CAVERSHAM PRIMARY SCHOOL ASSOCIATION ANNUAL REPORT 2024-25

Caversham Primary School Association: Trustees’ Annual Report for the year to 31/08/2025

Objectives and Activities

The objective of the Caversham Primary School Association (CPSA) as laid out in its constitution is to raise funds to provide additional facilities and opportunities for the children at Caversham Primary School. It achieves this by raising funds through various fundraising activities and using those funds to make grants to Caversham Primary School to enable it to carry out activities and develop its facilities in ways it would not otherwise be able to do. The trustees meet with the school representatives on a regular basis to review requests for funds and agree target activities for funding.

The charity raises funds by holding a variety of fundraising events, including a Christmas Fair, Summer BBQ, Fun Run, Quiz Nights, cake sales, clothes and uniform sales etc.

The CPSA is entirely dependent upon volunteers for its operations and management. We are enormously grateful to the many parents and carers of children in the school and the staff and others who give their time to help run events.

The trustees have due regard to the Charity Commission guidance on public benefit in planning their charitable activities. The charity provides public benefit by providing direct support to Caversham Primary School in delivering educational opportunities to the pupils that attend the school.

Achievements and Performance

This year the CPSA’s main spend was £9,734 on new teaching equipment for Caversham Primary School. Other key projects funded this year were the ongoing lease on the school minibus at a cost of £5,220 and £2,646 on experiential learning days. We also provided smaller amounts of funding for class parties, dictionaries for the Year 6 leavers and other smaller items to benefit the pupils.

Financial Review

2024/25 was once again a very successful year for the CPSA event organisers with all three key events (Summer BBQ, Christmas Fayre and Fun Run) being a great success. As done every year, the school leadership team was encouraged to utilise the significant reserves built up during the previous year — with over £18k of Charitable Expenditure in 2024/25, resulting in many beneficial experiences and new items for the pupils. However, with a longer term plan to replace playground equipment in 2025/26 (estimated to be in the region of £30k), it has been decided to hold a proportion of these reserves to cover this much needed replacement in the coming year.

Our income for 2024-25 was £29,203, a slight decrease on the previous year’s £32,066 which can be | attributed to a reduction in donations (matched funding, etc) and no wine tasting event slightly | offset by increased fundraising income from the Summer BBQ event. Overall, fundraising activities produced a surplus of £22,521 compared to £22,784 in the previous year. Charitable expenditure decreased compared to prior year (as per above, funds are being saved for significant expenditure required in 2025/26 for which new school playground equipment has been identified); however, we were delighted to spend £18,568 on improvements for Caversham Primary School in the year. Our reserves therefore have increased from £39,841 to £43,632 at the end of the financial year.

Reserves Policy

The charity holds reserves to ensure that it can continue to finance future fundraising events and to cover the risk of a loss-making event and to cover commitments made to the school. The target level of reserves is currently £10,000 as the three main events require a large initial outlay. The Trustees remain in discussion with the senior school staff around ways in which the current excess level of reserves can be spent to support the work of the school.

Risks

The trustees have identified the following as the key risks facing the charity:

Structure, Governance and Management

|

The Caversham Primary School Association is an unincorporated association using the PTA Model Constitution 2016. The charity has a small board of trustees, which oversees the work of the charity. Events are planned and coordinated by subcommittees formed of some trustees and volunteers. The trustees are elected by members of the CPSA at the annual AGM, or co-opted by the other trustees between AGMs. New trustees are provided with copies of the accounts of the charity and the constitution and are briefed on the work of the charity by the other trustees.

|

|

CPSA has a close working relationship with Caversham Primary School and their leadership team. We collaborate both on fundraising events (many of which use the school premises) and agreeing the projects to be funded by the CPSA.

CAVERSHAM PRIMARY SCHOOL ASSOCIATION ANNUAL REPORT 2024-25

Caversham Primary School Association: Trustees’ Annual Report for the year to 31/08/2025

Objectives and Activities

The objective of the Caversham Primary School Association (CPSA) as laid out in its constitution is to raise funds to provide additional facilities and opportunities for the children at Caversham Primary School. It achieves this by raising funds through various fundraising activities and using those funds to make grants to Caversham Primary School to enable it to carry out activities and develop its facilities in ways it would not otherwise be able to do. The trustees meet with the school representatives on a regular basis to review requests for funds and agree target activities for funding.

The charity raises funds by holding a variety of fundraising events, including a Christmas Fair, Summer BBQ, Fun Run, Quiz Nights, cake sales, clothes and uniform sales etc.

The CPSA is entirely dependent upon volunteers for its operations and management. We are enormously grateful to the many parents and carers of children in the school and the staff and others who give their time to help run events.

The trustees have due regard to the Charity Commission guidance on public benefit in planning their charitable activities. The charity provides public benefit by providing direct support to Caversham Primary School in delivering educational opportunities to the pupils that attend the school.

Achievements and Performance

This year the CPSA’s main spend was £9,734 on new teaching equipment for Caversham Primary School. Other key projects funded this year were the ongoing lease on the school minibus at a cost of £5,220 and £2,646 on experiential learning days. We also provided smaller amounts of funding for class parties, dictionaries for the Year 6 leavers and other smaller items to benefit the pupils.

Financial Review

2024/25 was once again a very successful year for the CPSA event organisers with all three key events (Summer BBQ, Christmas Fayre and Fun Run) being a great success. As done every year, the school leadership team was encouraged to utilise the significant reserves built up during the previous year — with over £18k of Charitable Expenditure in 2024/25, resulting in many beneficial experiences and new items for the pupils. However, with a longer term plan to replace playground equipment in 2025/26 (estimated to be in the region of £30k), it has been decided to hold a proportion of these reserves to cover this much needed replacement in the coming year.

Our income for 2024-25 was £29,203, a slight decrease on the previous year’s £32,066 which can be | attributed to a reduction in donations (matched funding, etc) and no wine tasting event slightly | offset by increased fundraising income from the Summer BBQ event. Overall, fundraising activities produced a surplus of £22,521 compared to £22,784 in the previous year. Charitable expenditure decreased compared to prior year (as per above, funds are being saved for significant expenditure required in 2025/26 for which new school playground equipment has been identified); however, we were delighted to spend £18,568 on improvements for Caversham Primary School in the year. Our reserves therefore have increased from £39,841 to £43,632 at the end of the financial year.

Reserves Policy

The charity holds reserves to ensure that it can continue to finance future fundraising events and to cover the risk of a loss-making event and to cover commitments made to the school. The target level of reserves is currently £10,000 as the three main events require a large initial outlay. The Trustees remain in discussion with the senior school staff around ways in which the current excess level of reserves can be spent to support the work of the school.

Risks

The trustees have identified the following as the key risks facing the charity:

Structure, Governance and Management

|

The Caversham Primary School Association is an unincorporated association using the PTA Model Constitution 2016. The charity has a small board of trustees, which oversees the work of the charity. Events are planned and coordinated by subcommittees formed of some trustees and volunteers. The trustees are elected by members of the CPSA at the annual AGM, or co-opted by the other trustees between AGMs. New trustees are provided with copies of the accounts of the charity and the constitution and are briefed on the work of the charity by the other trustees.

|

|

CPSA has a close working relationship with Caversham Primary School and their leadership team. We collaborate both on fundraising events (many of which use the school premises) and agreeing the projects to be funded by the CPSA.
