“After making appropriate enquiries, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the school has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. 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.”

The project responds directly to a growing international demand for high quality SEN provision.”
- “Moon Hall will be opening a new satellite school, 'Moon Hall Copthorne', for children aged 7 to 11, located within the 55-acre Copthorne Prep campus on the Surrey/Sussex border in September 2026.”
