Significant events
- “A Heating Decarbonisation Plan was produced in 2022. It identified potential annual savings if the plan is fully implemented as The measures identified cannot currently be implemented due to lack of funding.”
- “In common with many schools and multi-academy trusts, the Trust has found that funding has not kept pace with cost increases. Progress was made in 2024/25 with improving efficiency and, following further curriculum and timetable changes which have secured reduced staff costs, the Trust expects all of its schools to return to surplus in 2025/26.”
- “The first year of delivery [of initial teacher training programme] was a success and a second cohort of 120 started their training in September 2025. The Appropriate Body service was expanded in the year and Teach West London continues to successfully deliver the early careers framework and NPQs in partnership with University College London.”
- “During the year further improvements were made to IT systems and sports facilities, including a new AGP at Ada Lovelace C of E High School which was largely funded by the Football Foundation.”

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
