HYMERS COLLEGE THE REPORT OF THE TRUSTEE FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 August 2021 ICONTINUED) Achlevements and Review of the Year Having successfully negotiated the considerable challenges caused by the coronaviru5 pandemic in the second half of the previous year, the Hymers staff put a great deal of thought and energy into ensuring the school was adY in September for the 'new normal. of educats'on under the shroud of Covid-19. Enhanced sanilisation, year group bubbles, face mask wearing, one-way systems, assemblies over Zoom.. these were some of the mitigation$ implemented in response to Government guidance to ensure that the highest standards of education for pupils across the age range were maintained. As the school year got undemay, it soon became apparent that constant vigilance, monitoring of the Covid case-rate both within school and in the wider community, regular liaison with the local Health Protection Team and ongoing open communication with the parent and pupil body woukl be requlred throughout the academic year. The previous year, 2019-20, had seen the school transition over the course of a weekend to remote learning for all pupi15. The challen9e of maintaining continuity of education mained throughoul 2020-21 but was joined by further tests.. that of providing a hybrKI model of education for the pupils which catered for the needs both of the majority who were in school as we15 as for those who were at home self-isolating, together with the requirement to maintain social distancing as faT as possible in a large school. And at all times, we strove to provide for our pupils the richest and broadest possible educational experience within the parameters that kept them and the wider school community safe. As the restrictions on wider sietY and accordingly school-life were relaxed, subsequently reimposed and then relaxed again, staff and pupils showed remarkable ingenuity and flexibility in switching beeen physical. on-site education and digital adivitses. During the period from the start of the Spring Tem in January until March 81h the school'5 entire Gurriculum, in its broadest sense, was delivered online. Before and after this period. however. wherever yve Gould, teachers and pupils enjoyed the opptsrtunities provided by face-lo-face interaction and learning. Throughout the year, the school's Senior Leadership Team and wder staff body prioritised the emotional and physical welfare of the pupils who were experiencing the most demanding time for young people in living memory. The school's puta'on for outstanding pastoral Ca was enhanced as every mean5 was found to promote regular communi¢ation with pupils, open channels of support, and ongoing opportunities to reach out, connect and do physical exercise with friends. Lockdown proved no impediment to these components of pupil welfare., in fa¢t, it was a stimulus for the development of more inventive means of providing them. The Senior School's No-zoom Day allowed pupils and stsff alike opportunities for creativity and fresh air, as well as much needed time away from their digital devices. Another way in whh the pupils, leaming was enriched was through regular Zoom ialks and presentation5 throughout the year from Old Hymerians who were keen to share their wisdom and insight with the younger generation. Embedded within the tapestry of pastoral care and broad educational opportunities provided by Hymers was a rich programme of Corycurricular activities and club5, many of which have long been a part of the wider life of the school but some of which sprang up in lockdown. While for most of the year the pandemic pul paid lo competitive fixtures against other schools, pupils enjoyed midweek and Saturday sports practices developing their fitness and skills alongside their peers. Concerts and plays in the Autumn and Spring Temis lacked a live audience but parents and supporters of the schwl were grateful to be able to watch their children perform online. The opportunrties that the Summer Term provided for some cricket and lennis fixtures against l¢xal schools as well as outdoor thèatrical and musical perfomiances were particularly appreciated. A further highlight of the school year was a rnemorable Activities Week that included the Senior School's first Sports Day fora number ofdecades. The school Continues lo provide its pupils with substantial opportunities for leadership. In the Junior School the Year6 Leadership Club oversaw the community's excellentfundraising efforts, while in the Senior School the prefect team was run by an expanded team of 14 Senior Prefects. Alongside the School Council. thi5 body play a vital role in decision-making within the school, as well as serving as superb role models for younger pupils. A further 51 students have the ro of Form Prefect, in which they allend some of the fomi periods of younger classes in the school and support the Tutor in pastoral care and the delivery of Personal, Social, Health and Econom EtJuGation IPSHE} lessons. 62 students have been trained to be 'Buddies' in a system where older students Gan support younger one5 with any specific difficulties they are experiencing.

