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 individual charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least 12 months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”

Significant events

• “2025 has started strongly. However, significant wage cost pressures resulting from a big increase to Employer National Insurance charges will be challenging.”
• “As part of a longer-term strategy, we are actively seeking grant-funding to support an expansion in our facilities for both teaching space and accommodation.”
• “Costs overall increased by 13.5%. A comprehensive review of our operations during the year resulted in a restructuring of certain functions and highlighted the need to address various maintenance and related projects as a priority. These were all fulfilled.”

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
