- Villars Hayward LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The Board of Trustees consider there are no material uncertainties about the Charity's ability to continue as a going concern. The review of our financial position, reserves levels and future plans gives Trustees confidence the Charity remains a going concern for the foreseeable future. Financial projections have been subjected to detailed risk assessments, and it is considered that the Charity would remain going concern even in the event of its most significant risks being realised.”
Significant events
- “In the last quarter of 2024 and the first quarter of 2025 Round Square held five Forums for RS Coordinators and other faculty from RS schools.”
- “The combined addition of new Candidate and Global Member schools, along with changes in the exchange rate and local increases in school-fee income, resulted in an increase in subscription income of £103,627 during the year.”
- “17 Round Square Student Conferences were hosted by RS Schools during the reported year. The Round Square International Conference 2024 was hosted across five schools in Colombia.”
- “In December 2024 in Vietnam, 38 students and eight adults from 18 Round Square schools worked together to instal 110 solar powered lights and build an irrigation dam.”
- “In July 2025, 55 students and 7 adult leaders from 28 Round Square schools in 17 countries travelled, to Matlaneg, in South Africa, where they worked as an international team on construction of the Oledile Early Learning Center.”
- “During the 2024/5 year, two vacancies in the Round Square Management Team were temporarily filled but are once again vacant. In addition, Susanne McLean joined the team at the end of July in the position of Operations Manager, and in June, Mary Anne Evans took up the post of Schools' Support Director for Australasia and East Asia.”

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
