- Unqualified (clean)
- 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 Group and the Parent Charitable Company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”

Significant events
- “The annual IATEFL International Conference was held in Brighton in April 2024. This was the third face-to-face conference since the pandemic, and showed continued growth and recovery in the scale of the event.”
- “IATEFL and its 16 Special Interest Groups ran 95 online events during the year.”
- “The introduction of free monthly drop-in support sessions for all student and early career members of the association.”
- “The introduction of a LinkedIn newsletter, published monthly, and free for anyone to subscribe to, outlining all the latest IATEFL news and events. Since its launch in Autumn 2023 the number of people who have subscribed to it has grown to over 12,000.”
- “The Charity welcomed a new Patron in January 2024 following a short gap after the previous incumbent, David Crystal, had stood down after many years of service in April 2023.”

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
