Going concern

Affirmed

“After making appropriate enquiries, the Board of Trustees has a reasonable expectation that the Multi-Academy Trust has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. A full report on projected Trust balances as well as commentary on all income and expenditure projections for the next 3-5 years is provided annually ahead of the Approval of the Budget.”

Significant events

• “Year 1 phonics outcomes on the screening check in all Trust primary schools exceeded national averages in 2025.”
• “Sirius Academy North was inspected under section 5, in November 2024. Bricknell Primary was inspected in March 2025.”
• “In June 2025, Yorkshire and Humber Teacher Training successfully achieved reaccreditation following a rigorous process with the Department for Education (DfE).”
• “Successful applications to develop two-year old provision at five of our seven primary schools have led to rapid action to ensure nursery places will be available in September 2025.”

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
