Audit & accounting basis
- Accounting basis
- FRS 102
- Reporting scope
- Standalone (parent only)
- Auditor
- Cooper Parry Group Limited
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“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 Trust'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
- “As from 1 September 2025 the Academy Trust has opted into the Department of Education's Risk Protection Arrangement ('RPA'), an alternative to insurance where UK.government funds cover losses that arise.”
- “The introduction of new solar panels and heat exchangers as part of the expansion project on the new building is a positive start to this work.”
- “The Academy Trust is also committed to contributing towards combating the threat of global warming by using energy efficient measures to reduce CO2 emissions throughout its buildings, facilities and operations.”
- “Recruitment of suitably qualified and experienced staff has been a particular challenge this year with vacancies unfilled for prolonged periods and agency staff employed as interim measures.”
- “The school failed to get approval for its 24/25 bids (even after an appeal). The urgent safeguarding work at Upper School and Fire Safety & Compliance on both sites still require funding.”
- “We also failed with our ESFA grant request for Urgent Capital Support (roof leaks).”

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
