The Trustee appoints the Foundation Governors. The delivery of the education and curriculum and the management of the schools is controlled through the various Boards of Governors of each of the schools, namely

Effective partnership between the Trustee, Governors and staff has contributed significantly to a successful year of activity.

TRUSTEE'S REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2020

Objectives and activities (continued)

e. Corporate Governance

Processes are in place to ensure that performance is monitored and that appropriate management information is prepared and reviewed regularly by both the Treasurer officer of the Trustee company and its Board of Directors.

The systems of internal control are designed to provide reasonable assurance but not absolute assurance against material misstatement or loss. They include:

f. Risk Management

The Trustee has introduced a formal risk management process to assess business risks and implement risk management strategies. This has involved identifying the types of risks the School faces, prioritising them in terms of potential impact and likelihood of occurrence, and identifying means of managing the risks. As part of this process the Trustee has reviewed the adequacy of the School’s current internal controls and the costs of operating particular controls relative to the benefits obtained. Procedures have been established for reporting failings immediately to the Board of Directors of the Trustee that include regular bank reconciliations as well as the production of management accounts at the end of each term which are reviewed by the officers of the Trustee.

The key risk facing the charity is the level of voluntary contributions and donations that it receives from parents and donors.Declining receipts translate into less funds available to improve the education being offered to our KD pupils.The Trustee endeavour to educate parents along with the wider community of the importance of their financial support especially in the light of the reducing government funding being made to our schools on the KD campus.

TRUSTEE'S REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2020

Achievements and performance

a. Objectives, Activities, Achievements and Performance

King David Schools (Manchester) exists to provide Jewish children with a meaningful orthodox Jewish religious education coupled with an excellent secular education.

All units on campus continue to achieve exemplary results in both the religious and secular area. The Primary School is ranked as one of the best performing in the country and the High School (including Sixth Form and Yavneh) results for both GCSE and 'A’ level examinations puts it among the top tier of secondary schools in the country, both in relation to the State and Independent sectors. The High School has also achieved 'Outstanding' status with OFSTED recognising the significant contribution that the school makes to the education of pupils. Substantial grants have been awarded by the Government to the schools to enable them to continue with the expansion and upgrading of their facilities.

The Trustee have given due consideration to the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit requirement under the Charities Act 2011. when reviewing the Charity’s aims and objectives and in planning future activities. As a leading quality school to the Jewish community the Trustee notes that its success acknowledged nationally both in the secular and religious fields continues. Our pupils are well prepared to move on to leading universities, religious and secular colleges with many of our former students achieving success in the wider community.

The Trustee took possession of the new building financed primarily by the government under Building Schools for the Future (BSF) in November 2010 so that our pupils and staff enjoy a state of the art Education Facility second to none.

b. Core Objectives and Strategy

The core objective of the charity continues to be that of providing Jewish children with a meaningful orthodox Jewish religious education coupled with an excellent secular education.

The strategy is achieved by encouraging all units on the King David Campus to employ highest grade teachers who are able to instil in the pupils not only excellence in knowledge but also to experience a warm, friendly Jewish environment with a commitment to giving to the community as a whole. The Trustee continues to ensure that the facilities are up to date and suitable for the delivery of the educational and religious objectives.

The School is dependent on voluntary contributions from parents, donations and educational grants in order to fulfil its objectives. Failure of parents to meet their voluntary contribution commitments will threaten the school’s ability to achieve its objectives.

TRUSTEE'S REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2020

Financial review

a. Financial Review, Management Policies and Results for the Year

The Consolidated Statement of Financial Activities (SoFA), set out on page 10, shows that the group received total income of £9,235,077 (2019: £9,015,929). £9,752,564 (2019: £9,653,219) was incurred as expenditure leaving a deficit of £265,514 (2019: £1,324,781) after a depreciation charge of £621,884 (2019: £611,683) and gains arising from changes in actuarial assumptions of £252,000 (2019: losses of £686,000).

This group position however, takes into account the surpluses in actuarial gains/(losses) in the pension schemes positions, which are long term non-cash items, of £132,000 (2019: (£401,000)) in The King David High School (KDHS) and £120,000 (2019: (£285,000)) in the King David Primary School (KDPS). Had these accounting entries not been included in this year's results, we would be facing a deficit of around £517,514 (2019: £638,781).

