Future Plans The Governors intend to contlnue thelr current strategies to maintain the School's position at the cutting edge of educational provislon In a competitive market, and provide high quality educatlon for our students, by.. Ensuring a culture of contlnual self-evaluatlon wlth a focus on Independent learning and resllience; Investing In both the academlc and extra-curricular development of the School and in the bulldings, facilities and technology which support this development; Achieving a high standard of academic results whllst malntalnlng the breadth and depth of the educatlon provided. From an academic perspective, the Head and staff contlnue to revlew the currlculum to ensure that the educational provision remains appropriate for our students. development. A broad curriculum is 13
offered In the Sixth Form, wlth most students taking three A Levels. A proportion of each year group also opt to do the highly-regarded Extended Project Qualification, enabllng them to do independent research in an area of personal interest. Equally, an important conslderation for the School's future plans Is for Investment In bulldlngs and facilitles. This involves refurblshment of exlstlng facilltles and the extenslon of the School's bulldlngs to facilitate provision of a wider breadth and depth of academic and extra-curricular actlvities, On 28 February 2020, the school completed the purchase of freehold land adjacent to school property Our plans are financed prlmarily from fee Income and from our revenue reserves, as the School has no endowments or other sources of funds of its own. These sources of funds are supplemented, when considered appropriate and prudent by the Govemors, by arrangement of bank funding. The Governors look to malntaln an equltable balance, ensurlng that our current students benefit whilst, at the same tlme, ensurlng that a sound infrastructure and a strong flnancSaS base are preserved for the next generatlon of students, Just as our current students benefit today from the prudent flnanclal management and infrastructure investment practlsed by the School In the past. Prlnclpal Rlsks and Uncertalntles Detalled conslderatlon of rlsk Is delegated to the Senlor Leadershlp Team (SLT). The School operates a formal Rlsk Reglster and rlsk assessment process. On a rolllng basls, the SLT conslders each existlng rlsk on the reglster and any addltional rfsks which appear to be emerglng, Rlsks are assessed as to their likelihood and Impatt. The appropriate controls and procedures needed to mltlgate and monltor those rlsks are documented and actioned. Each rlsk Is allocated by the SLT to be owned by one of the Governors, Commlttees, or by the Vlce- Chalr or Chalr of Governors. A report of the relevant rlsks Is then presented to each Commlttee on an annual basls. The Committee makes approprlate recommendations or changes to their risks and the overall Rlsk Register Is then presented to the Board for revlew and approval at the Sprlng term Board. The prlnclpal rlsks currently faced by the School In Ilght of Covld- 19 are assessed to be the followlng., Uquldlty and vlablllty of the buslnegs: Economic challenges from Covid 19 wlll put pressure on students numbers wlthln the sector.

Through the rlsk management processes establlshed for the School, the Govemors are satisfied that the major rlsks IdentSfled have been adequately mitigated where nece55ary. It is recognised that 5y5tems can only provide reasonable but not absolute assurance that major risks have been adequately managed. 14
Bulldlngs and Malntenance The objective for the year in this area has been to retaln all essentlal repalrs and malntenance actlvlty In Ilght of Covld-19. All material capital projects have been put on hold for the foreseeable future. The total building repairs and Maintenan cost for the year, excluding staff costs and depreclatlon, was £759,278 (see Note 6(b) to the accounts). FInan5 Current year flnances The financlal statements show net Income from School activltles for the year, before Penslon Scheme actuarlal galns/losses, of £750,764 (2019.. £922,998). The prlnclpal source of income is fees, accounting for 87.20h of the School's income. These results do not include artuarfal gains/ Ilosses) on the defined benefits Support Staff Penslon Scheme of (£178,000) (2019: (£226,000)). As a charlty we enjoy tax exemptlon on our educatlonal actlvltles and on our Investment income and gains, provided that these are applled for our charitable aim5. As a charlty we are also entltled to an 800/0 reductlon on our business rates on the property we txcupy for our charltable purposes. The flnanclal beneflts we recelve from these tax exemptlons are all applled for educatlonal purpose5 and Indlrectly help us to malntaln our bursary policies and Ilnks wlth local schools. As an educatlonal charltyi we are unable to reclalm VAT Input tax on our costs as we are exempt