Preparation of consolidated financial statements
The financial statements contain information about Oxford College of English Limited as an individual

statements.

Turnover

Tangible fixed assets
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.

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.