The principal funding sources are donations, voluntary contributions from parents, income from the nursery and statutory government funding for the two academies, King David High School and King David Primary School.

The charity itself generated a deficit of £454,189 (2019: £584,968).

The charity made an unrealised loss on its investments of £27 (2019: £1,491) leaving a total net movement in funds to be added to the reserves. The trustee remains conscious that more funds will have to be raised to maintain the ongoing excellence to which they are committed. Without parental assistance the current achievement of acclaimed success could be threatened.

The Charity continues to monitor its results against performance as its measurement of success. The Charity does not employ a professional fundraiser and relies on assistance from the Trustee, Governors and parents. Whilst it was noted that the Voluntary Contributions from parents continued below expectation, the Charity held a Fundraiser in 2020 which raised some £1,200,000 (due over 2 years). The Charity must continue its fundraising activities in order for it to be able to continue providing for its primary objectives and to maintain the high levels of educational standards. The Charity has not received any complaints about its fundraising activities and has policies in place to ensure that there is no unreasonable intrusion into a person's privacy.

b. Reserves

The policy of the Trustee has been and continues to be to utilise all reserves to fund the activities of the charity which has resulted from the development and growth of the campus, particularly the High School and to improve the religious and cultural educational experience across all the schools. Ideally the trustee would like the trust to hold two years' net expenditure of approx £1,000,000 in the unrestricted reserve fund but with constant erosion of the Academies funding from central government resulting in the Trustee having to support the 2 academies on the KD campus at a greater level than was envisaged that has not been possible.

The total reserves at the year end are £23,967,669 (2019: £24,233,180). This includes unrestricted reserves of £3,321,185 (2019: £3,170,700) and restricted reserves of £20,646,481 (2019: £21,062,480).

The Trustee is seeking sources of additional funding for capital expenditure in order that total reserve levels are improved. The Trustee does not consider that this has inhibited activities in any way.

Free Reserves

Free reserves for the group as at 31 August 2020 stood at £582,960 (2019: £500,048).

TRUSTEE'S REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2020

c. Investment Policy and Performance

The Charity has a small investment in a quoted company and a subsidiary but in the main all funds are held in cash since they are currently being directed to the major campus enhancement capital building programme. The policy is to sell these shares as and when the trustee consider the time to be propitious.

The Charity has an investment in Tesco plc with a market value of £11,948 (2019: £11,975). This constitutes more than 5% of the charity’s investments.

The Charity has an investment in a dormant subsidiary, K D Advertising Limited, of £2 (2019: £2).

d. Staff Training and Career Development

The schools are committed to the training, career development and welfare of its employees. An individual’s career development is assessed through appraisal and supervision. Training programmes are provided to meet ongoing needs, with the aim of developing employees for both their current and their future roles.

Pay and remuneration of Key Management Personnel are reviewed independently by the Directors of the Trustee Company who themselves are not compensated.

e. Auditors

Crowe U.K. LLP will be proposed for re-appointment at the Trustee meeting.

f. Future Plans

The King David School Campus now provides top class education in both secular and Jewish religious studies, with a wide cross section of extracurricular activities covering sports, art and culture housed in the most modern buildings with enhanced advance technological facilities supported by a most dedicated and capable staff. The Trustee is determined to reach out further in building a school of excellence which will continue to be the pride of the Jewish Community.

KING DAVID SCHOOLS (MANCHESTER)

TRUSTEE'S REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2020

g. Going Concern

The charity and group meets its day-to-day requirements thorough its bank facilities and the extremely generous donors and parents. The group are considering a number of fundraising opportunities to recover the deficits going forward. Charity projections taking account of reasonable possible changes in performance show that the charity should be able to operate within the level of its current facilities. There is no intention by Mr J Rowe to request full repayment of the concessionary loan in the near future unless the charity can afford to do so.

