INTRODUCTION |
The Trustees, who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charitable company for the year ended 31st August 2023. The Trustees have adopted the provisions of Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their financial statements in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standards applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019). |

The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Report of the Trustees and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice), including Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland". |
Company law requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure of the charitable company for that period.

They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. |

Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions. |

Report of the Trustees |
for the Year Ended 31 August 2023 |
THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES AND DECISION MAKING |
The Trustees who served as both Trustees and as directors of the charitable company during the year are shown above. Trustees are recruited to provide a broad range of complementary professional, management and social skills which are deemed suitable for and in harmony with the charitable company's charitable objects. Board meetings have been held by way of Zoom video conferencing supplemented by the Trustees receiving regular reports and bulletins from the Bursar. The Trustees are advised and guided by the Bursar and they and he seek professional advice whenever they deem it necessary. The Trustees endeavour to make all their decisions unanimously. All decisions which they made for this accounting year were made unanimously. None of the Trustees claimed or were paid any fees or reimbursed any expenses they incurred. |
RISK MANAGEMENT |
The Trustees are responsible for the monitoring and management of the risks faced by the charitable company and are advised and assisted in that regard by the Bursar. Risks are identified, assessed and provided against on a regular ongoing basis, as are the controls and risk prevention systems that are in place. Consequently, the Trustees believe that those controls and systems have allowed and should continue to allow major risks to be identified, avoided and mitigated as far as possible within the resources available to the charitable company.There were no material, reportable matters arising from risk management processes during the year. |
PURPOSE, MAIN ACTIVITIES AND OBJECTIVES |
The charitable company's main charitable purpose is to promote and to provide for the advancement of education of children in schools located in Surrey, West Sussex and Hampshire which are designed to give a sound Christian and moral basis to their pupils. This financial year the charitable company has once again done so by granting bursaries to assist parents and guardians in the payment of school fees for children in school Years 6 to 8. However due to the Trust's depleting funds, that qualifying age range will be changed and restricted to pupils who will be in school Years 7 to 8 for new bursary applications for the 2024-2025 academic year. The charitable company's charitable activities will then cease with effect from 1 September 2025. The public benefit from the granting of bursaries has constituted the charitable company's sole charitable activity during this financial year and that will continue to be the case until 31 August 2025. |
ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE |
The charitable company's bursary policy and procedures |
Before the charitable company's bursary application process began in May 2023 for the 2023-2024 academic year, the Trustees reviewed the charitable company's Bursary Policy, Application Form and its website policy guidelines, and decided to take into account the cost-of-living crisis and any continuing financial and personal consequences and implications which the COVID-19 pandemic was still having upon family health, finances and parents' ability to pay school fees. |
As for the previous year, the Trustees resolved: to (a) actively encourage parents whose children were awarded bursaries for the 2022-2023 academic year, and who would age-qualify for a bursary for the 2023-2024 academic year, to apply again to the Trust for a bursary, and (b) seek out other parents with children attending independent schools, or who wanted their children to attend independent schools, in Surrey, West Sussex and Hampshire and who needed help in paying school fees for the 2023-2024 academic year. |
Accordingly, the Bursar contacted the Heads and Bursars of many independent fee-paying schools in the area and asked them to draw to the attention of parents who might need financial help in paying school fees the existence and purpose of the charitable company and to encourage such parents to make a bursary application for the 2023-2024 academic year. In addition, the Bursar contacted parents of children who were currently enjoying a bursary from the charitable company, and who would age qualify for a bursary for the 2023-2024 academic year, informing them that the charitable company would take into account the growing cost of living crisis and any financial effect the pandemic was continuing or was expected to have upon their family finances and their ability to pay, or to contribute towards paying, school fees for the 2023-2024 academic year. |

