- Audit opinion
- 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's or 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
- “Throughout 2024, we have been celebrating our 25th Anniversary, from our anniversary dinner at the annual conference to an advent calendar of IDPE archives in December, we have shared how IDPE has supported schools over the past 25 years to achieve cultures of giving.”
- “2024 has been a year of transition for IDPE in terms of the team, with changes in team personnel and the introduction of new roles to support delivery of the 2025-27 Strategic Plan.”
- “In 2023 the membership approved a change to the constitution which removed the need to hold an AGM.”
- “A special resolution was passed by members in 2023, changing the constitution to allow the term of office for trustees to be extended to nine years, under exceptional circumstances and if deemed in the best interests of the 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
