Audit & accounting basis
- Accounting basis
- FRS 102
- Auditor
- Kreston Reeves Audit LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The Trustees confirm that there are no material uncertainties about the Academy Trust's ability to continue as a going concern, thus they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.”
Significant events
- “2024/2025 has been a hugely successful year for the Trust. We began the year with four schools judged as Requires Improvement and, following full Ofsted inspections in all four schools, the Trust ended the year with all ten schools judged to be Good or better.”
- “This year we created a new post: Executive Administration and Marketing Officer, a pivotal role in driving our social media strategy and Trust-wide communication plan. This appointment has considerably increased visibility and engagement across our schools, showcasing the unique strengths of our educational community.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers

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
