Going concern

Affirmed

“The Board of Trustees have made the appropriate enquires and have a reasonable expectation that the MAT has the ability to continue a going concern and has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, it continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.”

Significant events

• “The MAT grew by the addition of one school, Hawthorn Primary joined the MAT on the 1st April 2020. The MAT still is in a period of growth in order to meet its growth plan with Copley Junior School deciding to join our academy trust in 25/26.”
• “Copley Junior Governing Body has made a decision to join our Trust. This has been ratified and the application has been submitted to the DfE.”
• “CIF buildings funding secured for a significant improvement for a high priority safeguarding works at Hawthorn Academy.”

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
