PGHS strives to be an inclusive and tolerant environment in which the wellbeing of every young person comes

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2025

promote employees on the basis of their experience, abilities and qualifications. Our recruitment publicity aims

FINANCIAL REVIEW AND RESULTS FOR THE YEAR
The total income for the year ending 31 July 2025 amounted to £3,734,571 (2024.. £4,188,175) a decrease of
£453,604 on the previous year. Expenditure increased by £108,647 to £4,147,359 {2024.' £4,038,712). The
net income before investment gains and losses for the year was -£433,358 (2024.. £125,619). Cash and deposit
at the bank has decreased by 48010 bringing the cash in hand to £1,207,854 (2024.. £2,489,455).
Reserves Policy
The schcM)I's total funds stocd at £7,581,841 as at 31 July 2025, of which £2,601,471 was deployed as part of
the school premises and equipment, £469,501 related to the revaluation reserve leaving £4,510,868 as general
reserves. As recommended by the School's auditors, the Governors consider that free reseNes of estimated
expenditure for a minimum of two ftjll terms is prudent and practicable to cover the risks and uncertainties of
operating as an independent educational establishment.
The school has worked very hard to build reserves to ensure there remains a sufficient fund to cover future
projects and developments to fulfil the needs of the business or comply with government legislation, stsrt-up
costs of new educational activities, and day-to-day working capital needs.
The resetves policy will be reviewed on an annual basis.
Investment Policy
Any net incoming resources at the end of the financial year are invested in an interest-earning bank account,
when considerations of working capitsl needs are tsken into consideration. It is the policy of the Governors to
review the rates on investment accounts on an on-going basis. The Governors shall consult with charity
investment experts to ensure that the best rates are obtained to enable funds to grow at the most
advantageous rate whilst taking into consideration the need to safeguard the charity's assets against undue
risk.
PLANS FOR FUTURE PERIODS
At the time of agreeing the accounts for 2024125. the Governors of Palmers Green High School Limited (PGHSI
considered that, in view of the continuing fall in pupil number5 at the school, and the predicted operating
forecast going fonvard, it was doubtful that it would continue to be financially viable beyond the current school
year and, after considering a range of strategic options anticipated that the School would need to be closed.
Accordingly, (as outlined in note 1.2 and note 19 of these accounts) they determined that the most effective
way to further the charitable objerts of PGHS would be to transfer the entirety of its assets and undertaking to
St Alban's Education Group (STAEG). PGHS thus agreed to convey, transfer, assign and/or deliver (as
appropriatel the Assets with effert from the 4th March 2026 with full tide guarantee to STAEG and STAEG did
from the Transfer Date acquire and tske over the Business, together with such rights, title and interests which
PGHS may have in the Assets.
After careful consideration of all available options, the Governing Body concluded that there was no realistic
prospect of the School returning to a sustainable financial position. As a result, the decision has been taken to
cease operations.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS REPORT ON THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
for the
ear ended 31 Jul 2025
AUdit0￿S responsibilities for the audit of the financial ststements Icontinuedl
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non<ompliance with laws and regLJlations. We
design procedures in line ￿rith our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstalements
in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of
detecting irregulariiies, including fraud is detailed below.
Explanation as to what extent the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities.
including fraud
The objectives ol our audit in respect of fraud, are., to identify and assess the risks of material
missiatement of Ihe financial statements due to fraud,. to obtain sufficient appropriate audit
evidence regarding the assessed risks of material misstalement due to fraud, through designing
and implementing appropriate responses to ihose assessed risks., and to respond appropriately lo
instances of fraud or suspected fraud identified during the audit. However, the primary
responsibility lor the prevention and detection ol fraud rests wth bDth management and those
charged with governance of the charitable company.
Our approach was as follows..
We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory requirements applicable lo tho
charitable company and considered that the most significant are the Companies Act 2006, the
Charities Act 2011, the Charity SORP, and UK fin8n¢ial reporting stsndards as issued by the
We obtained an understanding of how the charitable company complies with these
requirements by discussions wth management and those charged wth governance.
We assessed the risk of material misstatement of the financial statements, including the risk
of material misstatement due lo fraud and how il might occur, by holding discussions with
management and those charged with governance.
We inquired of tmanagement and those charged with governance as to any known instances
of non-cornpliance or suspected non-oompliance with laws and regulations.
Based Dn this 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 corrobDrative
evidence as required.
As part of an audit in accordance with ISAS IUKI we exercise professional judgement and maintain
professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
Identify and assess Ihe risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether
due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive lo those risks, and
obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The
risk of nol 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 inlernal control.
Obtsin an understanding of intemal control relevant to the audft in order to design audit
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstsnces, but not for the purposes of expressing
n opinion on the effectiveness of the charitable company's internal control.
Evaluate the appropriateness of aecounting pc>licies used and the reasonableness of
accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the governors.

Explanation as to what extent the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities,
including fraud leontinuèdl
Conclude on the appropriateness of the govemors, use of the going concern basis of
accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists
related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubl on the charitable company's
ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we
are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the financial
statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions
are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However,
future events or conditions may cause the charitable company to cease to continue as
going concern.
Evaluated the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements,
including the disclosLJres, and whether the financial statements represent the undedwng
transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant
deficiencies in internal control that we identfy during our audit.
