Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts

The accounts state that the charity reported a net loss of £108,470 for the year ended 31 August 2025, a reversal from the previous year's surplus, which was attributed to the introduction of VAT on school fees. Per the trustees' report, the school maintains a positive overall reserve position including tangible fixed assets, although it reports a deficit in free reserves of £54,652. The trustees believe the school is able to operate with this deficit provided forecast cash flows remain sufficient to meet anticipated requirements.
