FINANCIAL REVIEW

• e Total expenditure for the year: £22,216

• e Net surplus/deficit: £11,864

• e Closing reserves: £26,633

It is the policy of the charity that unrestricted funds which have not been designated fora specific use should be maintained at a level equivalent to between three and six months’ expenditure. The trustees consider that reserves at this level will ensure that, in the event of a significant drop in funding, the charity will be able to continue its activities while consideration is given to ways in which additional funds may be raised. This level of reserves has been maintained throughout the year.

The trustees have assessed the major risks to which the charity is exposed and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate exposure to the major risks.

PLANS FOR THE FUTURE

Looking ahead to 2025~—26, the PTA plans to:

• e Continue its core fundraising program (Christmas and Summer Fairs, discos, uniform sales).

• Explore new fundraising opportunities

• e Support specific school projects, such as funding playground equipment improvements

• e Strengthen parent and community engagement by recruiting new volunteers and trustees.
