Affirmed

“After making appropriate enquiries, the Board of Trustees has a reasonable expectation that the Academy 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

• “In November 2023 the school was inspected by Ofsted. This was a graded inspection under section 5 of the Education Act 2005. The Trustees were delighted with the outcome, which was: Overall effectiveness - Good, The quality of education - Good, Behaviour and attitudes - Good, Personal development - Outstanding, Leadership and management - Good.”
• “During the year, several new approaches aimed at improving attendance were rolled out. Whole school attendance for 2024-25 was 88.3%.”
• “Many fluorescent tube lights have now been changed, meaning 50% of all lighting in the whole school is now LED, which ensures reduced electricity costs.”
• “On the school's roof, two air handling units that supply and extract fresh air in and around the whole school building, have been repaired and upgraded, ensuring they supply heat and cooling via air conditioning units and hot water pipes, meaning less use of traditional radiators.”
• “The remaining 50% of all the school's fire extinguishers have been changed for new. This is in-line with recommendations from an external fire & security review.”
• “All year 7s were provided with a Chromebook for the duration of their time at the school. This is in-line with the school's IT strategy.”

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
