Audit opinion

Going concern

Affirmed

“After making appropriate enquiries, the Board of Trustees has a reasonable expectation that the school has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, it continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. However, it has been decided to close the trading company, therefore, its separate financial statements are prepared on a basis other than going concern. Liquidation of this company has no impact on going concern of the school. We draw attention to note 34 of the financial statements which explains that the senior management has decided to close the trading company/subsidiary after the year end. Consequently, its separate financial statements have been prepared on a basis other than going concern as described in the note. The results of the trading company are immaterial to the group and therefore the trustees do not believe it to have a material impact on the going concern of the parent charity.”

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
