- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“After making appropriate enquiries, the Board of Trustees has a reasonable expectation that the Trust has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.”
Significant events
- “Principal financial challenges in the year to end of August 2025, broadly fell into two categories. Firstly, both the teachers pay rise and the support staff pay increase were not fully funded. Secondly, funding in respect to SEND pupils was inadequate and with demand increasing this remains an area of significant concern.”
- “This year, the Trust carried out significant upgrade work to BLPS & NHPS sites, investing in excess of £100,000 in improving and upgrading school facilities.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers

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
