Conclusions relating to going concern
In audrting the financial statements. we have concluded Ihat the Iru$lees' use of the going concern basis of

Based on the work we have perfomied. we have not identified any material uncertaintw relating to events or
condrtions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the tharitable company's ability to
continue as a going concern for a period of al least twefve mnlhs from when Ihe.financial statements are
aulhorised for issue.
Our responsibilities and the responsibililies of the Irustees with respect to going concem are described in the

Matters oil which we are required to report by exception
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the charrtable company and its envwonmenl obtained in the
course ofthe audrt, we have not identified material misstalements in the Courril Report {wh￿h incorporates the
strategic report and the director5. report).
We have nothing to report in respect of the fdlowing matters in re￿I￿)n to which the Companies Act 20C
requires us to rep(yt to you rf. in our opinion-.
adequate accounting records have not been kept by the charrtable company". or
the chantable cornpany finanual statements are not in agreement wrth the accounting records and

Responsibilities of trustees for the financial statements
As explained more fulty In the trustees, ￿spOnSIbl1￿1e$ slalemenl, as sel out on page 16. the Iruslees {who are
also the directors ofthe charrtable company for the purposes ofcompany lawl are ￿sponsible forlhe p￿paratson'
of the financial statements and lor ￿Ing satisfied that they gNe a true and fait view, and for such Internal control
as the trustees determine is necessary lo enable the preparat￿n of financial slalernents that are free from
material misstatement. whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements. the trustees are responsib￿ for assessing the Charitab￿ company's abilrty
to continue as a going concem. discbsing, a5 appltsble, matters ielated lo going concem and using the going
concem basis of accounting unless the Iruslees erther interKI lo liquidate the chantable company or to cease
operations, or have no realis￿ altemative but lo do so.
Auditorfs responsibilities for Ihe audit of the financial statements
Our objectives are lo obtain reasonable assuran￿ about whether the financral statemenls as a whole are free
from rnaterial mi55talernenl, whether due to Iraud or error. and to issue an auditorfs report that includes our
opinion. Reasonab￿ assurance is a high level of assurance but is nora guarantee that an audrt condu¢ted in
accordance with ISAS IUKI will a￿ayS detecl a material misstalement when it exists. Misstatements can arise
from fraud or error and are considered material rf. indmdualty or in aggregate, they could reasonably be
expe¢ted to inffluence the economic decisK)ns of useis tsken on the basis ol these financial statements.
Iiregularrties, including fraud. are instances of non-ccmnplian￿￿ilh laws and regulations. We design procedures
in line with our responsibl1f(￿s. outlined above. lo detect malerial-misstalemenls in ￿SpeCt of 1r￿guIarrties,
including Iraud. The extent lo which our procwjures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is
detailed below".
8ased on our understanding of the charitsble cLYnpany and the environment in which Il operates, we hdenlrfied
that the principal risks of non-complk1nce with laws and regulations, such as Independent Schools Inspectorate
regulations. safeguarding regulations. health and safety requirements, GDPR, employment Law and Charrty
Commission's general gui(Jance and we con5Klered the extent to wh￿h non-cornpliance might have a material
effect on the financial state￿￿nIs. We also considered those laws and regulations that have a direct impact on
the preparation of the financial statements such as the Companies Act 2006 and the Charities Act 2011. the
Slalemenl of Recommended Practice for Chanlies (SORP 20151 (Second edrtion. èff￿1lve 1 January 2019
and consider other factors such as payroll tax and VAT.
18-

Independent auditor's report to the members of
The Francis Holland (Church of England) Schools Trust (continued)
We evaluated management's incenlrves" and opportunities for fraudulent manipulation of the financial
slalemenls (including the risk of override of controls) and'delermined that the principal risks were related lo
posling inappropriate journal entries and management bias in certain ¥¢ovnting estimates and judgements.
Audit procedures perfcvmed by the engagement team I￿luded."
Inspecting correspondence with regulalors and lax authotrties,.
Discussions with management including conS￿erat￿)n of known or suspected instances of non-
Complian￿ wrth laws and regulatK)n and fraud",
Evaluating managernent's controls designed to prevent and detect irregularrties."
Identifying and testing journalg. in particular ioumal entnes posted with unusual account combinations,
poslings by unusual users Of unusual descript￿•n$", and
Challenging assumptions and judgements made by management in their criiical accounting estimates.
Because of the inherent limitations of an audit. there is a risk that we will not delect all Irregulart￿S, including
those leading lo a material rni5slalemenl in the financial ststemenls or non-compliance wrth regulation. This risk
increases the more that c*Jrnpliar￿e wrth a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions
renecled in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of Instances of non-compliance.
The risk Is also greater regarding Irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves
intentional concealment. forgery. collusion, omission or misrepresentatw)n.
