ORLEANS PRIMARY PARENT AND TEACHER ASSOCIATION
TRUSTEES’ REPORT for the year ended 31 July 2021
Orleans Primary Parent and Teacher Association (OPPTA) is the PTA for Orleans Primary School.
The objectives of OPPTA are to advance the education of the pupils of Orleans Primary School by providing and assisting in the provision of facilities for education at the school not normally provided by the Local Education Authority. All parents and guardians of children currently at the school and members of staff are members of OPPTA.
With the voluntary support of the school, parents and teachers, the Committee successfully ran a number of events throughout the year to raise funds and foster a sense of community within the student, parent, guardian and staff groups. As with the previous year, COVID-19 continued to affect the charity's ability to fundraise in the normal way, so the committee sought to find alternative sources of income and do things differently. The process allowed OPPTA to continue to raise funds and many of the activities will continue into subsequent years. New activities included the sale of Christmas Trees, a Light Up St Margarets event and sales of class Christmas productions. The annual Quiz Night took place virtually and was a great success.
The largest fundraisers in the year were the Bounceathon (in excess of £7,000) and the various Christmas activities (in excess of £6,000). Additional regular income was raised through weekly cake sales, uniform sales, commissions from Easyfundraising & Amazon and ad hoc donations. Due to the rescheduling of the St Margarets Fair from July to September 2021, the charity did not receive a donation from the proceeds of the fair. However, this is expected in the next financial year. The total amount raised was £29,002.
In the year ending 31 July 2021, net funds raised after cost of fundraising & equipment and administrative costs were £25,341 vs £23,330 in the previous year.
In the period August 2020 – July 2021, OPPTA provided £16,666 to provide equipment and to support activities at the school. The largest spends were to provide laptops (£6,675) and books (£4,552). In the same way that COVID-19 affected OPPTA's ability to fundraise, the pandemic also had an impact on the school's capacity to define additional Grant requirements and to spend funds that had already been granted in the year. At the end of the year, OPPTA and the School agreed that some Grants were no longer required and identified others that would not be spent in the financial year. It was agreed that those that would not be spent in the year would be removed from 2020-2021 and reallocated in the next school year. A commitment of £10,000 to support the re-deveopment of the Reception Garden was removed from the Grants for the year and reallocated to these projects in 2021-2022). In the previous year a total of £18,481 was donated.
To ensure that children and parents involved in fundraising see and experience the benefits of the money raised, OPPTA endeavours to avoid accumulating excessive funds and works with the school to identify projects that can be delivered in the academic year. This was not possible this year and the charity saw an increase in retained funds at the end of the year. In the previous year ending 31 July 2020 a surplus of ££20,061 was recorded and the funds available at the end of this financial year grew to £26,976. £2,000 is always retained as working capital by OPPTA, which made just under £25,000 available for grants in the 2021-2022 academic year, of which £10,000 was committed for the Reception Garden.
At the Financial Year End, OPPTA had a cash balance of £30,100, with £3,732 Trade Debtors and Accrued Income bringing the Net Current Assets to £3,832. There were outstanding payments and Grant payments due to the school of £6,856 to take into account to arrive at the surplus of £26,976.

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 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
-
examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act,
-
to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission under
-
section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act, and
-
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiner’s statement
My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair’ view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent examiner's statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention
-
which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in, any material respect, the requirements:
-
to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; and
-
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting
-
requirements of the Charities Act
have not been met; or
- to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
