## **ST GEORGE'S SCHOOL** ## **PARENTS AND STAFF ASSOCIATION** **FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2025** ## **ST GEORGE’S SCHOOL** ## **ASSOCIATION OF PARENTS AND STAFF** ## MEMBERS’ ANNUAL REPORT The members have pleasure in presenting their report and financial statements for the year ended 31[st] July 2025 ## **Constitution and Objectives** The association is governed by a constitution dated 16[th] January 2013 The object of the association is to advance the education of pupils in St George’s School, Sun Lane, Harpenden, Hertfordshire (“The School”) in particular by: - Developing effective relationships between the staff, parents and others associated with the school - Engaging in activities which support the School and advance the education of the pupils - Providing and assisting in the provision of such facilities or items for education at the school (not provided from - statutory funds) as the committee shall from time to time determine. ## **Membership** Members of the association are: - The parents, guardians and carers of a pupil currently attending the School - The members of the teaching and non-teaching staff currently employed by the School ## **Activities and achievements** The members of the association continue to work hard organising several fund raising events each year. The funds raised this year are detailed on schedule 1, and have enabled the association to make donations to the School, as detailed on schedule 2. Claire Vos Treasurer _10th November 2025_ Sun Lane Harpenden Hertfordshire AL5 4TD **Page 1** ## **ST GEORGE’S SCHOOL** ## **ASSOCIATION OF PARENTS AND STAFF** ## **REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT EXAMINER TO THE ASSOCIATION** I report on the accounts of St George’s School Association of Parents and Staff for the year ended 31[st] July 2025 which are set out on pages 3 to 7. ## **Respective responsibilities of members and examiner** The members are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The members consider that an audit is not required for this year and that an independent examination is needed. It is my responsibility to examine the accounts prepared by the members and to state whether particular matters have come to my attention. ## **Basis of independent examiner’s report** This report is made solely to the members of the association, as a body, in accordance with the terms of my engagement. My work has been undertaken for no purpose other than to draw to the attention of the members of the association to those matters which I am required to include in an independent examiner’s report addressed to them. I have not been instructed to carry out an audit of the financial statements. For this reason, I have not verified the accuracy or completeness of the accounting records or information and explanations that have been given to me. My examination was carried out in accordance with the general directions given by the Charities Commission. An independent examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the association and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as members concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts. ## **Independent examiner’s statement** Formally, in connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements to keep accounting records or to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records have not been met; or to which in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
