Going concern

Affirmed

“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the School's ability to continue a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”

Significant events

• “The vision for the next 5 years is centred around maintaining our position at the forefront of educational progress and delivering the best experiences for children to thrive within. A key project is building a state-of-the-art senior school that is Net Carbon Zero and ultra sustainable.”
• “The School awarded means tested bursaries amounting to £40,344 this year (2022-23: £33,900) to 8 pupils (2022-23: 4).”
• “Scholarships with monetary value were awarded for the first time, to 5 pupils in the Senior Prep and amounted to £11,034.”
• “Sibling discounts were £88,723 this year (2022-23: £72,760) and staff discounts were £186,944 (2022-23: £194,000).”
• “Overall £22,842 was raised for charities (Challengers, Wave Wrangler) during 2023-24, with £4,085 paid out by year end.”
• “The school has paid a first deposit for the acquisition of land adjacent to the current site. Subject to planning permission, a second deposit and final balance totalling £643,500 will fall due.”

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
