HEADLINES
l A full programme of events for the 24/25 school year showing reduced revenues
All of the key events and activities are showing reduced revenues for the financial year Fireworks down 5%, Summer Fair 37% and Christmas Fair 23% reductions Uniform shop showing a 15% reduction in revenues for the same period.
School discos buck the trend by showing £12k increase over the prior year, in the main part due to additional activities (Quiz / Football) programmed.
l Total income of just over £47k during the year
A drop of nearly £7½ k on the previous year (14% down) , £5k of which was from the core fundraising events
Approximately £1500 of income (and associated costs) lost due to the PTA no longer organising the Leavers Hoodies.
l Other income included £435 from Asda Cash Pot
No longer receiving income from Amazon, EasyFundraising or the Co-op Community Fund
The PTA continues to look to engage with suitable partners who can provide additional funding
l Related fundraising costs of just under £32½ k for the same period
A decrease of around £20k (39% reduction) year-on-year, which given the revenue reductions shows that cost reductions were made in line with activities
Increases in general costs continue to make a significant dent in the general profitability of the PTA's events calendar
Uniform Shop costs have continued to increase significantly and the committee have begun to reassess pricing and pass on the costs to parents.
The trustees continue to undertake reviews of the uniform shop pricing policy, cost control and are focused on ensuring affordability for all parents.
l Operating Costs (Website, Card Handling, Audit etc) of nearly £1,700
A slight increase (~5%) on the previous year
Card Handling Charge Rates reduced in line with reduced revenues , but cost per transaction remains stable and no increases were passed on from the
payment service providers.
The PTA uses Stripe as it's payment gateway on the website and uses SumUp devices at it's events
£28 k of Cash receipts handled through Stripe & SumUp during the year (a reduction of £5k on prior year)
l Resulting in net c.£25 k surplus for the year before Disbursments
A increase on the previous year of c.£17½ k
l Disbursements totalling over £10k were made in the year.
This funding was predominantly for the Pentagon Play Equipment
The committee continues to work with the school to identify funding opportunities whilst ensuring that they maintain sufficient current assets to support the Uniform store stock build in the summer.
l nearly £58k of net funds on the balance sheet

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE ST HUGH'S PARENT TEACHER ASSOCIATION – CHARITY NUMBER - 1045500
I report on the accounts of the Trust for the year ended 31st August 2025, which are set out in pages numbered 1 to 3.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 43(2) of the Charities Act 2011 and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
-
Examine the accounts (under section 43 of the Act);
-
To follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity
-
Commissioners (under section 43(7) of the Act); and to state whether matters have come to my attention
Basis of independent examiner's report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners. That examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts with those records. It also includes considering any unusual items or disclosures in the financial statements and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts.
Independent examiner's statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
- (1) Which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements
-
(a) to keep accounting records in accordance with s41 of the Act: and
-
(b) to prepare financial statements which accord with the accounting records and comply with the requirements of the Act and the Regulations have not been met: or
-
(2) To which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached
-
John Wood - Chartered Accountant.
