Significant events

• “The 2024/25 financial year was marked by significant external challenges that impacted workforce recruitment and apprenticeship engagement within PETAs client base. Market uncertainty, coupled with changes to the employer's National Insurance tax rate and the lowering of the NI threshold, led to a slowdown in the appetite for businesses to recruit new staff.”
• “Apprenticeship income declined by 7.4% compared to the previous year. However, commercial income demonstrated strong performance, increasing by 16%. This growth was driven mostly by a large-scale project with a customer that aligned with PETA's strategic objectives.”
• “PETA partnered with the University of Portsmouth to pursue a Knowledge Transfer Partnership (KTP). The KTP aims to develop a future skills forecasting tool and a systemised approach to immersive curriculum design.”
• “solar panels were installed at the Cosham site which has reduced electricity costs and consequently CO2 emissions.”

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
