SHREWSBURY SCHOOL
GOVERNORS. REPORT ICONTINUEDI
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2020
The Goveming Body agreed lo make adjustments to redu￿ the lees al both schools for Summer Temi via an
Extra￿rdinary Governing Body meeting in March 2020. Atthough the schools have been able to recoup some of
the costs of boarding staff via the furfough scheme ICJRSI, both schools had an operational deficit for the
Summer Temi 2020. Boarding and other staff vtho had no work while the sch¢x)I sites were shut were pul on
furlough leave lor Apfil, May and June 2020. The charity received £707,984 in fudough payments under the
CJRS.
This year, Shrewsbury Schcol numbers averaged 808 12019 7901 pupils of whom 612 12019 - 6191 were
boarders and 19612019 - 171} were day pupils. PackwocA Haugh Sehool numbers averaged 180 of whorn 68
were boarders.
Shrewsbury School pupil numbers al the stsrt of the 2020r21 academic year were 819. and Packwood Haugh
had 174 pupils.
11 was an extra-ordinary year for A Levels and GCSES. The exams were cancelled and, after somè last minute
changes, pupils had a Choi￿ bewn their Cenlre Assessed Grades which were subject lo adiuslmenl via an
algorithm and the original grades sel by the school. As a resur( of this 84.6°h of A Level candidates received the
equivalent of A. lo B. and 71.40￿ of GCSE candidates received grades A. lo A. Given the confusion ol the
assessment process il is not really appropriate to make the usual c(ynparalives lo previous years. What can be
said is that these resutts are a lair sel ol outcomes for the pupils in question. Nobody has received a grade that
is lower than what is just. and several have exceeded even the schcol's appraisal of Iheif abilrty as a result ol the
Ofqual Algorithm.
Outside the elassroom Shrewsbury School and Packwcod Haugh Sehool continued provide a wide range ol co
curricular activities with many notable artislic perfom)ances, and achievements on the playing field.

GOVERNORS. REPORT ICONTINUEDI
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2020
The annual revenue expendrture requ1￿mentS of the School a￿ generalty met from annual income. Prudent
budgeting and Iighl financial control are deSig￿d to ensure that adequate but not excessive cash headroom is
maintained, and this is supported by a seasonal overdraft facility. Cash balances have been held al a higher than
Usual level during the recent pandemic as a precaution against uncertainty.
The Governors are confident that the capital development plan can be achieved by the policies sel out above,
supported by prudent borrowing and support from Shrew5bury School Foundation.
The Governors have established a designated fund. whith aims lo provide bur5arial support lo enabl8 pupils lo
attend the School. The intention of the Govemors is to all¢xale a proportion of the School'5 commercial income
each year. based on an agreed calculation. subject to operating requirements. The intention is to build up the
fund in the nexl 2 10 3 years, and al that point. income from Il will be used lo provide bursarial support lo pupils
attending the School. During the year. the Tru51ees allccated £381,531 to the fund. Al the year end the value of
this designated fund was £1,606,097.
INVESTMENT POLICY
The Governofs, as Trustees, have wide p¢)wers lo invest in propety and secLtrities. including stocks and shares.
The Governors review, on a regular basis, the investment profile of the Sch¢Jol. the risks and returns achieved
and the likely fvlure performance.
The fees in advance funds are invested in a largeled relum lund wrth the aim of generating above inflation
returns, while providing the securty of investments backing the tsvo years fees in advance liabilities.
The policy of the School with regard lo end(Med and designated investments is lo ensure that they produ¢0 a
regular and growing income stream, together wth capital growth. Thi5 policy is implemented by the School's
investment advisors Rathbones Investment Managers. Funds are invested either directly in equities and
corporate bonds, or in unilised funds and other 8ulhorised instruments both in the UK and overseas. The
Investment Committee has agreed an internal benchmarking target. with Ralhbones and the performance of the
investments are ben¢hmarked against this largel. The benchmark perfomiance for the year lo 31 July 2020 was
a negative 3.960A. The School's investments averaged a negative return for the same period of 7.20Vo.
PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
As explained above. the Governors have consider8d the principal risks and uncertainties facing the School. The
economic clirnale, especially during the COWD 19 pandemic. affects the ability of parents lo afford the school
fees, and the affordability of fees is considered as an important factor in the long term financial planning. In
lemis of unexpected costs. the Governors ensure that insurance is in place for known and insurable risk5. With
a large built eslale, the School also monitors and plans for foreseeable future building repairs. referencing lo the
condition survey conducted in 2090. The management learn also monitor carelully the level of scholarships and
bursaries lo ensur8 that grant commrtmenls are maintained at a sustainable level, carefully reviewing the futurè
grant funding available from Shrewsbury School Foundation.
The School has also considered non-finaneial risks and as the healih antj safety of the pupils and staff is
paramount. they consider any potential breach to be a principal risk. To miligale this they have developed
policies lo ensure the regulations and gumlelines for the weware of pupils and staff are observed.
FUTURE PLANS
The communication and impfementation of the rewsed strategic plan for the next decade
The continued development of a cross sector programme of partnership community engagement
Revision of the Bursaries policy with a focus on Iransformalive bursaries
The extension and renovation of Rigg's Hall Iconslruthon phase July 2020 to March 20211.

27. Penslon commitments {continued)
The 31 March 2016 Valuation Report was pcepared in accordance with the benefi15 Sel out In the scheme
regulations and untler the approach specified in the DireCt￿nS. as they applied al 5 March 2019. However.
the assumptions were considered an¢J sel by the Department for Education prior to the fuling in the
'M¢CloudlSargeanl case,. This case has required the courts to consider cases regarding the
implemenlalion of the 2015 relonns lo Public Serwce Pensions including the Teachers, Pensions.
On 27 June 2019. the sup￿rne Court denied the govemmenl pemiis$ion lo appeal the Court ol Appeal's
judgment that transitional piovisions introduced lo the refomied pension schemes in 2015 gave rise lo
unlawful age discrimination. The govefnmenl is respecting the Court's decision and has said Il will engage
fully with the Employment Tribunal. as well as empbyer and member represenlalives, lo agree how the
discrimination5 will be remedied. A consuttation wa$ launched by the govemmenl on 16 Juty 2020, and
closes lo responses on 11 October 2020.
The TPS is subject lo a cost cap mechanism which was pul in place lo protect taxpayers against
unforeseen changes In scherne costs. The Chief Secretary lo 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 mechanism follwing the Court of Appeal's ruling in the Mccloudlsargeant case and until there is
certainly about Ihe value of pensions lo employees from April 2015 onwards. The pause was lifted in July
2020 and the government is preparing lo completè the cost conlrol element of the 2016 valuations. which
is expected lo be completed in 2021.
In view of the above rulings and decisions, the assLrmplions used in the 31 March 2016 Actuarial V81ualion
may become inappropriate. In this scenario. a valuation prepared in accordance with revised benefits and
suilabfy revised assumptions would yield different results than those contsined in the Actuarial Valuation.
Until the consuttalion and the cost cap mechanism rewew are completed rt is not possible lo conclude on
any financial impact or fvIuTe Changes to the contribution rale$ of the TPS. Accordingly, no provision for
any addrtional past bènefit pension costs is included in these financial slalemèntS.
