  Material uncertainty over going concern

  We draw attention to note 1.2 in the financial statements, which indicates that the Academy has net liabilities and needs to make further cost savings, as a result the Academy is vulnerable to any unexpected large costs that may occur and may require additional funding from the DfE. As stated in note 1.2, these events or conditions, along with the other matters as set forth in note 1.2, indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the Academy's ability to continue as a going concern.

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