for VAT purposes. We pay tax as an employer through the natlonal Insurance contrlbutlons we make. In addltlonal to the substantlal beneflts our School brlngs to our students, the local community and wlder soclety through the education we offer, our bursary programme and our links with local schools create a social asset. Golng Concern Covld 19 At the time of approval of the annual report, the COVID-19 pandemic continues to evolve and the long-term impact on the charltyi In common wlth other buslnesses, Is unknown. The Governors have revlewed the posltlon carefully wlth a vlew to ensure the ongolng provlslon of schooling for the puplls as well as employment of staff. Furthermore, There are currently slgnlficant cash balances as well as a substantlal Investment portfolio should addltlonal Ilquldlty be requlred through thls perlod of uncertalnty. Accordlnglyi the Governors belleve the School's flnanclal resources are sufflclent to ensure the School wlll contlnue as a golng concern for the foreseeable future, belng at least 12 months from the date of approval of the financlal statements and have therefore prepared the financial statements on the golng concern basis. Reserves pollcy and flnanclal health The School's reserves pollcy Is to accumulate unrestricted funds generated above baslc working capital requlrements, with the primary purpose of buildlng up funds to support the School's capital Investment in Its facllltles or replenishing its reserves. At each year-end, the governors determine how much funds If any are to be deslgnated for the purpose of fundlng future capital projects and/or are released to fund existing projects. In order to meet the day-to-day working capital requirements, the School maintains £IM in unrestrirted free reserve5 of cash at all times. Furthermore, the School manages the level of reserves by settlng annual operating Surplus targets and the judlclous use of investment assets. The Governors review the flnances, budgets and spend of the School on a termly basis against the budget and a cash flow analysis is updated monthly as part of the effectlve stewardship of the School. Whllst the COVID-19 pandemic continues to evolve, the management of reserves remain5 consistent with pollcy by maintaining a £IM cash buffer. As noted within note 9, The net cash position at 31 15
August 2020 reflects £5.3M cash on hand wlth £522K held within investments. Capltal projects remain on hold until 2022. The Governors have examlned the School's cash flows and are satisfied that they are adequate for the purpose of meeting it5 working capital requirements at the present time. The Govemors will continue to revlew the reserves policy and status on an annual basis. The Governors are satlsfied that there are no materlal uncertaintles surrounding the School's ability to contlnue as a golng concern. The Governors regularly review the level and nature of the School's reserve funds as part of Its strategic investment plan. The Govemors continue to be satisfied that cash holdings and the opportunity to obtain external financial facilities a sufficient to achieve the schools stated alms and obJectlves whilst maintaining a strong working capltal buffer. Reserves total £18,966,811 at 31 August 2020 (2019.. £18,394,047) made up of £383,476 In restrlcted funds and £18,583,335 In unrestrlcted funds. Investrnent pollcy and performance Investment pollcy The policy of the Governors in respect of investment can be summarised as: To manage Investment actlvltles In Ilne wlth the requlrements of the Trustee Act 2000 and of the guidance 15sued by the Charltles Commission from tlme to tlme. To take a low to medlum rlsk approach ft)r the growth of the portfollo of Investments.

Investment of unrestrlcted funds In 8ank deposlts was undertaken In accordance wlth the School's pollcy. Fundralslng perfomiance The School does not benefit from slgnlflcant endowments and other sources of Income. A substantlal proportlon of Its Income comes from the tultlon fees pald by parents. Hlstorlcallyi fundralslng actlvltles have been limlted to: Encouraging students to participate actively in small-scale fundraising events for charities of their choice. and Provldlng regular opportunltles for parents to contrlbute to bulldlng up funds In order to provlde additional bur5arles for girls who would not otherwlse be able to attend the School, and occaslonal initiatives to fund school equipment and facilities. The School has begun acilvely to Increase the scope of fundraislng actlvltles In parallel with an Incased focus on developing the strength of Its Alumnae organlsation. All fundralslng attivlties are carried out by pupils, staff, parents and Alumnae. However, these initiatives are still small in scale. Funds raised during the year therefore totalled £13,616 (2019:£3, 155), all restricted income. A total of £7,457 {2019:£1,000) costs were expended durlng the year.

