“After making appropriate enquiries, the Trust Board has a reasonable expectation that the Academy Trust has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, it continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.”

Significant events

• “Very pleased to be awarded the 'Centre of Excellence' mark for the work on inclusion.”
• “Prep has been fully evaluated, taking on board the views of a range of stakeholders - ready for implementation in September 2025.”
• “We have introduced good systems to be able to track and monitor AP. We have introduced Construction this year and we need to continue to embed this course.”

• “All staff have now received coaching training - it will take a number of years to fully implement this.”

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
