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

- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' 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 group's and parent 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
- “The School completed the expansion of its campus in September 2024, a project that began in 2023.”
- “Point Blank Limited became an Approved (Fee Cap) provider in July 2020.”
- “Office for Students grant funding became applicable from July 2020 and so 2024 is the fourth full year of reporting the grant for 23/24.”
- “There still continues to be a risk to the number of international student numbers resulting from Brexit as it is now more difficult for international students to apply and receive visas.”
