- Going concern
- Affirmed
“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 multi academy trust operates 2 primary schools serving catchment areas in the Aston Ward and the North Edgbaston Ward which are: Yew Tree Community School and City Road Primary School.”
- “They have a combined pupil capacity of 840+ 156 p/t nursery places and had a roll of 812 in the school + 85 nursery places filled in the census on 2nd October 2025.”
- “During the year ended 31 August 2025 total resources expended were £6,675,234 and the surplus of income over expenditure was £734,045 stated after depreciation of £234,579.”
- “Inspire Education Community Trust gained sponsor status and became the sponsor for City Road Primary School which joined the trust on 1/9/2018.”

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
