1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Accounting convention
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention as modified by the revaluation of certain
assets and in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard for Smaller Entities (effective April 2008).

Preparation of consolidated financial statements
The financial statements contain information about Oxford College of English Limited as an individual company and do not
contain consolidated financial information as the parent of a group. The company has taken the option under Section 398
of the Companies Act 2006 not to prepare consolidated financial statements.

Turnover
Turnover represents net invoiced sales of goods, excluding value added tax.

Tangible fixed assets

Plant and machinery - 20% on a reducing balance basis

No depreciation is provided on freehold land.

Investment property
In accordance with SSAP 19 investment properties have been revalued and the aggregate surplus has been transferred to
a revaluation reserve. No depreciation is provided in respect of freehold investment properties. The directors consider that
this accounting policy results in the accounts giving a true and fair view. Depreciation is only one of many factors reflected
in the annual valuation and the amount which might otherwise have been shown cannot be separately identified or
quantified.

date.

Foreign currencies
Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at the balance sheet
