## _**Note 6 - Accounting policies**_ 

These Accounts have been prepared in a Receipts and Payments basis as allowed by the Charity Commission of England and Wales for small charities. No statutory format exists, however the Commission's guidance on preparing Receipts and Payments accounts has been followed. As advised by the Commission these accounts have been prepared in a consistent way from year to year. Cash floats have been excluded from both fundraising event receipts and payments as they do not represent true Income or Expenditure. There are no restricted funds. No Stipulation has been made by other donor as to how money is to be spent and no endowments have been made. 

## _**Note 7 - Trustee's Expenses**_ 

No remuneration was paid to any trustee. Expenses are paid to Trustees and other Friend's members for purchases relating to PTA events and other activities. No travel expenses have been paid as PTA members have chosen not to submit claims. In 2022/23 £2,377 was reimbursed to Trustees wholly relating to PTA events and other Activities.
