- Going concern
- Affirmed
“Having considered the College's reserves, the expected trajectory of its financial performance, and its cash flow forecasts, the Trustees consider that the College has adequate resources to continue in operation for at least 12 months after the approval date of these accounts. The Trustees are therefore satisfied that it is appropriate to prepare the accounts on a going concern basis.”
Significant events
- “The highlight of the 2024/25 academic year was the Ordination of two new rabbis.”
- “Building work began in June 2025 and finished in December 2025, with our Architects SquareFeet project managing the build.”
- “The Admissions Board approved two candidates for admission, one of which deferred entry for a year. The first-year cohort is comprised of 3 students who started fulltime in September 2025.”