The charity continues to monitor its results against performance as its measurement of success. The charity does not employ a professional fundraiser and relies on the assistance from the Trustee, governor and parents. Whilst voluntary contributions from parents continue to be below the ideal level, to compensate, the charity held an internet fundraising campaign in the year which raised over £1m (payable over a number of years). This ensures that the charity is able to continue with its primary objectives and to maintain the high levels of educational standards.

The Covid 19 pandemic has had an impact on the level of parental contributions being received but expenses have also reduced somewhat due to the Furlough schemes. The charity has also been able to reduce its donations to the academies. The trustees’ aim is to ensure that the savings achieved offset some of the reduction in income. The Charity has use of an overdraft facility to ensure that any temporary cash flow shortfalls are covered. This is due for renewal in July 2021.

As has been the case for many years, the Trustee continues its success in maintaining sufficient income to ensure the requirements of the group are met in full. However, the group must continue its fundraising activities if the Academies are to continue to provide the academic excellence it has in the past.

The group therefore continues to adopt the going concern basis in the financial statements.

Opinion

The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standards applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) in preference to the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice issued on 1 April 2005 which is referred to in the extant regulations but has been withdrawn.

This has been done in order for the accounts to provide a true and fair view in accordance with the Generally Accepted Accounting Practice effective for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2015.

In our opinion the financial statements:

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities 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 Group in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the United Kingdom, including the Financial Reporting Council's Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with 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

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the ISAs (UK) require us to report to you where:

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF KING DAVID SCHOOLS (MANCHESTER) (CONTINUED)

Other information

The Trustee is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Annual report, other than the financial statements and our Auditor's report thereon. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude 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.

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

Responsibilities of trustees

As explained more fully in the Trustee's responsibilities statement, the Trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements which give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the Trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, the Trustees are responsible for assessing the Group's and the parent 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 Group or the parent charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Page 10

KING DAVID SCHOOLS (MANCHESTER)

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF KING DAVID SCHOOLS (MANCHESTER) (CONTINUED)

Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

We have been appointed as auditor under section 151 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with the Act and relevant regulations made or having effect thereunder.

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 that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Auditor's report.

Use of our report

This report is made solely to the charity's trustees, as a body, in accordance with Part 4 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charity's trustees those matters we are required to state to them in an Auditor's report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and its trustees, as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

King David Schools (Manchester) is a registered charity (No. 526631), its principal address is shown on the charity information page. The charity is a public benefit entity.

2. Accounting policies

2.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) - Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011.

The financial statements have been prepared to give a 'true and fair' view and have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a 'true and fair' view. This departure has involved following the Charities SORP (FRS 102) published in October 2019 rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn.

King David Schools (Manchester) meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy.

The Consolidated statement of financial activities (SOFA) and Consolidated balance sheet consolidate the financial statements of the Charity and its subsidiary undertaking. The results of the subsidiary are consolidated on a line by line basis. The charity has the right to appoint/ remove members and governors of the consolidated entities and as such has control.

2.2 Going concern

The charity and group meets its day-to-day requirements thorough its bank facilities and the extremely generous donors and parents. The group are considering a number of fundraising opportunities to recover the deficits going forward. Charity projections taking account of reasonable possible changes in performance show that the charity should be able to operate within the level of its current facilities. There is no intention by Mr J Rowe to request full repayment of the concessionary loan in the near future unless the charity can afford to do so.

The charity continues to monitor its results against performance as its measurement of success. The charity does not employ a professional fundraiser and relies on the assistance from the Trustee, governor and parents. Whilst voluntary contributions from parents continue to be below the ideal level, to compensate, the charity held an internet fundraising campaign in the year which raised over £1m (payable over a number of years). This ensures that the charity is able to continue with its primary objectives and to maintain the high levels of educational standards.

The Covid 19 pandemic has had an impact on the level of parental contributions being received but expenses have also reduced somewhat due to the Furlough schemes. The charity has also been able to reduce its donations to the academies. The trustees’ aim is to ensure that the savings achieved offset some of the reduction in income. The Charity has use of an overdraft facility to ensure that any temporary cash flow shortfalls are covered. This is due for renewal in July 2021.

As has been the case for many years, the Trustee continues its success in maintaining sufficient income to ensure the requirements of the group are met in full. However, the group must continue its fundraising activities if the Academies are to continue to provide the academic excellence it has in the past.

