Objectives and Activities
The purpose of the Friends of Twickenham Primary Academy (FoTPA) as set out in its constitution is to advance the education of pupils in Twickenham Primary Academy (TPA), in particular by:
-
Developing effective relationships between the staff, parents and others associated within the school; and
-
Engaging in activities or providing facilities or equipment which support the school and advance the education of the pupils.
The trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit.
Achievements and Performance
During the year 2022/23, the primary fundraising target for FoTPA was a suite of iPads, chosen specifically by the School as a learning aid that could benefit all years in supporting and broadening their education. We reached this target and the students and teachers are enjoying the benefits of these teaching aids. Additional investment took place into events designed with both the enjoyment of the students as well as fundraising opportunities in mind.
Financial Review
FoTPA had a highly successful year with total grants to Twickenham Primary Academy and equipment purchased directly totalling £23,281 (2022: £6,389). FoTPA ended the year with reserves of £7,470 (2022: £9,020). These funds have accumulated since the charity was established and are expected to reduce during 2023/24 as further grants are paid to TPA. The reserves are also needed to make payments in advance to fund fundraising events.
There is no uncertainty about FoTPA’s ability to continue as a going concern.
