- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“After making appropriate enquiries, the board of trustees has a reasonable expectation that the academy trust has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, the board of trustees continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.”
Significant events
- “The trustees have successfully applied to the DfE for approval as an Academy Sponsor. The DfE has approved the academy as a sponsor and it is likely that at some point in the future Lever Edge Primary Academy will become a multi-academy trust.”
- “The sharp rise in energy costs is putting a huge strain on the Academy's budget and has the potential to directly impact the education of children and young people.”
- “The Condition Improvement Fund (CIF) application and the appeal were rejected.”
- “The risk register is reviewed termly by trustees and the economic risk remains high due to the uncertainty in relation to staff costs and food price increases.”
- “The number of children with SEND has risen and this has impacted on staffing costs.”

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
