Audit opinion

Going concern

Affirmed

“The College makes use of a bank loan secured by a legal charge over the leasehold property. As a result the deficit in the accounts for the year ended 31 August 2024, the bank loan covenant has been breached. The full amount of the bank loan of £1,199,435 has been recognised as due within one year. The College has received assurance that the bank has no concerns over the School's continued viability and has indicated that the breach will be waived. Current forecasts indicate the College expects to be able to operate within these facilities for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, the Governors believe it is appropriate to prepare the annual financial statements on the going concern basis of accounting.”

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
