Material uncertainty over going concern
We draw attention to note 2 in the financial statements, which indicates that the charity has made a deficit in 2025 and is budgeting a deficit for the year ended 31 July 2026, which will have a negative impact on the schools cashflow. As stated in note 2, these events or conditions, along with other matters as set forth in note 2, indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the charity's ability to continue as a going concern.

Significant events
- “The financial year ending 31 July 2025 (and budgets for 31 July 2026) have been negatively impacted by a combination of external factors, specifically measures introduced by the government, including VAT on Independent School Fees, the loss of business rates relief, and increases in National Insurance contributions and the threshold reduction, together with a general rise in costs.”
- “The bank have confirmed that it is supportive of the current 'THS' Business Plan, which includes development of the Nursery project, based upon financial projections notes and assumptions presented for the next 12 months they have agreed to waive the 2025 and 2026 covenant testing and provide an extension of the overdraft facility over Christmas 2025/26 period should it be needed.”
- “In December 2019, a further legal challenge was made against the TPS relating to an identified equalities issue whereby male survivors of opposite-sex marriages and civil partnerships are treated less favourably than survivors in same-sex marriages and civil partnerships. The impact of these events was taken into account when the scheme valuation was implemented in April 2024, based on March 2020 data.”

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
