Structure, Governance and Management

Busbridge Junior School PTA became a registered charity in 2005 and is constituted by Articles of Association adopted at that time and subsequently revised in 2017. New trustees are appointed or reappointed annually by the members of the charity. Membership of the charity is open to all parents, guardians or carers of any pupil currently attending the school and teaching and non-teaching staff currently employed by the school.

Objects and Activities

The objects of the charity set out in its governing document are as follows:

  1. To advance the education of the pupils of Busbridge Junior School.

  2. To develop effective relationships between staff, parents and others associated with the school.

  3. To engage in activities and provide facilities or equipment which support the school and advance the education of the pupils.

The charity’s activities focus on organising various fundraising extra-curricular events for the pupils, staff and parents, and providing assistance to the school on special events. In planning our activities for the year, we kept in mind the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit.

Financial Review

The PTA started the year with reserves of £24,073 raising £19,530 from fundraising events, receiving £1,384 in donations and incurring operating expenses of £447. Having pledged a total of £24,703 in donations during the year to fund various school activities, the PTA closed the year with reserves of £19,836 which will be used in the future to support the school in line with its objectives.

The PTA held several fundraising events during the year, most notably a Christmas Fayre and associated Secret Shopping event, Fireworks Night and a Summer BBQ. Other key fundraising activities involved summer ice-creams sales, school discos for children and a similar event for parents, sponsored bouncy castle jumping and bike rides. The PTA also raised money from local estate agents for advertising boards,

second hand uniform sales and various other initiatives detailed in the notes to these financial statements. The PTA is also grateful to school staff who raised funds through sponsored walking and running events.

Amounts pledged to the school include funding for hall redecoration work, new gym bars, new equipment, books, furniture, science equipment, and other amounts detailed in the notes to these financial statements.

The PTA relies entirely on the voluntary efforts of its committee, teachers and parents to organise and run events and activities. All such work is greatly appreciated, and most amounts raised are generated entirely due to the generosity of parents and teachers in giving time and resources.

Declaration

The trustees declare that they have approved the trustees’ report above, and the report is signed on behalf of the charity’s trustees by:
