Overall this year the fund was used to support several families unable to make the voluntary donation requested for the cost of trips. This was made up of 55 occasions where families were unable, or chose not to contribute; total cost to school fund £617.81.
On 108 occasions, pupils eligible for support from pupil premium had their contribution paid direct from the budget as part of the pupil premium funding totalling £1831.07.
Money raised from sponsored events is also paid into this account and transferred to the relevant area of the budget once year groups have decided what they would like to spend the funds on.
Funds raised by the PTFA to enhance provision for the pupils are paid into school fund as a holding area until the items are ordered and invoiced through the main school budget. The funds are then transferred across to the relevant area of the budget to cover the costs of the invoice. This enables us to protect the funds from being swallowed up in the general day to day budget and also allows us to benefit from the non-payment of VAT on items ordered through the budget, (standard practice for maintained schools) thus making the money go further.