SIR WILUAM PERKINS'S EDUCATIONAL FOUNDATION NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2020 16 PENSION cosrs Slr Wllllam Perklns's Educat5onal Foundation participates In three penslon schemes. Two of these, the Teachers, Pension Scheme (England and Wales) for teachlng staff arsd the Surrey County Councll Local Government Pension Scheme for eligible support staff, are multi- ernployer, defined benefit pension 5cheme5. The thlrd scheme, the Slr Wllllam Perklns's School Group Ufe Scheme, was established for support staff on 5 January 2007 following the School's declsion to cease offering membership of the Surrey County Council Local Government Pension Scheme to new employees and existing employees who were not already in the Scheme. Teachers, Penslon Scheme (England and Wales) The School partlclpates In the Teachers, Penslon Scheme {'the TPS.) for Sts teachlng staff. The penslon charge for the year Includes contrlbutlons payable to the TPS of £1,041,948 (2019: £786,686) and at the year-end £nil (2019 £nll) was accrued In respect of contrlbutlons to this scheme. The TPS Is an unfunded multl-employer deflned beneflts penslon scheme governed by The Teachers. Penslons Regulatlons 2010 (as amended) and The Teachers, Penslon Scheme Regulations 2014 (as amended). Members contrlbute on a "pay as you go" basls wlth contrlbutlons from members and the employer belng credlted to the Exchequer. Retlrement and other penslon beneflts are pald by publlc funds provlded by Parllament. The employer contribution rate Is set by the Secretary of State followlng scheme valuatlons undertaken by the Government Actuary's Department. The most recent actuarlal valuatlon of the TPS was prepared as at 31 March 2016 and the Valuatlon Report, whlch was publlshed In March 2019, conflrmed that the employer contrtbutlon rate for the TPS would Increase from 16.4010 to 23.6Wo from I September 2019. Employers are also requlred to pay a scheme administration levy of 0.080/0 9lving a total employer contrlbution rate of 23.68%. The 31 March 2016 Valuatlon Report was prepared In accordance wlth the beneflts set out In the scheme regulatSons and under the approach speclfled in the Directions, as they applled at S March 2019. However, the as5umptlons were consldered and set by the Department for Educatlon prlor to the rullng In the 'McCloudlSargeant case,. This case has requlred the courts to conslder cases regardlng the Implementatlon of the 2015 reforms to Public Servlce Penslons Includlng the Teachers, Penslon Scheme. On 27 June 2019 the Supreme Court denled the government permlsslon to appeal the Court of Appeal's Judgment that transltlonal provlslons Introduced to the reformed penslon schemes In 2015 gave rlse to unlawful age dlscrlmlnatlon. The government 15 respecting the Court's decision and has sald it wlll engage fully with the Ernployment Tribunal as well as employer and member representatives to agree how the discriminations will be remedied. A consultatlon was launched by the government on 16 July 2020 and closed to responses on 11 October 2020. 35
SIR WILLIAM PERKINS'S EDUCATIONAL FOUNDATION NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGusf 2020 The TPS is subject to a cost cap mechanism whlch was put In place to protect taxpayers against unforeseen changes in scheme costs. The Chief Secretary to the Treasury, having in 2018 announced that there would be a review of this cost cap mechanism, in January 2019 announced a pause to the cost cap mechanlsm followSng the Court of Appeal's rullng in the Mccloudlsargeant case and untll there Is certalnty about the value of pen51ons to employees from April 2015 onward5. The pause was lifted in July 2020 and the government Is preparlng to complete the cost control element of the 2016 valuations, which is expected to be completed in 2021. In vlew of the above rulings and decisions the assumption5 used in the 3 1 March 2016 Actuarlal Valuatlon may become Inapproprlate. In thls scenarlo, a valuatlon prepared In accordance with revised benefits and sultably revlsed assumptlons would yleld dlfferent results than those contalned In the Attuarlal Valuatlon. Until the consultatlon and the cost cap mechanlsm revlew are completed It Is not posslble to conclude on any financial Impact or future changes to the contributlon rates of the TPS. Accordlngly no provlslon for any addltlonal past beneflt penslon costs Is Included In these financial staternents. Surrey County Coundl Local Government Penslon (SCCLGP) Scheme The School partlclpates In thls Scheme whlch Is part of the natlonal Local Government Penslon Scheme (LGPS) for Its support staff who Jolned the School prlor to January 2007. At that date the School declded to cease offerlng membershlp of the Scheme to new employees and to exlsting employees who were not already In the Scheme. The Scheme Is a multl-employer, deflned beneflts penslon scheme. The Fund objettlve Is to achleve an overall fully-funded posltlon, where assets are sufflclent to meet all future Ilablllties on a prudent long-term basis. Wlthln thls objectlve the Fund alms to set contrbbutlons whlch are affordable and stable for employers and whlch reflect the dlfferlng characterlstlcs of employers and also to reduce the rlsk to employers of another employer defaultlng on Its penslon obligatlon, The latest trlennlal report of the Scheme's actuarles valulng the Scheme and Its deflclt as at 31 March 2019. As part of thls valuatlon, the Admlnlstering Authorlty set mlnlmum annual rates of contrlbutlon for the School, to operate from l Aprll 2020 for the comlng three years, to support future beneflt expectatlons and remove the deflclt over the above period. These rates were 37.7D/o (previously 32.90/0) of payroll for exlsting employee members of the scheme, plus a monetary sum of £28,000 (prevlously £6,439) per annum to reduce the School's share of the deflclt. Notablyi these rates are set for the three years to 31 March 2023. Thereafter the rates may be revlsed further depending upon the value of the remaining defidt and the average worklng Ilfetlme of the School's remalnlng actlve members at that polnt. The 2019 valuation report showed that on a 'contlnuing membershlp, basls, the School participation in the Scheme was valued at £3, 131,000 and its liabilities at £3,865,000, resulting in a deficit of £734,000. During the year the School commissioned specific reports valuing its share of the Fund in accordance with FRS 102. These reports showed,. For the current year 2019120 an increase in the reserve and penslon liablllty to £622,683, and a corresponding decrease in the net rnovement In funds for the year, of £178,000. For 2018119, a decrease in the penslon deflcit reserve and penslon liability to £437, 106, and a correspondlng decrease In the net movement In funds for the year, of £226,000. 36
