REDBORNE UPPER SCHOOL AND COMMUNITY COLLEGE

• ⚠

  Material uncertainty over going concern

  It is the intention of the governors to merge the Academy Trust's assets, liabilities and undertakings into another academy trust in the academic year 2025/26. Any merger is subject to consultation and legal process but the governors consider that a merger will take place. On transfer, the Trust's assets, liabilities and activities will be transferred and the Trust will subsequently be wound up in an orderly manner. The financial statements are therefore prepared on a basis other than going concern. No adjustments have been made to the book values as a result of this.

Significant events

• “In 2025, the School made a conscious decision to spend unrestricted funds (from a sinking fund built up over 12 years) to refurbish the FA 3G football pitch and protect the future income and protect the quality of the facilities so the students and the local community can continue to benefit from them.”

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