School staff and pupils regulady engage wrfth the wder MMunity and provide mentoring. The Board of the Trustee has taken full account of the Charities Act 2011 regarding the Public Benefit required to be provided by independent schools in support of their charitable status and remain confident that such benefit is being provided within the stated aim of the charity to advance the education of boys and girls in or near the City of Kingslon-Upon-Hull, East Yorkshire, and North Lincolnshire. The school encourages local organisations to use its facilities, which include a swimming pool. all-weather pitch, theatre, sports hall and sports centre. In the past year the school has seen a wide range of organisations on campus. In a wider context, the school continues to make a significant contribution to the life of the city. Thls Is achieved in thr88 main ways.. 1. Through financial contributions to families who would otherwise be Unab to afford a Hymers College education., 2. By students volunteering in the ICal communty., 3. By offering outstanding facilities for use by the local community. FITnan¢lal Asslstance We continue to educate a significant number of children from a broad range of backgrounds at no Cost to the State.

HYMERS COLLEGE
THE REPORT OF THE TRUSTEE FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2021 (CONTINUED)
Reserves Policy
Currently, the College holds free reserves, which are defined as unrestricted funds excluding land and buildings. Free reserves include cash and other working capital balances.
As part of our strategy to build effective flexible financial reserves we evaluate our need for reserves and hold those reserves to ensure that we can deliver services.
- Financial impact of risk- There are a range of risks the charity faces, including the risk of an unforeseen drop in income and in the extreme, to political influences which may pose an existential threat to the College. Currently, we have disregarded remote risks until the likelihood is more predictable; we have decided to focus on risks which can be mitigated by prudent planning.
To ensure that there is no significant disruption to our charitable activities, holding an appropriate level of reserves in cash will enable the organisation to respond to unforeseen reductions in income, which we determine as a low risk in current circumstances; or additional expenditure such as increases in Teachers` pension contributions.
- Working capital- A significant proportion of our reserves are represented by cash, trade debtors and stock. We maintain a large proportion of our current assets in cash to reduce dependency on borrowing and cut the cost of financing our services, these cash reserves meet day to day liabilities.
Our reserves policy defines the framework we have in place to determine the level of reserves we consider to be necessary for our organisation and draws upon guidance provided by the Charity Commissioners` in CC19.
Levels of working capital do not vary materially from year to year as a result of stable income levels and fixed costs.
As of 31 August 2021, the School held £1,455,791 of free reserves, ie funds which the School could spend on any of its charitable purposes (an increase of £193,057 on the previous year). The target range of reserves is £750k - £1.5m, ideally held as cash funds or short term investments rather than a combination including stocks and debtors. This figure would be in addition to restricted funds which cannot be utilised for operational expenses.
The School has high fixed costs, mainly due to salaries and premises costs and it would be very difficult to react to a significant un-controlled fall in core income. The cost of paying salaries and associated costs per month is in excess of £500k. A sharp decline in income would most likely result in the School having to make redundancies and further operational cost savings. A reserves figure of £1.7m would provide up to three months cover for salaries and expenses and avail time for planning and borrowing/overdraft arrangements, should income drop suddenly and unexpectedly.
Current reserves are within the target range and will be reviewed as part of investment planning in 2021/22.
Commitments and long-term plans
The Board of the Trustee remain committed to developing the land and buildings which form the entire campus and will approve capital projects, from time to time, when funds permit. To ensure the long-term viability of the charity we may need to reduce our reserves to fund capital projects, then re-build those reserves over several years, from operational surpluses. Subsequent to the year-end the decision was taken to expand the College’s offering through the acquisition of Hessle Mount, a local school covering pre-school and early years education. This arrangement is expected to complete over Summer 2022.

