            2         Basis of preparation


            2.1       Statement of compliance
                      The financial  statements  of Learn Africa Plc have been prepared in accordance  with
                       International Financial Reporting Standards  (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting
                       Standards Board (IASB), the provisions of the Companies and Allied Matters Act (CAMA)
                       2020, Laws of the Federation of Nigeria and Financial Reporting Council of Nigeria Act,
                       No. 6, 2011.

                      The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these financial statements
                       are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented,
                       unless otherwise stated.


                      The financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for investment
                       properties, which have been measured at fair value.

            2.2       Functional and presentation currency and the level of rounding
                      These financial  statements  are presented  in Naira, which is the Company’s functional
                       currency. All financial information presented in Naira has been rounded to nearest  thousand
                       ($’000), except where otherwise indicated.


            2.3       Significant accounting judgement, estimates and assumptions
                      The  preparation of  the  financial statements requires Management to  make judgements,
                       estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets
                       and liabilities,  and  the  accompanying  disclosures, and  the  disclosure  of contingent
                       liabilities. Uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes
                       that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of the asset or liability affected
                       in future periods.
