity's affairs as at 31 August 2024, and of its incoming resources and application of resources. for the year then ended- have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Pr8Ctice,' and have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011. Basis for opinion We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK} IISAS (UK}l and applicable law. Our responsibililies 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 wilh 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 As explained in Note 2.1 to the financial statements, on 18 October 2024 the Charily registered as a CIO (Charitable Incorporated Organisation). The assets and liabilities of the Charity are expected to be transferred to the CIO within 12 months of the financial statements being approved. At this point the legal entity in which the Charity currently operates will be wound down and accordingly these financial statements have been prepared on a basis other than going concern. The transition to a CIO will not impact the Charity's activities which will continue in the new CIO. Our opinion is not modified in this regard. Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevanl sectiOf)s of this report. Other information The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor's report thereon. The truslees are responsible for the other information conlained within the annual report. 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 inconsislent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent malerial misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If. based on the work we have performed, we Gonclude 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.

Moor House School & College Independent Auditors Report To the Trustees of Moor House School & College Matters on which we are required to report by exception We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Charities Act 2011 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion.. the information given in the Trustees, Annual Report is inconsistent in any material respect with the financial statements.. or the charity has not kept adequate accounting records,. or the financial slatements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns., or we have not received all the information and explanations we required for our audit. Responsibilities of trustees As explained more fully in the trustees, responsibilities statement, 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 Ihal are free from malerial m isstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing Ihe 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 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with regulations made under section 154 of that Act. 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 thal an audit conducted in accordance with ISAS (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when il exists. Misstatemenls can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. As part of an audil in accordance with ISAS (UK) we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional sceptlGism throughoul the audit. We also= Identrfy and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion. forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal Gontrol_ Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumStan￿s, but not for the purposes of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the charity's internal control. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the trustees. Conclude on the appropriateness of Ihe trustees, use of the basis other than going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audil evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainly exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Charity's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material unGertainty exisls. we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the financial stalemenls or, if such disclosures are inadequale, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. 20

Moor House School & College Independent Auditors Report To the Trustees of Moor House School & College Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings. including any significant deficiencies in internal Gontrol that we identify during our audit. Explanation as to what extent the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud 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. The objectives of our audit in respect of fraud, are., to identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements due to fraud,. to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the assessed risks of material misstatement due to fraud, through designing and implementing appropriate responses to those assessed risks,. and to respond appropriately to instances of fraud or suspected fraud identified during the audit. However. the primary responsibility for the prevention and detection of fraud rests with both management and those charged with governance of the charity. Our approach was as follows.. We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory requirements applicable to the charity and considered that the most significant are the Charities Act 2011. the Charity SORP, and UK financial reporting standards as issued by the Financial Reporting Council. We obtained an understanding of how the charity complies with these requirements by discussions with management and those charged with governance. We assessed the risk of material misstatement of the financial statements, including the risk of malerial misstatement due to fraud and how it might occur, by holding discussions with management and those charged with governance. We inquired of management and those charged with governance as to any known instances of non- compliance or suspected non-comp5iance with laws and regulations. Based on Ihis understanding, we designed specific appropriate audit procedures to identify instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. This included making enquiries of management and those charged with governance and obtaining additional corroborative evidence as required. There are inherenl limitations in the audit procedures described above. We are less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations that are not closely related to events and transactions reflected in the finanGial statements. Also, the risk of not detecting a material misslatement due to fraud is higher than Ihe risk of not detecting one resulting from error, as fraud may involve deliberate concealment by, for example. forgery or intentional misrepresentations, or through collusion.

Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £. The comparative figures are for the 12 months ended 31 August 2023. As stated in Note l it is the Trustees intention to transfer all of the Charity's assets and liabilities to the CIO and consequently the Charity is not a going concern. The Charity will continue to operate as normal from the balance sheet date to the date of transfer following which the CIO will be responsible for promptly discharging all the Charity's liabilities and obligations and for carrying on the Charity's activities as before. The Charity's assets and liabilities will be transferred at their net book amounts, without any adjustments being required, and there are no material uncertainties regarding these assets and liabilities at the balance sheet date. The financial statements have Iherefore been prepared on the historical cost basis with the assets and liabilities being shown in a format as if the Charity was still a going concern. There are no differences between the amounts presented in the financial statements and the amounts that would have been presented if the Charity were a going concern. With increased pupil numbers, solid levels of unrestricted reserves and in the absence of any material uncertainties regarding both the ability of the Charity to continue and with the terms of the proposed transfer to the CIO, the Trustees are of the opinion that the Charity can continue to operate as if a going concern up to the transfer date and that the CIO will be a going concern from the transfer date for the remainder of the year. if appropriate, and for the foreseeable future. 26

Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the charity anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide. Deferred income represents fees and deposits received in advance of the academic year to which they relate.

In accordan￿ with FRS102, the accounts recognise all contributions payable to fund deficits arising as a result of past employee seNice. Contributions to the scheme are charged to the Ststement of Financial Activities (SOFA) as they become payable in accordance with the rules of the multi employer scheme.
