For this reason it continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.”
Significant events
- “The trust operates an academy for pupils aged 11 to 18 serving an area in North Nottinghamshire. The academy operates on two sites.”
- “The academy was inspected by OFSTED in 2024 and was judged to be 'Good' in all areas.”
- “KS4 data from the summer demonstrated an improvement in the percentage of students achieving grade 4 or above in English and Maths from last summer's results (54.5% up from 51.5%) and a very significant increase in students achieving a grade 5 or above in maths and English 35.5% (summer 2024 data was 25.7%).”
- “There has been a marked improvement on results in the previous year with a significant improvement in the Level 3 Value Added. Most students who applied to university were successful in securing placements.”

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
