Audit opinion

Going concern
Affirmed

“The directors have carefully considered the future financial position of the College. The directors have reviewed three trading scenarios covering an expected case, a worsening case and a worst case. Forecasts and cash flows for each scenario up to 31 July 2026 indicate the College has adequate cash and other reserves to withstand, as well as the ability to adapt to, the worst-case scenario, should it occur, without the requirement for external funding. At present, there is no expectation that the College will suffer a significant reduction in income for the current financial year ending 31 July 2025, and the forecasted budget for the financial year ending 31 July 2026 anticipates an operating profit and that the College will continue to meet its liabilities as they fall due.”

FY2023 → FY2024 · period ending 2024-07-31 vs 2023-07-31

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
