Audit & accounting basis
- Accounting basis
- FRS 102
- Reporting scope
- Standalone (parent only)
- Auditor
- Alliotts LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“After making appropriate enquiries, the Board of Trustees has a reasonable expectation that the Academy Trust has adequate resources to continue in operational existence as a healthy going concern for the foreseeable future. For this reason, the Board of Trustees continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.”
Significant events
- “For the year September 2024 to August 2025, Berkeley Academy has undertaken two fundraising events: a fireworks display and a Summer Fair. It also received commission from the school photographs.”
- “ADMAT was successful in securing the MDIF (MAT Development and Improvement Bid) to support targeted schools but was unable to secure any suitable schools in the designated areas for sponsorship by the deadline date. As a result, the allocated funds were never transferred to ADMAT.”
- “The initial growth strategy is therefore now under review.”
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