The group therefore continues to adopt the going concern basis in the financial statements.

2.3 Income

All income is recognised once the Charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably.

Grants are included in the Consolidated statement of financial activities on a receivable basis. The balance of income received for specific purposes but not expended during the period is shown in the relevant funds on the Balance sheet. Where income is received in advance of entitlement of receipt, its recognition is deferred and included in creditors as deferred income. Where entitlement occurs before income is received, the income is accrued.

Gifts in kind donated for distribution are included at valuation and recognised as income when they are distributed to the projects. Gifts donated for resale are included as income when they are sold.

Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.

2.4 Expenditure

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.

Expenditure on charitable activities is incurred on directly undertaking the activities which further the Group's objectives, as well as any associated support costs.

Grants payable are charged in the year when the offer is made except in those cases where the offer is conditional, such grants being recognised as expenditure when the conditions attaching are fulfilled. Grants offered subject to conditions which have not been met at the year end are noted as a commitment, but not accrued as expenditure.

All expenditure is inclusive of irrecoverable VAT.

2.5 Government grants

Government grants relating to tangible fixed assets are treated as deferred income and released to the Consolidated statement of financial activities over the expected useful lives of the assets concerned. Other grants are credited to the Consolidated statement of financial activities as the related expenditure is incurred.

2.6 Tangible fixed assets and depreciation

Tangible fixed assets costing £2,000 or more are capitalised and recognised when future economic benefits are probable and the cost or value of the asset can be measured reliably.

Tangible fixed assets are initially recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost model, tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. All costs incurred to bring a tangible fixed asset into its intended working condition should be included in the measurement of cost.

At each reporting date the Charity assesses whether there is any indication of impairment. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is determined to be the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use. An impairment loss is recognised where the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount.

2. Accounting policies (continued)

2.6 Tangible fixed assets and depreciation (continued)

Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of tangible fixed assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method.

Depreciation is provided on the following bases:

2.7 Investments

Fixed asset investments are a form of financial instrument and are initially recognised at their transaction cost and subsequently measured at fair value at the Balance sheet date, unless the value cannot be measured reliably in which case it is measured at cost less impairment. Investment gains and losses, whether realised or unrealised, are combined and presented as ‘Gains/(Losses) on investments’ in the Consolidated statement of financial activities.

Investments in subsidiaries are valued at cost less provision for impairment.

2.8 Stocks

Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value after making due allowance for obsolete and slow-moving stocks. Cost includes all direct costs and an appropriate proportion of fixed and variable overheads.

2.9 Debtors

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.

2.10 Cash at bank and in hand

Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short-term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.

2. Accounting policies (continued)

2.11 Liabilities

Liabilities and provisions are recognised when there is an obligation at the Balance sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably.

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.

Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation. Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the provision is based on the present value of those amounts, discounted at the pre-tax discount rate that reflects the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised in the Consolidated statement of financial activities as a finance cost.

2.12 Financial instruments

The Group only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

2.13 Pensions

The Group operates a defined contribution pension scheme and the pension charge represents the amounts payable by the Group to the fund in respect of the year.

Contributions for personal pension schemes are accounted for in the year to which they relate.

2.14 Fund accounting

General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustee in furtherance of the general objectives of the Group and which have not been designated for other purposes.

Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or which have been raised by the Group for particular purposes. The costs of raising and administering such funds are charged against the specific fund. The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.

Investment income, gains and losses are allocated to the appropriate fund.

3. Critical accounting estimates and areas of judgment

Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

Critical accounting estimates and assumptions:

The Charity makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates and assumptions will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below.

The present value of the Local Government Pension Scheme defined benefit liability depends on a number of factors that are determined on an actuarial basis using a variety of assumptions. The assumptions used in determining the net cost or income for pensions include the discount rate. Any changes in these assumptions, which are disclosed in note 26, will impact the carrying amount of the pension liability. Furthermore a roll forward approach which projects results from the latest full actuarial valuation performed at 31 March 2018 has been used by the actuary in valuing the pensions liability at 31 August 2020. Any differences between the figures derived from the roll forward approach and a full actuarial valuation would impact on the carrying amount of the pension liability.

