Material uncertainty over going concern
On 1 September 2025 Great Baddow High School transferred its operations, assets and liabilities to a newly formed Multi-Academy Trust, Quantum Multi-Academy Trust. As a result of this transfer, these accounts are not prepared on the going concern basis. Trustees expect the school will continue to operate within the new trust and there are no material adjustments arising as a result of ceasing to apply the going concern basis of accounts preparation.

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