Annual Report is inconsistent in any material respect with the financial stalemenls,. or the parent charity has not kept sufficient accountsng records.. or the pargnt Gharity's finanGial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and relurns", or we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit. R•spon8ibilities of Tru81•0 A5 explained more fully in the Trustees, Responsibilities Statement set out on page 12, the Iruslees are responsible for the preparation of the financial st8temenls and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statèmènts that are free from material misslatemenL whether due lo fraud or emr. In preparing the financial ststements. the trustees are responsible for assessing the group and the parent charty's ability to continue as a going concem, disclosing, as applicable. matter5 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 bul to do so. Audltor's Responslbilities for Ihe Audlt of the Financlal Ststement8 We have been appointed as auditors under the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance wth regulations made under that Act. Our objecttves are lo obtain reasonable assurance about whether the group and parent financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whelhei éue to fraud or error, and lo issue an auditor'5 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 IUKI will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can aris8 from fraud or error and are considered mater1 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. Irregularf(ies, including fraud, are instances of non40mplkqn¢e with laws and regulats'ons. We d8sign procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misslatemenls in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The specific procedures for this engagement and the extent to which these are Capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud are detailed bglow. Identifying and assessing risks related lo irregularities.. We assessed the susceplibilily of the group and parent Gharily's financial statements lo material misslatemenl and how fraud might occur, including through discussions with the trusteos, discussions within our audit team planning meeting, updating our re¢ord of internal controls and ensuring these controls operated as inlerided. We evaluated possible incentive5 and opportunities for fraudulent manipulation of the financial statements. We identified laws and regulations that are of significance in the context of the group and parent charity by discussKsns with trustees and updating our understanding of the sector in which the group and parent charity operate. Laws and regulations of direct significance in the ¢ontext of the group and parent charity include the Charities Act 2011, the Charities (Accounts and Report$l Regulations 2008 and guidance issued by the Charity Commission for England and Wales, the Independent School Standards are found in the Education and Skills Act 2008 and guidance issued by the Department for Education. 15-
HYMERS COLLEGE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS, REPORT TO THE BOARD OF THE TRUSTEE OF HYMERS COLLEGE Audlt response lo risks identified: We considered the extent of compliance with these laws and regulations as part of our audit procedures on the related financial statement items inGluding a review of financial statement disclosures. We reviewed the parent charity's records of breaches of laws and regulations, minutes of meetings and correspondenc8 with relevant authorities to identify potential material misstatements arising. We discussed the parent Charity's pOIleS and procedures for compliance with laws and regulats'ons with members of management responsible for compliance. During the planning meeting with the audit team, the engagement partner drew attention to the key areas which might involve non-¢ompliance with laws and regulats'ons or fraud. We enquired of management whether they were aware of any instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations or knowledge of any actual, suspected or alleged fraud. We a¢Jdres$ed the risk of frau¢J through management overrsde of ¢ontrol$ by testing the appropriateness of journal entries and identifying any significant transaclions that were unusual or outside the normal Course of business. We a$se$sed whether judgements made in making aoUntIng 8Stimates gave rise lo a possible indication of management bias. At the completion stage of the audit, the engagement partnerfs review included ensuring that the team had approached their work with appropriate professional $¢epli¢i$m and thus the capacrty to identify non-eompliance with law$ and regulab'ons and fraud. There are inherent limitslions in the audit procedures descnbed above and the further removed non- ComplnCe with laws and regulations is from the events and transactions reflected in the finan¢ial statements, the less likely we would become aware of it. Also, th8 risk of not detecting a malenal misststement due to fraud is higher than the nsk of not detecting one resulting from error, as fraud may involve deliberate concealment by, for example, forgery or intentional misrepresentations, or through collusion. A further description of our responsibilities is available on the Financial Reporting Council's websrte at.. www.frc.or .uklaudilorsres onsibililies. This description fonns part of our auditorfs report. Use of Our Roport Thls report is made solely to the parent chanty's tw$tees, as a body, in accordance with Part4 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might stale to the parent charity trustees those mallers we are required to slate to them in an auditor's report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent pemiitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility lo anyone other than the parent charity and the parent charity's trustees as a body, for our audit work. for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

HYMERS COLLEGE NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 August 2021 (CONTINUED) 23. PENSIONS There are two pension schemes in operation for employee$ of Hymers College. These are The Pensions Trust Growth PL8n for support stsff and the Teachers, Pension Scheme for teaching staff. The total pension cost to the Charity for the year was £983.41312020.' £972,722). Both schemes are multi-employer schemes. It is not possible for thè Charity to obtain sufficient informats'on to enable it to aGcounl for the schemes as defined benefit schemes. Therefore, it accounts for the schemes as defined contribution schemes in line with paragraph 17.18 of the Charib'es SORP 2019 IFRS 102). The Ponsions Trust Growth Plan The Charrty participates in the scheme which provides benefits to some 950 non-associated participating employers. The scheme is a defined benefit scheme in the UK. The scheme is subject to the funding legislation outlined in the Pensions Act 2004 which came into force on 30 December2005. This, togetherwilh documents issued by the Pensions Regulator and Technical Actuarial Standards issued by the Financial Reporting Council, set out the framework for funding defined benefit occupational pension schemes in the UK. The scheme is classified as a'last-man stsnding arrangemenv. Therefore, the Charity is potenlially liable for other participating employers, obligations if th05e employers are unable to meet their share of the scheme efieil following withdrawal from the scheme. Participating employers are legally required to meet their share of the scheme deficit on an annuity purchase basis on withdrawal from the scheme. A full actuarial valuation for the scheme was carried out at 30 September2017. This valuation showed assets cf £794.9m, liabiltties of £926.4m and a defiGil of £131.5m. To eliminate this funding shortfall, the trustee has asked the participating employers to pay additional contributions lo the scheme as follows.. DefIt contributnS From 1 April 2019 to 31 January 2025.. £11,243,000 per annum (payable monthly and in¢asing by 3% each year on 1 April). The recovery plan contributions are allocated to each participating employer in lin8 with their estimated share of the Series 1 and Series 2 scheme liabilities. Where the scheme is in defi¢it and where the ¢harity has agreed to a deficit funding arrangement the charity Tecognises a liability for this obligats'on. The amount recognised is the net present value of the deficit reduction contributions payable under the agreement that relates to the deficit. The present value is calculated using the discount rate detsiled in these disclosures. The unwinding of the discount rate is recognised as a finance cost.

