Audit opinion

Going concern

Affirmed

“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the Directors' 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

• “Christ Church CE Primary School (joined 1 January 2025)”
• “Five further primary schools located across Walsall, and Telford and Wrekin Local Authorities have been approved to join us during the 2025-2026 academic year. All schools are currently graded by Ofsted as good. We look forward to them joining our family, alongside St. Paul's CE Primary School, next academic year.”
• “St Paul's CE Primary School converted to academy status and joined the Trust on 1 September 2025. Both Abbey Primary School and Old Church CE Primary School converted to academy status and joined the Trust on 1 December 2025.”

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
