The Learnin8 CuThe continues to rent out rooms and has still got regular ¢li¢nty however beUSe of growth in its ESFA Post 16 lltL due to the over delivery in 202312024. the fo¢us has moved from Room Rentals towards tb¢ Provision of Ixarning OprtUnItieS and individual 8p0¢ whi¢h has grown by 133% from £72243.40 to £168,196.36. As you can see from the Pmfit and Loss sheet although th¢ total turnover in th¢ year ending March 2025 was sligbtly higher than that of March 24. the operating profit was sligbtly lower than 2024.
