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 2024/25, the primary fundraising target for FoTPA was purchasing new playground equipment including a second play frame as well as installing professional sports markings in the atrium and hall. We reached this target and the students and teachers are enjoying the benefits of the improved outdoor space. 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 £23,188 (2024: £12,808). FoTPA ended the year with reserves of £13,243 (2024: £13,920). These funds will be used in 2025/26 for further playground refurbishment. 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.
