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

- 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 charity'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
- “The introduction of the 20% VAT on school fees since January 2025, which is impacting families.”
- “The most recent standard inspection by Ofsted (in September 2025) rated all the school as Outstanding.”
- “From April 2025, charitable business rates relief for private schools in England was withdrawn.”
- “KTECT made a donation of £50,000 to support CFBL's campaign communication towards new families.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
