How the Charity is constituted:
Campsbourne School HSA is constituted as a charitable trust.
Charitable trust selection methods:
All parents/carers of pupils at the School are eligible to be trustees and nominations are invited annually at the Annual General Meeting. New trustees are appointed by a resolution of the existing trustees, and the appointment of a new trustee is recorded in the minutes of a trustee meeting.
Additional governance information:
The Board of trustees and extended Committee meets at least once every half term and is in regular contact via our communication groups (Classlist, email and WhatsApp). Voting on funding requests happens at Committee meetings, but smaller amounts (less than £250) can be expediated via our communication channels (Classlist, email and WhatsApp) and then ratified at the following meeting and recorded in the minutes.
The Board works closely with the School Headteacher (the Chair meeting with the Headteacher at least once per term). We welcome suggestions regarding funding or events from parents/carers of the pupils at the school at the AGM and throughout the year via communication via class reps or the Committee or via our HSA email or Classlist.
Campsbourne School HSA is a member of Parentkind (formerly PTA-UK), the leading membership organisation for parent/teacher associations https://www.parentkind.org.uk. As members, we benefit from appropriate insurance, support from their helpline and access to their website which has a host of support and guidance material for members of the association to use, including a model constitution, which has been adopted (as above).
Objectives and activities:
The object of the association (the objects) is to advance the education of pupils in the School by:
2.1 Developing effective relationships between the staff, parents and others associated with the School
2.2 Engaging in activities or providing facilities or equipment which support the School and advance the education of the pupils.
This objective is achieved primarily through staging several fundraising events throughout the school year, the net proceeds of which are used to fund activities, to purchase equipment and to fund developments at the school which will be for the pupils’ benefit.

Report of the Independent Examiner 2023-2024 Accounts Balance Sheet
REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT EXAMINER
Basis of Independent Examiner’s Report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the 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 explanation 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 material matters have come to my attention which gives me cause to believe that in any material respect:
-
The accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; or
-
The accounts did not accord with the accounting records; or - The accounts did not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair’ view which is not a matter considered as part of the independent examination.
I have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this Report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
