Ratios
Computed from the line items above — sparklines read oldest → newest
| Ratio | Trend | 2024-03-31 | 2025-03-31 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Net margin | -7.2% | -6.4% | |
| Gearing (liabilities / total assets) | 3.0% | 1.7% | |
| Current ratio | -1.26x | -2.02x |
Margins divide P&L lines by turnover. Gearing is liabilities over total assets. Current ratio is current assets over creditors falling due within one year. Interest cover is operating profit over absolute finance costs. Sector-distribution context coming next.
Audit & accounting basis

- Crowe U.K. LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The Academy's academic success, the demand for places and financial plans provide reasonable assurance that the Academy has and will continue to have adequate resources to be a sustainable going concern in 2025/26 and for the foreseeable future. The Trustee's have reviewed the Trust's finances and due to the budget plan for 2025/6, the reserves held and the continued availability of government funding do not consider there to be any going concern issues. For this reason, the Academy continues to adopt the Going Concern principle in preparing its financial statements.”
Significant events
- “In May 2024 the Academy was identified as a Priority 1 school under the DfE's School Rebuilding Programme as part of the RAAC removal from the school estate. DfE have completed a feasibility review of the school site and are currently in the process of designing the new school buildings. As the vast majority of the school estate will be rebuilt we have been told to avoid any unnecessary expenditure on the school site.”
- “IT and Data Security remains a principal risk for the Academy due to the potential impact that cyber attacks, data breaches and system failures could have on safeguarding, operational continuity and statutory compliance, particularly under GDPR.”
- “The Academy was inspected by Ofsted in April 2025; Ofsted judged that the Academy has taken effective action to maintain the standards identified at the previous inspection (in 2020).”

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
