Material uncertainty over going concern
The school intends to merge from 1 September 2025 with the net assets being transferred to Hoe Bridge School. The governors therefore do not consider it to be appropriate to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements, instead preparing the accounts on a break-up basis. No adjustments have been made to the financial statements as a result of this.

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. Periods don't have to be exactly 12 months apart — a long or short period (typical around incorporation or year-end changes) will distort the comparison. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
