Guidance from the school Head Teacher is sought regularly to make sure the aims of the PTA and school align.

● Projects and Impact :

The PTA continues to fund the ongoing playground redevelopment project and funded a large sun shade area with artificial grass surface. Annually the PTA also gives all the school children a book at

Christmas from Father Christmas. Second hand uniform sales are held regularly, bringing affordable uniform to parents and carers and bolstering the charity's sustainable aims.

We will start the year with a Nursery and Reception Disco and parent social, followed by two Halloween Disco’s for Key Stage 1 and 2.

● Continued Support for School Initiatives :

Independent Reviewer’s Report to the Trustees of Garfield Primary School Parent Teacher Association

Charity name: Garfield Primary School Parent Teacher Association Charity number: 1141438

Year ending: 31/10/24

I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of the charity for the year 01/11/23 to 31/10/24.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity’s trustees, you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (“the Act”).

I report in respect of my review of the charity’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination, I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.

Independent reviewer’s statement

I have completed my review. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination which gives me cause to believe that in any material respect:

accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair’ view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the review to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
