Going concern

Affirmed

“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the governors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”

Significant events

• “During the year under review, the school was approached with an offer to merge into an existing, local charitable group of schools. After active consideration of other similar opportunities and of the option of remaining independent, the governors decided that pursuing a merger was in the best interest of the school, both in terms of securing its financial future and being able to offer enhanced provision for pupils and staff. After detailed legal and financial due diligence, with appropriate outside professional counsel, the governors approved the merger and the school joined the St. Dunstan's Educational Group on 28 February 2025.”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. Periods don't have to be exactly 12 months apart — a long or short period (typical around incorporation or year-end changes) will distort the comparison. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
