Leeds Mathematics School
Both the trust and the school itself ran modest surpluses in 2024/25 — a rarer, cleaner story than its sister MAT-member school in Cambridge.
These headline figures are for the whole trust the school belongs to, not the school alone — see below.
Who files the accounts
Leeds Maths School is one academy inside The GORSE Academies Trust, a large Leeds-based multi-academy trust that files one consolidated set of accounts for all 15 of its schools — the maths school has no accounts of its own.

School-level figures
The Department for Education's Financial Benchmarking and Insights Tool publishes school-level figures even where the trust's accounts consolidate:
| Year | School-level figures (FBIT) |
|---|---|
| 2024/25 | Total income £1,819,788; total expenditure £1,767,512 (staff costs ≈£1,305,817); in-year balance +£54,907; revenue reserve £84,487; 168 pupils on roll (January 2025 census — 99 in Year 12, 69 in Year 13, matching Ofsted's February 2025 report). Teaching & teaching-support staff cost £6,880 per pupil. |
| 2023/24 | Total income £1,145,078; total expenditure £1,158,980; in-year balance −£14,033; revenue reserve £25,174; total staff costs ≈£787,717; 69 pupils on roll — the school's opening year. |
Figures include a per-pupil share of The GORSE Academies Trust's MAT central costs, per FBIT's own methodology. Pulled from FBIT's data API (income/expenditure/balance/census), not the static summary page. School-level FBIT data begins at 2023/24, with no earlier rows — consistent with 2023 being the school's opening year.

Notable items in the accounts

What we could not verify: Trust-level total funds carried forward (net assets) wasn't extracted for either year — The GORSE Academies Trust's statutory accounts for both years ended 31 August 2024 and 2025 are scanned image PDFs with no text layer. Only the narrower 'revenue reserve' figure (2024/25) is shown.; FBIT's reported 2023/24 school-level in-year balance (−£14,033) doesn't exactly equal income minus expenditure as shown (−£13,902) — a small gap in DfE's own published figures, likely a capital/other adjustment not broken out at this level, reported as published rather than reconciled.; Auditor name not identified (same scanned-PDF limitation).; No specific narrative mention of Leeds Maths School was found in the trust's annual report this pass..
