Going concern

Affirmed

“After making appropriate enquiries, the Board of Trustees has a reasonable expectation that the Academy has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the Trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the Academy's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”

Significant events

• “The academy is considering the closure of its Post-16 provision at the end of the academic year 2025/26 due to low student numbers allowing it to focus teaching and funds on the academic provision for students aged 11-16.”
• “These were reviewed in the light of the visit by Ofsted in May 2025 when the school's rating moved from 'Requires Improvement' to 'Good'.”
• “Total student numbers have declined following a change in the structure to the school's post-16 provision during academic year 2024-25 and will be further impacted if closure of KS5 education at the end of Academic Year 2025-26 occurs.”

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
