The following is a record of the activity undertaken during each quarter.. August-O¢tobor. LAMDA was one of the first institutions to relum to 'live' training after the March 2020 lockdown, returning lo fa￿-t(pface teaching from 291h June 2020. There was a huge amount of work to catch up on, after a Herculean effort al the end of the 2019-2D acadamic year to ensure that strmlents caught up on any missed work and graduated. Ex8m$ staff conb'nued throughout to plan to introduce Remoie Online Assessments IROAI as a response to the closure of face-tfrface examinations. 2019-20 had seen a c£4.2m r&u¢tion in proiecled income due to COVID. However, after cost ￿dUCtIOnS and conlro5s, and growng income vtherever we coukl. we ended with a net deficit of £1.7m. We therefcire started the current year wlh great financial uncertainty and reliance on a £1.Sm overdraft facility. We hoped for a Bank or C-BIL loan lo give greater financial certainty for the year, but lasl summer this wa5 very far from certain. The final approval of DAPS wa5 also not in ￿ght, a detemiinatton having been delayed by the Ofs tr*cause of LAMDA'S financial Un￿rtaInty. Againsl Ihis un*rtain and precarious financial backdrop, we continued the consultation on how L4MDA should restructure. The discussion vrith slaff reptesent8tNes lasted into September at which point the Board of TnJstee5 approved the restructure prorx)sals. Meanwhile further difficult conversations were taking place about Racism which led lo Global Majority students and alumni, dernonslraling extraordinary courage in describing th￿r experien¢&s and thereby laying the ground for extensivg WDrk on developing a new approach to Anti-Racism at LAMD Following a gradual retum to School from the end of June, and measure8 Put in place to institute a 'COVIt SecLJre' environment, we had the first case of COVID on 3rd SeptemlH. followed by 4 more in October. We dealt wlh each of these effectively. working closely wth Hammersmith and Fulham Public Health to develop and implement our contingency F4ans. November- January.. Followng the October Cases at LAMDA we implemented a'circuit breav, in consultation with Hammersmith and Fulham Publ￿ Health, with a greater reliance on online learning. As a result of this, the London Public Exams had to be Gancelled. We reiurned to the building on 9th November, wth a mixture of online and in-person teaching, and final year students conb'nuing their preparations for the December programrne of live performances. A second national lockdown was annou[￿ed by the Prime Minister from 5th Novem￿ unts'l 2nd December. Higher Education was expected to continue operating but we were a5kwJ to make our own 'infoffned decisions,. The universities minister publicly encouraged the sector not to relum to online leaming. We continued,. doing our best to manage a confusing policy silualion.. keeping Talgarth Road COVID safe and doing our best lo make online learning the best experience for students that rt ¢ould be. LAMDA student5 were sent home eadier than planned as part of the Governmenvs scheme to gel all students home for Christmas. Once more, there was a huge effort made by staff and their tremendous Ilexibility allowed productlDns fo be staged on time. It is of credit to the Drama School, that we were able to compensate for the lack of live audiences wth the adoption of INe streaming.. which in a short space of time has become an established practice at LAMDA, providing studerrts with excellenl industy exFerience of Itve-streamed theatre. Discu8sion8 with the Ofs about finanaal viability and stsbility gNerb the major reduction in Exams income ¢onb'nued over this period. Meanwhile in December, UK Visas and Immigration (UKVI) conducted a snap audit of our visa application and tnonitoring procedures and records. The restructu￿ continued, with PTASS moved into the Drama Sthool and appointments were made to the new structure during the Autumn Temi. Other key devek>pments included the establishment of a Curriculum Revlew frdmework and appointment of a Student Wellbeing Officer.

Many also struggled financially due to prolonged unavaiLabilily of work to finance their study and living costs. We set up the Student Mental Health and Wellbeing Fund, and thanks to the incredible generosty of our supporters we were able io hugely increase the specialised wellbeing and financial supp)rt for our siudents. The prolongation of COVID led us lo postpone revalidation of the MFA and review of Foundation Year (now complete} to the coming year. and work started to review the ffinanaal pcts5tson and consider ￿al LAMDA'S longer temi strategy might look like.

May- July- In this final quarter of the year, we moved to at home testing for COVID, enabling us to retum the Common Room to the students. Signs of recovery continued ￿th a substsnlial improvernent in LAMDA Examinations bookings to a posltion ahead of February's income re-forecast Therewas also a fijrther pick up in PTASS applications and shortcourse tx)okings.

The Board of Trustees signed off an Annual Operation Plan and budget in JLJne. There are still significant uncertainties around income {Exams ongolng recovery, HEIF and institutional fur￿]ng for World Class provision}, but we have a plan that reflects LAMDA'S refreshed stralegy. Rules on COVID were relaxed for theatres from 17th May. meaning we were able to welcome back a live audience, albeit socially distsnced, for the first time in over a year to our graduakn'ng students, productions. Despite the remaining government restrictions being lifted in July. LAMDA decided lo maintain COVID secu practice, with some specified relaxations - to protect our summer short course provision as the Delta variant continued to spread, especially In Hammersmith and Fulham.

As consequence, we were delighted that Hammersmith and Fulham agreed, after seeing our assessment of risks. to allow Diploma Day to proceed in person as planned.

ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENTS Despite the continuing context of the pandemic. our siudents and staff continued to surprise and amaze us ￿th their resilience and creativity. There is no doubt that the hardest period for students was caused by the enforced I￿kdOWn in the eady months of the Spring Terrn 2020, and the timing of this was a contributing factor to our drop in student sats'sfaction as measured by Ihe National Student SuNey which was relea8ed at the same lime.

This authorisation, which includes the supplementary power to aulhorise other institutions to grant awards on our tehalf, recognises the quality of LAMDA'S training and will build on our history and repL￿atIc￿l. Below is a summary of results.. Degree results remained very strong in 2020-21. Overall, there were around 10% fewer awards at 1st class I distinction level than the previous year, which indicates a le￿rn lowards the norm seen over the past five years. Across all our HE provision, all but one SiL￿ent athieved Iheir original tsrget exit award, to the considerable credit of all the teaching and support staff, as well as to the students themselves of course. On the BA (Hons) Professional Acting, 77% of grayuates were awarded a 1 st clas8 degree, with the rernainder all receiving 2.'1s. Of the graduates who comFAeted the FdA Production and Technical Arts (Stage & Screen) 50./0 achieved a Distinction, with most of the remainder receiving a MeriL On the BA {Honsl Producb"on and Technul Arts topup.. 75% of graduates received a 1 St. Postgraduate resulis were also very robust Of the MFA Professional Actin9 group, 590/0 achieved a distinction, vthile 80.10 of the smaller MA Directing cohort passed wrf(h a Dists"n¢tion, with the remainder receiving a Merit. On the MA Classical Acting. 52% of graduates eamed a Distinction, wlh all the remainder receiwng a Merit. At pre.degree level, four Students from the Foundation Diploma progressed to our BA (Honsl Professional Acting, and many others were offered places at other drama schools. Industry interest in LAMDA graduates remains very strong.

LAMDA Exams Government reslri¢lions in response lo the continued spread of COVID in 2020-21 impacted LAMDA Exam8. ability to conduct in-person assessments for much of the year. This included the cancellation of Public Centre events in November-De¢emker 2020 and all irFperson events in January-April 2021. In order to assess as many leamers as possible. retain revenue aThJ meet customer demand, we increased the volume of Remote Online Assessments (ROAS) and provKled addrtional cJJstomer guidance and support for this transition. However, we found that many customers either F(SStponed LAMDA leaching or decided to wail until in-per5on assessments were available again to examine their leamers. This meant that we had a large backlog of learners who wanted to be assessed when restrictions were lifted from March and into Summer 2021. The transition of leamers between assessment meth￿s, the ￿stpOneMent of examination events and customer demand in¢reased the volume of refunds and transfer C[￿lit vouchers we needed lo process. Many of the transactions were exiremety complex as we split cohorts across different sessions. removed the minimum fee requirement and worked hard to assess as many leaTners as FK)ssible. Additionally, due to ongoir)g S￿la1 distancing fftquirements, we intrThJuced an extra S minut&8 bètween each in- person assessment to reduce the volume of customers at exarnination events. This was in line with the additional 5 minutes conb'llgency time between exams that we applied to ROA sessions, used to resolve technical issues and enab5e Examiners to ensure remote venLJes were suitable. The extra time betrfftn exams reduced the number of leamerg and income per session by an average of 280h. The impact of COVID in 2020-21 therefore reduced the number of leamers we Could assess, when they were assessed, how they were assessed and presented complex customer refund issues.

FINANCIAL REVIEW 2020-21 This is the second financial year lo be significantly impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic. The national lockdowns in November and January and other restrictions, impacted the main activities In different ways. The main reductions being for the spring semester and summer schools, where there was a recjuced appetite from international students lo travel to London to study. The largest impact. as for the previous year, was with the examination income. In March we secured a Government Covid C-BIL loan with our bankers, Barclays for £1 5m. This has increased working capital, and substanti211y contributed lo the balance sheet cash value1£1,748k, 2019-20 £232kl.

This was the result of ongoing cost reductions from the pausing of examinations and commercial operations, and ongoing cost control. Staff costs de￿EaSed to £5,079k (2020: £5.825kl. The reasons for this include a reduction in teaching staff costs to £1,578k12020= £1,786kl follo¥Mng the restructure in 2020. which is in line wth a reduction in teaching staff numbers trom 52.2 FTE to 46.2 FfE.

BalanGe Sheet The key changes on the balan￿ sheet reflect the loss of profitability trom examinations and commercial a¢tiwlies as a result of Covid, and the impact on cash and resetves to finance the resulting in-year deficit. During ltte year a £1.5m C-BIL loan was secura with Barclays, and drawn down in March 2020, and is reflected in the year end cash balance. It was dsfficult lo accurately forecast the exam income during the summer period. The concentration of the examination Iransacts'ons in the last three months of the financial year. In addition, there were a large volume of deferrals of individual exams. This led lo a reduction of exam in¢x)me Nthich was only fvlly known after the year end. As a result, one of the bank covenants was breached: and accordingly the long-tem loans have for 2020- 21 been shown as $hort-term liabilities. Prior the signature of these accounts Barclays has approved a covenant waiver. At the date of approval of the financial statements, the loan covenants are no longer being breached and it is the trustees, ex￿tstion that there will be no breaches at the 2022 yearond date. a) LAMDA'S consolidated working capita position (current assets less current liabilities} at 31 July 2021 was negative £6,437k12020. negatNe £1,260kl, due to the restatement ofthe long-term108ns.
