Going concern

Affirmed

“The Trustees have assessed the major risks to which the Company is exposed, in particular those related to the operations and finances of the Company. After appropriate consideration of risks as part of its normal risk management processes and mitigating actions both already taken and available to be taken, the Trustees consider it appropriate for the going concern basis to be adopted for these accounts. 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 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

• “In 2024-25, the School invested significantly in the learning environment and site safety through completion of the new Science Laboratory, upgraded washrooms, boilers, entry and tannoy systems, power supply and air conditioning.”
• “During 2024-25 the School was operating with an average of 370 pupils. Its capacity, known as the DfE Maximum, was increased in 2020-21 to 400 from 384 pupils reflecting the growing demand for places especially in the Early Years, but for operational reasons it is currently capped at 388 pupils.”
• “During 2024-2025, the PTA organised a wide range of popular events, including the Christmas Fair, Easter Crafts activities, the Halloween Disco, the Spring Masquerade Ball, the Summer Fair and the Upper School Easter Wipe Out, all of which were well attended by both current and alumni families.”
• “In addition to these events, the PTA sponsored the purchase of Bots for IT and contributed to the refurbishment of the new Science Laboratory, providing pupils with excellent facilities and enhanced opportunities for practical learning.”
• “Following the introduction of VAT on school fees from 1 January 2025, a VAT tax point was created for Autumn term invoices that had been issued prior to the year end. This change has led to a notable increase in both fee debtors and fees received in advance as at the reporting date.”

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
