Significant events
- “The full year results for fiscal year 24/25 have returned a surplus, although less than the previous year and slightly below the planned budgetary figure.”
- “Commercial course activity remains strong, and the results reflect this, realising an above budget and prior year performance. The commercial course calendar continues to be well populated and is further bolstered by the completion in late August 2024 of the new commercial suite of classrooms and practical training area.”
- “Apprentices once again participated in outdoor challenge programmes with over 100 undertaking the experience which supports the behaviours element of their apprenticeship in activities that are different to the normal working environment.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers

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