HYMERS COLLEGE NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 August 2021 ICONTINUEDI PENSIONS {CONTINUED Tea¢hors' Pen81on Schème The TPS is an unfijnded mulliomployer defined b8nefits pension scheme governed by The Teachers. Pensions Regulations 2010 las amended} and The Teachers, Pension Schème Regulations 2014 las amended). Members contribute on a 'pay as you go. basis with contributions from members 2nd the employer being credited lo the Exchequer. Retirement and other pension benefits are paid by public funds provided by Parliament. The employer contribution rate is sel by the Secretsry of State following scheme valuations undertaken by the Government Actuary's Department. The most recent actuarial valuatton of the TPS was prepared as at 31 March 2016 and the Valuation Report, which was published in March 2019, confirned that the employer contribution rate for the TPS would increase from 16.40k to 23.60/0 from 1 September 2019. Employers are also required lo pay a scheme adminislrats'on levy of 0.080kn giving a total employer contribution rate of 23.68°h. The 31 March 2016 Valuation Report was prepaod in accordance with the benefits sel out in the scheme regulations and under the approach specified in the Directions, as they applied at 5 March 2019. However. the assumptions were considered and sel by the Department for Education prior lo the ruling in the 'McCloudlSargeant case,. Thi5 case has required the courts to consider case5 regarding the implementslion of the 2015 refomis to Public Service Pensions including the Teachers, Pensions. On 27 June 2019 the Supreme Court denied the government permission lo appeal the Court of Appeal's judgment that transitional provisions introduced lo the refomied pension s¢hemes in 2015 gave rise to unlawful age discrimination. The govemmenl is respecting the Court's decision and has said il will engage fully with the Employment Tribunal as well as employer and member representatives lo agree how the discriminations will be remedied. The government announced on 4 February 2021 that il intends to proceed with a deferred choice underpin under which members will be able to choose either legacy or reformed scheme benefits in respect of their service during the penod beeen 1 April 2015 and 31 March 2022 al the point they become payable. The TPS is subject to a cost cap mechanism which was pul in place to protect taxpayers against unforeseen changes in scheme 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 following the Court of Appeal's ruling in the Mccloudlsargeant case and until there is certainty about the value of pensions lo employees from April 2015 onwards. The pause was lifted in July 2020, and consultation was launchèd on 24 June on proposed changes lo the cost control mechanisrn following a review by the Government Actuary. The consultation olosed to response on 19 August 2021 and the Govemment Is currently analysing the responses. In V of the above ruling5 and decisions the assumptions used in the 31 March 2016 Actuarial Valuation may become inappropriate. In this scenario, a valuation prepared In accordan with revised benefits and suitably revised assumptions would yield different results than those contained in the Actuarial Valuation. Until the Consultation and the cost Gap mechanism review are completed it is not possible lo conclude on any financial impact or future changes lo the contribution rates of the TPS. Accordingly no provision for any additional past benefit pension costs is included in these financial statements. The charity also contributes to tsvo group personal pension plans for support staff, the costs of which are also charged directly to the statement of financial aclivib'es. 51
