NOTES TO THE ABBREVIATED ACCOUNTS |
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST AUGUST 2014 |
1. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Accounting convention |
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with the |
Financial Reporting Standard for Smaller Entities (effective April 2008). |
Turnover |
Income represents school fees and extra charges relating to the three academic terms in the year and income from |
other activities. Fees invoiced in advance are carried forward for credit in the period to which they relate. |
Goodwill |
Tangible fixed assets |
Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less depreciation. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off |
the cost of fixed assets, less their estimated residual value, over their expected useful lives on the following basis: |
Improvements to property | - Over the initial term of the lease plus 20 years |
Fixtures and fittings | - 5% straight line |
Motor vehicles | - 25% reducing balance |
Computer equipment | - 25% reducing balance |
Deferred tax |
Deferred taxation has not been provided in these accounts as in the opinion of the directors there is reasonable |
probability that the asset will not arise in the foreseeable future. This does not comply with Financial Reporting |
Standard for Smaller Entities (effective April 2008) paragraph 9.4. If full provision for deferred taxation was |
made in these accounts there would be a liability at 31 August 2014 of £23,205 (2013: £12,153). |
Hire purchase and leasing commitments |
Assets obtained under hire purchase contracts or finance leases are capitalised in the balance sheet. Those held |
under hire purchase contracts are depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Those held under finance leases |
are depreciated over their estimated useful lives or the lease term, whichever is the shorter. |
The interest element of these obligations is charged to the profit and loss account over the relevant period. The |
capital element of the future payments is treated as a liability. |
Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits |
Teaching staff are members of the Teachers' Pension Scheme (TPS), a defined benefit scheme administered by |
the Teachers Pension Agency. Contributions to the Scheme are charged to the Profit and Loss account as they |
fall due. The Teachers Pension Scheme is an unfunded scheme. Contributions on a "pay as you go" basis are |
credited to the Exchequer under arrangements governed by the Superannuation Act 1972. Actuarial valuations |
are carried out on a notional set of investments. Under the definitions set out in Financial Reporting Standard 17 |
Retirement Benefits, the Teachers Pension Scheme is a multi-employer pension scheme. The School is unable to |
identify its share of the underlying (notional) assets and liabilities of the scheme. Accordingly, under Financial |
Reporting Standard 17 Retirement Benefits the scheme is accounted for as if it were a defined contribution |
scheme. |
The School also contributes to personal pension schemes for non-teaching staff. Contributions are made by the |
employer. Contributions are charged to the profit and loss account as they fall due. |
