- Going concern
- Affirmed
“After making appropriate enquiries, the Board of Trustees has a reasonable expectation that the academy trust has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, The Board of Trustees continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the Financial Statements. Further details regarding the adoption of the going concern basis can be found in the Statement of Accounting Policies.”
Significant events
- “The Academy trust is carrying a net deficit because the government pay and pension grants did not fully cover costs and the school had an unforeseen and extremely challenging set of unique circumstances during the 2023/2024 financial year. In addition to the above, the school suffered a major cyber-attack at the start of the academic year, September 2023, which caused all systems to fail.”

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
