INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S STATEMENT I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect: 1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or 2. the financial statements do not accord with those records; or 3. the financial statements do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 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.

GENERAL INFORMATION The charity is a public benefit entity and a registered charity in England and Wales. The address of the principal office is The Birches, Murley Moss Lane, Kendal, Cumbria LA9 7NL. The Hawkshead Grammar School museum and library is situated at Main Street, Hawkshead, Cumbria LA22 0NT. 2. STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE These financial statements have been prepared in compliance with FRS 102, 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland', the 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) (Charities SORP (FRS 102)) and the Charities Act 2011. 3. ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of preparation The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, as modified by the revaluation of certain financial assets and liabilities and investment properties measured at fair value through income or expenditure. The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the entity. Going concern There are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue. Transition to FRS 102 The entity transitioned from previous UK GAAP to FRS 102 as at 1 November 2015. Details of how FRS 102 has affected the reported financial position and financial performance is given in note 20. Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported. These estimates and judgements are continually reviewed and are based on experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The original costs or gifted values of some of the endowment land and properties are not known, dating back many decades before modern accounting standards began. Some endowment assets are carried at nil cost and some carrying amounts reflect the cost of major restoration work only. Fund accounting Endowment funds, representing freehold land and properties stated at cost, are held for the benefit of the charity as capital funds. The lettings income and associated expenditure is unrestricted. - 4 - Hawkshead Grammar School Foundation Notes to the Financial Statements (continued) Year ended 31 October 2017 3. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) Incoming resources All income is included in the statement of financial activities when entitlement has passed to the charity, it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the charity and the amount can be reliably measured. Resources expended Expenses are recognised on an accruals basis. Costs that are shared by the Museum and the Library are apportioned on an estimated area/consumption basis of 87.5% and 12.5% to the Museum and Library activities respectively. Governance costs are primarily associated with the charity's constitutional and statutory obligations. Tangible assets All tangible fixed assets are initially recorded at cost. No depreciation is charged on the freehold land and properties because they are maintained in such a state of repair that their estimated residual value is not less than their cost. Some of the endowment land and properties are held for investment purposes, though there is no intention ever to sell them. The rental income is shown in investment income in the notes to the accounts. Under FRS102 investment property should initially be recorded at cost and then revalued at fair value at each reporting date. However, the trustees consider that a reliable measure of fair value is not available for any of the investment land and properties without undue cost or effort. Under FRS102 the investment land and properties are therefore carried as tangible assets at cost until it is expected that fair value will be reliably measurable on an on-going basis. Investments Unlisted equity investments are initially recorded at cost, and subsequently measured at fair value. If fair value cannot be reliably measured, assets are measured at cost less impairment. Listed investments are measured at fair value with changes in fair value being recognised in income or expenditure. Stocks Stocks are measured at the lower of cost and estimated selling price. - 5 - Hawkshead Grammar School Foundation Notes to the Financial Statements (continued) Year ended 31 October 2017 3. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) Financial instruments A financial asset or a financial liability is recognised only when the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at the amount receivable or payable including any related transaction costs, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction,
