| 1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
| Lyndhurst Preparatory School Limited is a |
| The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£). |
| 2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
| Basis of preparing the financial statements |
| Turnover |
| Turnover represents the total amount receivable by the company for tuition and other services provided and is recognised on a straight line basis over the period of provision. Where fees are invoiced in advance they are deferred in the Statement of Financial Position and recognised as turnover over the period of the service provision. Amounts received in respect of future periods are recognised in creditors as payments on account. The majority of the tuition fees invoiced by the company are invoiced termly in advance. |
| Property rent |
| Rental income is recognised over the term of the agreement. |
| Tangible fixed assets |
| Freehold property | - |
| Fixtures and fittings | - |
| Included within the cost of freehold property in the Statement of Financial Position is land totalling £636,352 which is not depreciated, therefore the rate of 2% on cost above relates solely to the property elements. |
| Government grants |
| Grants comprise amounts received under local authority education schemes, and are recognised in the Income Statement once the relevant performance conditions have been met. |
| Investment property |
| Investment property is shown at the directors' estimate of its fair value at each reporting date. Any adjustments arising from changes in fair value are recognised in the Income Statement. |
| Stocks |
| Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. |
| Taxation |
| Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Income Statement, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. |
| Current or deferred taxation assets and liabilities are not discounted. |
| Current tax is recognised at the amount of tax payable using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the statement of financial position date. |

| 2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
| Deferred tax |
| Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the statement of financial position date. |
| Timing differences arise from the inclusion of income and expenses in tax assessments in periods different from those in which they are recognised in financial statements. Deferred tax is measured using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the year end and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference. |
| Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits. |
| Operating leases |
| Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to the Income Statement on a straight line basis over the period of the lease. |
| Pension costs |
| The company participates in the Teachers' Pension Scheme ("the TPS") for its teaching staff. The TPS is an unfunded multi-employer defined benefit pension scheme governed by the Teachers' Pension Scheme Regulations 2014. Members contribute on a "pay as you go" basis with contributions from members and the employer being credited to the Exchequer. Retirement and other pension benefits are paid by public funds provided by Parliament. |
| The company also operates a defined contribution pension scheme for its non-teaching staff. Contributions payable to the company's pension scheme are charged to the Income Statement in the period to which they relate. |
