Objectives and Strategiesfor the Period

As well as seeking to sustain or improve the School's academic performance, NESA exists to strengthen the school community by raising funds and supporting initiatives that enhance both learning and wellbeing. Everything we achieve is thanks to the dedicated efforts of the school community, including staff, parents, carers and volunteers who give their time, energy, and resources so generously.

We're all members of NESA, and as long as we continue to support each other, our community will continue to thrive and grow.

The Association continues to implement a strategic development plan to improve the School Premises and provide educational resources. Further details are covered below under Future Plans.

Future Plans and Developments

The school will continue to benefit from the fundraising done by the parent/carer body. We will raise funds via events and sales, as well as a dedicated campaign encouraging one ~~-o~~ ff or monthly donations into the NESA account, via NEST (New End School Trust). The goal is to raise £100,000 annually to fund a specialist music teacher; Unlocking Potential mental health support; arts and curriculum enrichment (including the Shakespeare in Schools project); art materials; trip reimbursements for pupils in financial need; improvements to sports and games equipment and online learning subscriptions. Spending priorities for this fund continue to be identified by the school and revised annually.

In the past, the funds raised each year have been matched by equivalent spending. The trustees have discussed in detail what the funding would look like if we lost the main donors, detailed below. They remain committed to ensuring that funding is fairly distributed across all year groups, so that children benefit either within the same year or over their time at the school.

The school continues to benefit from the generous support of one family funding a major investment in ICT teaching, and another family who have generously donated large amounts each year. The Trustees express deep gratitude for this continued support and remain engaged in conversations around the sustainability and long ~~-~~ term impact of this funding.

These large donations from two New End families have been the key component in allowing NESA to fund a wide array of activities, but they are not obliged to fund again. Our projected spend is 115k for the next school financial year, so we need to be clear on our fundraising objectives in order to sustain our outgoings in future years if our main donors do not continue their incredibly generous support.

We will look to push NEST, as well as continuing to claim GiftAid. With the continued support of parents, carers, and friends, we are confident that NESA will remain a cornerstone of the school community.

No external grant applications were made during the 2024/25 year, though the Trustees plan to explore new funding opportunities in the coming year.

Engagement with the school community continues to evolve. Trustees and class reps have worked hard to support families and foster a strong community. In ~~-~~ person events are a highlight, culminating in a highly successful annual Summer Fair. We will continue to explore ways to bring the community together for events such as our annual International Evening.

The Trustees are grateful for the ongoing support of parents/carers and will continue encouraging regular, voluntary, anonymous contributions to meet the school’s immediate needs and long ~~-~~ term goals.

Activities during the Year 15* August 2024 — 31% July 2025

The Trustees maintained strong collaboration with the School through regular meetings with staff and the management team to identify key funding priorities.

During the year, NESA raised £191,221 (gross) through donations and fundraising activities, including:

During the year the Association provided £142 162 funding to support the following activities:

Grant-making procedure and policy

Funds from NEST are earmarked annually based on the school’s identified spending priorities. For other funding requests, applicants must submit a formal proposal detailing the activity, beneficiaries, cost, timescale, sourcing, and alternative funding availability. The school management team appends comments to the application. Trustees review all applications for alignment with NESA’s objectives. Payments to the school are made only upon receipt of valid invoices (see NESA policy handbook).

Financial Review

For the financial year 2024/25, income totalled £191,221, including £631 from Gift Aid and £23,926 raised through events. Outgoings for the same period amounted to £149,747. The treasurer submitted an application to claim outstanding gift aid on eligible donations, but this application was not processed by financial year end and this income will be captured in the 2025/26 report and statements.

As at 31 July 2025, the Association’s assets stood at £152,790, held primarily in the Association’s bank account.

Investment Policy

The Trustees continue to monitor the balance in the bank account ~~-~~ in 2024/25 they agreed to open a high interest savings account, and will move a portion of funds into it to benefit from the interest returned.

Reserves

Unrestricted Funds represent the free reserves of the Association. Restricted Funds are temporarily held for specific purposes. In the past there have been no fixed expenditure commitments and the Trustees have not maintained a target reserves level. With ongoing support provided to the school and their need to commit funding in advance to secure staff salaries for sustainability of ongoing programmes, the Trustees are discussing their reserves policy and plan to revise this for 2025/26.

Risk Management

The Trustees consider the risks faced by the Association to be minimal and that no further mitigation steps are necessary at this time.

Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner:

As the charity's trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts; you consider that the audit requirement of section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act) does not apply. It is my responsibility to state, on the basis of the procedures specified in the general directions given by the Charity Commissions under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act, whether particular matters have come to my attention.

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 these records. It also includes the consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence required in an audit, and consequently | do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts.
