Coppice Primary School Parent Teacher Association (the Association)
Report of the Trustees of the charity for the year ending 31 August 2022
The Trustees are pleased to present their annual report together with the financial statements of the
Association for the year ending 31 August 2022. The financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Constitution of the Association, and the regulations pertaining to the Association for the time being in force.
Chair’s Report
Financial arrangements
The Association’s Committee has continued to update and consolidate the financial arrangements of the Association. The Association continues to benefit from the use of an electronic accounting system which has streamlined the expenses process and has increased transparency and with that ensures compliance.
Income
The Committee works hard to ensure that the income it raises remains consistent with the amounts raised previously and we are proud that our financial position remains strong. The number of events organised this year remains consistent with the most profitable fundraising events being the Christmas Market and Summer Fayre. This strong financial position enables the Association to achieve its key aim of providing significant funds to Coppice Primary School. The financial position is published to its members annually and discussed at each PTA meeting. One meeting is held every half term. These meetings are well supported by our Committee members and other members of the Association.
The PTA were fortunate enough to win a grant of £5000 from Severn Trent Water, this grant was to be used to enhance the Forest School area see below.
Expenditure
The PTA funded some fantastic additions to the Forest School area with the above grant, this included a bug hotel, barefoot trail, bird and squirrel feeders with food, sensory beds including flowers, gardening equipment for the children, hedgehog habitats and a shed to store these resources.
In addition to the Forest School funding the PTA were pleased to fund the purchase of an outdoor classroom, this has also enhanced the pupils overall outdoor learning experience.
Amongst many other items funded were some Outdoor Maths resources and Musical Instruments which have all proved to be very popular with the children.
Challenges and opportunities
Challenges facing the Association in the coming year include the annual turnover of membership, in particular active committee members leaving. Increased financial pressure on school budgets may also result in more requests from the school to the PTA for volunteer and financial support.
Opportunities - A member of the Association continues to use social media platforms to communicate with all the parent and teacher members of the Association. This continues to increase participation at events and also the number of members prepared to help and support our events.
