For this reason, it continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.”
Significant events
- “The academy has worked with its external education adviser to implement a "Good to Great" programme.”
- “This programme has led to improved communication with parents and carers of children with additional needs, a focus of good behaviour throughout the school and the redevelopment of the playground with new facilities and equipment.”
- “The school was graded by Ofsted as 'good' in February 2023 and continues to work towards becoming an outstanding school.”
- “The school was inspected in February 2025 as part of the section 48 inspection which looked at the quality of teaching in RE and Catholic Life of the school and was judged to be a 'good' school with some 'outstanding' features.”

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
