When compared to the previous period.. Income increased by £49,451 (froin £689,220), whi¢h is largely du¢ to an in¢r¢8se in student fees.. Expenditure increased by £40,495 (from £705.027), which is due to increased staff costs and incr¢a5¢5 in running Costs. As of 315t August 2024, bank 2ceounts have a credit balance of £136,592. The greatest financial risks relate to the oveTall operation and sustainability of the school, along with the maintenance and repair of the physical buildings and its environs. Given that over 85¢10 of the incoine 15 derived from th¢ school fees, there is a significanl risk if student enrolinent decrease5 or reinains static in future years as the school will then risk operating in a deficit (which is unsustainable}. Indeed, this has b¢et] the case for several of the years preceding this period. With the proposed VAT introduction by the Labour govemment this poses further risk to the school with loss of pupil numbers due to the additional VAT wsl on school fees. The Board of TTU5tees r¢eognises that ihe continued success of the school (including its financial viability and sustainability) needs to be based on a stTat¢gy fo¢u5ed on encouraging student enrolment and student retention, coupled with an Annual review of fees to fully coyer operating costs. Th¢ Capacity for growth is also recognised as key to increasing salaries for teacher5. Thi5 needs to be carefully balanced with the strong desire to Continue delivering a quality Sreiner Waldorf education, one that fuifils the 5¢hool's stated mission, vision and values. An agyement with the Cainphill Cominunilies has been reached to start repaying an historic l(Yan, to the ainount of £64.125 dating to 2003, with the first payment of £14,165 to be mad¢ in the financial year 2024125, reducing the school's liabilities over the next five years. Additionally deposits for pupil place5 have been ring-feneed and sepai?ted from the oper8tit]g cash flow to protect fi]nds. Reserves PDIicy The charity had TeseTves of £353,134 at the year end. This is made up of £175,052 in gen¢ral unrestricted fvnds, (£73,907) of designated funds and £251,989 of restricted fund5. The designated funds relate to a historic defined benefit pension liability. The Board of Trustees seek5 to actively manage th¢ finances of the school to ensure that activities are sustainable for the benefit of all stakeholders. Following best practice guidance, the Board of Trustees ha5 developed a Reserves Policy 85 this is an important part of financial management and forward f￿ancial planning. The Board of Trustees is defining strategies including designating a portion of in¢om¢ from f¢¢s, a calendar of p13nned fiindraising activities, and sustainabl¢ income from other activities and use of assets to generate sutTicient reserves that will service 3-6 months of operating cost5 should there be unexpected events (such as An annual operating deficil or unforeseen and anoit)alous expenditures) an(Vor shortfa115 in incoime (e.g. a reduction in ineoine associated with a decrease in 5tud¢nt numbers).

In response to th¢ risk of material misstatement I1￿ollgh iir¢gularities and non-compliance with laws and regulations. we d¢signed procedures which included, but wer¢ not liimited to- ensuring the engageinent teain had the appropriate knowledge alld expertise in order to be able lo identify and IEcognise any instances of fraud or non-complTan¢e with laws and regulations; we ideniified ihe law5 and regulations applicable to the company through dis¢ussion5 Wlth directots and manageinent and from our knowledge aiid experience of the sector; and ensuring the audit was carried oui wilh a level of professional scepticism.

Report of the Independent Auditor5 to the Trustees and Members of Holywood Steiner Sehool Limited We also communicated relevant identified laws and regulations and w)tential fraud risks to all engagement team members and significant component audit teams, and remained alert to any indications of fraud OF noncompliance with laws and r¢gulatioDs throughout the audit. There are inherent limitations in our audit procedures described above. The Inore removed that laws and r¢gulations are from financial transactions, the less likely it 15 that we would become aware of non-compliance. Auditing standards also limit the audit procedures required to identify non-compliance with laws and regulations to enquiry of the directors and other manage1￿¢￿t and the irtsp¢¢lion of regulatory and legal correspondenc¢, if any. Material Inisstateinents that arise due to fraud can be harder to detect than those that arise from error a5 th¢y may inYolv¢ deliberate con¢ealm¢nt or ¢ollusion.

An equity instrument is any contract that evid¢nces a residual int¢re5t in the assets of the charity after dedu¢ting all of its liabilitie5. The charity's policies foi. its major elasses of fjnancial assets and financial liabilities are set out below. Financial 8$sels Basic financial assets, including trade and other debtors and cash and bank balances are initially recognised at transaction price, unless the ￿Tangejllent constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction ig measuiEd at the Present value of the future receipts discount¢d at a Inarket rate of interest for a siihilar debt insirument. rinancing ti'an5actioiis are those in which payment is deferred beyond nomial business terms or is financed at a rate of interest that Is not a market rdte. Such asseis ar¢ subsequently earried at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, les$ any impairinenl. Financial liabilities Basic financial liabilities, including trade and other creditors and loans are initially recogni5¢d at transaciion price. unless the airdngeinent constiiiiles a financing transaction, where the debt instrujnent is measured at the present value of the ￿tU1'e payjnentsdiscounled at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument. Finallcing transactions are those in which payment is deferred beyond nonnal business term5 or is financed at a rate of in¢erest that is not a InaTket rate. Debt in5tTlllnents are siibsequ¢ntly cajyied at amortj5¢d cost, using ihe effective interest rate method. Impairment of financixl assets Financial asset5 Ineasur¢d at cost and amortised c05t are asscssed at the end of each reporting pei'iod for objective evidence of iinpairment. If obje¢¢ive evidence of impainnent is found, an iinpairinent10s9 15 Tecognised in the profit and loss account. For financial assets Ineasured at eost less impaimient. the iimpainllent loss is measured as the difference between the asset'5 carrying amount and the best estimaie of th¢ amount the charity would receive for the asset if it were to be sold at the reporting date. For financial assets measured at omortised cost, the impai17nent loss is Inea5ured a5 the difference b¢tween the asset's carrying amount and the present value of estijnated tash flow5 discounted at the as5¢t's original effective interesi rate. If the financial ￿Set has a variable interest rate, the discount rate foi In¢asuring any impairn]ent Ioss is the CUlTent effective interest rate deterinined under the cotitra¢t. If there is a decrease in the impairment 105s arising froin an everjl occurring after the impairment was re¢ognised, the iinpairinent is reversed, The reversal is such that the current carrying ainount does not exceed what the aTrying ainount would have been had the impairinent not previously be¢n recognised.
