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

References to "the Charity" in the report and financial statements relate to Hertsmere Primary School Trust.

References to "the School" refer to Hertsmere Jewish Primary School (the voluntary aided state primary school).

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Objectives and aims
The objects of the Charity are as follows:

(i) The advancement of religious and secular education in regard to the School and its pupils;
(ii) To advance the Jewish religion, to relieve poverty or for any charitable purpose beneficial to the
community by the provision of facilities or otherwise as the Board shall from time to time
determine.

Significant activities
The principal activity of the Charity is that of the advancement of religious and secular education in regard to the School and its pupils. During the year further enhancements and improvements were made to the school and the Charity continued to provide the school with grants to enable the school to continue to provide excellent teaching and facilities.

Public benefit

FINANCIAL REVIEW
Reserves policy
The current level of free reserves, being the unrestricted funds not committed or invested in tangible fixed assets, is £183,732 (2021: £193,422). Having regard to the future development of the School, the Directors have set a target level of free reserves of £375,000 which equates to approximately 12 months of resources expended. This will enable the Charity to continue its current activities and allow it to respond quickly in the event of an emergency. They intend to continue their fundraising efforts with a view to achieving the target level so that the Charity will be well placed to respond to the needs of the School. The reserves policy is reviewed annually.

The Board of Directors of the Charity is a self appointed body. The Directors of the Charity also act as Custodian Trustees for the Charity.

Following an inadequate Offset inspection in January 2019 the School was brokered to a sponsor academy by the Department for Education. On 1 October 2019, they transferred from Hertfordshire Local Authority control to become part of the Jewish Community Academy Trust, a Multi Academy Trust. The day to day running of the School, including those activities which are funded by the Charity, are delegated to the Head Teacher. Its activities are monitored by a Board of Trustees.

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of
Hertsmere Jewish Primary School Trust

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Hertsmere Jewish Primary School Trust ('the Company')
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 August 2023.

Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act').

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as carried out under Section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act.

Independent examiner's statement
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe:

1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by Section 386 of the 2006 Act; or
2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or
3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of Section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or
4. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)).

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

Notes to the Financial Statements
for the Year Ended 31 August 2023

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements
The financial statements of the charitable company, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) 'Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

Income
All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.

Expenditure
Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.

Grants offered subject to conditions which have not been met at the year end date are noted as a commitment but not accrued as expenditure.

Grants made by the Charity to the School to support the costs the School incurs in respect of religious and secular education are regarded as costs in furtherance of the Charity's objects.

Grants payable in both the current and preceding period relate to payments to fund costs incurred by the School in connection with religious and secular education, the majority of which related to staff costs.

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


Freehold property - in accordance with the property
Fixtures and fittings - 20% on reducing balance

Taxation