25. Pension commitments

The Charity operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions totalling £1,883 (2019: £1,982) were payable to the fund at the balance sheet date and are included in creditors.

The Group operates a defined benefit pension scheme.

The academies' employees belong to two principal pension schemes: the Teachers' Pension Scheme for England and Wales (TPS) for academic and related staff; and the Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS) for non-teaching staff, which is managed by Hymans Robertson LLP. Both are multi-employer defined benefit schemes.

The latest actuarial valuation of the TPS related to the period ended 31 March 2016 and of the LGPS 31 March 2018.

There were no outstanding or prepaid contributions at either the beginning or the end of the financial year.

Teachers' Pension Scheme

The Teachers' Pension Scheme (TPS) is a statutory, contributory, defined benefit scheme, governed by the Teachers' Pension Scheme Regulations 2014. Membership is automatic for full-time teachers in academies and, from 1 January 2007, automatic for teachers in part-time employment following appointment or a change of contract, although they are able to opt out.

The TPS is an unfunded scheme and members contribute on a 'pay as you go' basis - these contributions along with those made by employers are credited to the Exchequer. Retirement and other pension benefits are paid by public funds provided by Parliament.

The Government Actuary, using normal actuarial principles, conducts a formal actuarial review of the TPS in accordance with the Public Service Pensions (Valuations and Employer Cost Cap) Directions 2014 published by HM Treasury every 4 years. The aim of the review is to specify the level of future contributions. Actuarial scheme valuations are dependent on assumptions about the value of future costs, design of benefits and many other factors. The latest actuarial valuation of the TPS was carried out as at 31 March 2016. The valuation report was published by the Department for Education on 5 March 2019.

Page 41

KING DAVID SCHOOLS (MANCHESTER)

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2020

25. Pension commitments (continued)

The key elements of the valuation and subsequent consultation are:

  1. employer contribution rates set at 23.68% of pensionable pay (including a 0.08% administration levy) 2. total scheme liabilities (pensions currently in payment and the estimated cost of future benefits) for service to the effective date of £218,100 million and notional assets (estimated future contributions together with the notional investments held at the valuation date) of £196,100 million, giving a notional past service deficit of £22,000 million

  2. the SCAPE rate, set by HMT, is used to determine the notional investment return. The current SCAPE rate is 2.4% above the rate of CPI, assumed real rate of return is 2.4% in excess of prices and 2% in excess of earnings. The rate of real earnings growth is assumed to be 2.2%. The assumed nominal rate of return including earnings growth is 4.45%.

The next valuation result is due to be implemented from 1 April 2023.

The employer's pension costs paid to TPS in the year amounted to £595,356 (2019 - £529,330).

A copy of the valuation report and supporting documentation is on the Teachers' Pensions website (https://www.teacherspensions.co.uk/news/employers/2019/04/teachers-pensions-valuation-report.aspx).

Under the definitions set out in FRS 102, the TPS is an unfunded multi-employer pension scheme. The academy has accounted for its contributions to the scheme as if it were a defined contribution scheme. The academy has set out above the information available on the scheme.

Local Government Pension Scheme

The LGPS is a funded defined benefit pension scheme, with the assets held in separate trustee administered funds. The total contribution made for the year ended 31 August 2020 was £173,000 (2019 - £174,000), of which employer's contributions totalled £77,000 (2019 - £78,000) and employees' contributions totalled £47,000 (2019 - £46,000). The agreed contribution rates for future years are 19.1 per cent for employers and 5.5 - 12 per cent for employees.

As described in note the LGPS obligation relates to the employees of the academy, who were the employees transferred as part of the conversion from the maintained school and new employees who were eligible to, and did, join the Scheme in the year. The obligation in respect of employees who transferred on conversion represents their cumulative service at both the predecessor school and the academy at the balance sheet date.

Parliament has agreed, at the request of the Secretary of State for Education, to a guarantee that, in the event of academy closure, outstanding Local Government Pension Scheme liabilities would be met by the Department for Education. The guarantee came into force on 18 July 2013.
