- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees' 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 charitable company'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
- “In July 2025, the School announced a historic change to the way we train our youngest students, building on our long-standing approach to nurturing young dancers in the most effective and supportive way.”
- “Following the conclusion of the Primary Steps programme in 2025, after the end of Department for Education funding, the School has continued to deliver workshops for children aged 7 to 11 in Blackpool, Dagenham and Mansfield as part of a legacy programme.”