Report of the Trustees |
for the Year Ended 31 August 2023 |
The grant of bursaries for the 2022-2023 Academic Year |
For the 2022-2023 academic year, the charitable company received twenty-nine bursary applications and granted twenty-five bursaries for children attending eleven independent schools in Surrey, West Sussex and Hampshire. Those bursaries had a total value amounting to £236,488, which represented approximately 22% of the total funds held by the charitable company as its year-end on 31 August 2022. |
The grant of bursaries for the 2023-2024 Academic Year |
For the 2023-2024 academic year, the charitable company received thirty-two bursary applications and granted twenty-nine bursaries for children attending schools in Surrey, West Sussex and Hampshire, comprising twelve independent schools and one state secondary school with academy status (Gordon's School) which charges fees for virtual boarders. Those bursaries had a value amounting to £304,011 which represented approximately 42% of the total funds held by the charitable company as at the charitable company's year-end on 31 August 2023. |
The charitable company's IT systems |
The charitable company's IT systems continued to ensure that all financial and personal information provided by applicants for bursaries, or created and processed by the charitable company in digital form, enjoyed enhanced protection from: (i) the hosted desktop services which the charitable company receives from its hosted desktop provider (and which ensures that all the charitable company's data is protected to the highest level available to the charitable company with servers being located in two of Europe's most secure data centres, accredited and certified to ISO27001 and PCI DSS security standards), and (ii) the charitable company's firewall and malware products and other multi-layered internet IT security services provided and updated regularly by ESET Internet Security. |
General Data Protection Regulation |
Since the implementation of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) in May 2018, the charitable company has continued to keep under review the way in which it receives, handles, processes, stores and disposes of the financial and personal information which it receives every year from parents applying for bursaries for their children. The Bursar conducts information audits across the charitable company's charitable activities identifying the data which the charitable company processes and how it flows through and out of those charitable activities. |
During each year the Bursar reviews the Trust's privacy impact assessment employed to identify, reduce and where possible eliminate the privacy risks associated with the charitable company's annual bursary application process. In consequence, the charitable company is satisfied that all aspects of its activities are fully compliant with the GDPR and Data Protection legislation. |
FINANCIAL REVIEW - THE BURSARY FUND, INVESTMENTS AND RESERVES POLICY |
The Bursary Fund |
As at 31 August 2023, total unrestricted funds held in the Bursary Fund stood at £726,433. There were no restricted funds, and the charitable company held no other assets. |
Banking and Investments |
The charitable company operates two bank accounts held with Lloyds Bank Plc, being: an ordinary business current account and a interest bearing deposit account. As at 31 August 2023, the credit balance of those accounts was £342,856. The charitable company has no bank loans or overdraft facilities and does not need, nor anticipates that it will ever need, any such financial support. The charitable company's remaining funds continued to be invested with abrdn plc (formerly known as Standard Life Aberdeen plc) in its Balanced Bridge Fund, and in its Phoenix Fund. |
The Heights Educational Bursary Trust |
Limited (Registered number: 02039847) |
Previously known as |
Haslemere Preparatory School Trust |
Report of the Trustees |
for the Year Ended 31 August 2023 |
The Balanced Bridge Fund is an authorised unit trust and a balanced multi-asset fund that targets an income of 3.5% and is one of abrdn plc's core offerings for many clients (including many charities) and has been running for more than 20 years, drawing on the company's global investment experience and expertise. It is classified as a medium risk fund and has a benchmark of 60% equities, 30% bonds and 10% cash. The Phoenix Fund was set up in 2014 and is also an authorised unit trust and a well-diversified medium-low risk fund with focus on capital preservation. It has a cash +2% performance target and a strong track record of out-performance. |
abrdn plc sends the charitable company quarterly reports and year-end reports which the charitable company's Independent Financial Adviser, Murray West Associates Limited, reviews and discusses with the Trust's Bursar and they in turn then report to the Trustees with full details along with their individual comments and advice on the performance of both funds and any action they believe needs to be taken. |
The charitable company's investment objectives are for a balanced return of income and capital with a performance target of Consumer Price Index +2% based on a medium low risk profile and with all income being reinvested. During this accounting year the Balanced Bridge Fund and the Phoenix Fund have each performed well given the rise in inflation, the cost of living crisis and the financial consequences of Russia's invasion of Ukraine upon investment markets around the world. As at 31 August 2023, the total value of the charitable company's investments with abrdn plc stood at £385,072, being £1,896 below book cost. |
At the beginning of September 2023, abrdn PLC transferred its discretionary fund management business (abrdn Capital Ltd and its subsidiaries), including the charitable company's investment portfolio, to LGT Wealth Management Ltd, which is the largest family-owned private banking and asset management Group in the world, employing 4500 people across 20 locations globally with some £250bn under management. Following such transfer, the charitable company's funds continued to be held and invested in the Balanced Bridge Fund and the Phoenix Fund. |
Investment Policy and Reserves Policy |
The charitable company's investment policy is focussed on both the capital preservation of its investments and achieving the performance targets of the Balanced Bridge Fund and the Phoenix Fund mentioned above. |
The charitable company's reserves policy has been designed to ensure it meets its commitments for making each academic year's bursary payments in full and pays the cost and expenses of running its day-to-day affairs as they arise; achievement of these objectives is guaranteed by the charitable company always holding sufficient cash in its ordinary business current accounts and its interest-bearing deposit account held with Lloyds Bank Plc. |
PUBLIC BENEFIT |
The Trustees confirm that (i) throughout the accounting year they have complied with all guidances concerning the operation of the public benefit requirement published by the Charity Commission pursuant to section 17 of the Charities Act 2011, and (ii) at all times the charitable company has been administered and has been operated exclusively for its charitable purposes. The charitable company's bursary policy continues to be means-tested and is gender, socially and racially neutral and has been widened to bring into account other factors which could make payment of school fees unexpectedly difficult and stressful, such as a parent suffering a serious illness or accident or the social needs of the child where, for example, they have suffered and been materially affected by bullying or racial abuse, or some other family crisis. |
THE CHARITABLE COMPANY'S INDEPENDENT EXAMINER |
Reason for and person appointed |
Under the legislation for Charity reporting and accounting, and because the charitable company's gross annual income for the foreseeable future will not exceed £1,000,000, Nikki Roberts of Traviss & Co Ltd has been retained by the charitable company to be its Independent Examiner of the charitable company's accounts. |
