St Peter’s Parent Teachers Association Treasurers Report 2021
The Trustees present their report for the year ending 31 July 2021 to be read in conjunction with the attached financial statements.
Structure and Governance
The objects of the Charity were formed in a Trust Deed created on 15 July 1979. The Trustees are elected each year at the Annual General Meeting.
Main Activity and Public Benefit
St Peter’s PTA aims to advance the education of the pupils at the school by providing and assisting in the provision of facilities for education at the school (not normally provided by the local education authority). We run a series of events throughout the year which engage the school population and the local community.
Review of the Year
In the year ended 31 July 2021 we had a net profit of £17,609. We have made a conscious effort to use our funds to support the school in providing some of the resources needed to deliver the curriculum along with funding to activities that benefit the children’s social interactions following the challenges post lockdown.

The accounts have been audited again this year and signed off by Duncan Akers. Thank you Duncan! I would also like to thank Lorraine Ralph for all her support in my year as treasurer. It has been invaluable.
With the ongoing challenges around Covid restrictions, it has been amazing to see what the school, parents, children, our community, and the PTA team have achieved this year. It has been an incredible, what a first year to join the PTA team. The fund-raising events have been inventive, providing fun for the children and a little light relief from the daily challenges.
The events list for 2010/21 demonstrates the variety of events we have run over the year. Our success is absolutely down to the fantastic SPPTA team we have, from the top down; from those who co-ordinate the
events, to those who help in the background, and especially those who take part. It is a part of what makes our school great!
The money raised funded a whole host of activities and projects:
| Chromebooks | £3150 |
|---|---|
| Doodle Maths | £1716 |
| Play Shed | £1253 |
| School Funding | £936 |
| Music Equipment | £450 |
| Summer Festival | £361 |
| Football Goals | £341 |
| Christmas Activities | £275 |
| Play Equipment | £200 |
| Mini Ovens | £185 |
| Mud kitchens | £114 |
During the year we have also been making many background changes to the PTA to assist in making it more accessible and streamlined for all involved. This has included introducing different payment platform options including PayPal, Card payment, online banking, Stripe to name just a few. This has had the team occupied during a quieter than usual year, so making use of the valuable time.
Our income position was subsidised by the following events, this list is not exclusive (some previous years results are detailed for comparison):

Reserves
It is the Trustees’ policy that we hold a reserve of £2000 in the account at any time to cover unforeseen circumstances . We also ringfence £1000 for annual commitments, including insurance, a Christmas show and a gift for the year 6 leavers. All money raised for specific causes is ringfenced. We discuss the long term funding requirements with the headteacher at our PTA meetings.
Risk Policy
The Trustees have considered all the principle risks to which the Charity may be exposed, they have put in place appropriate checks and balances. In particular:
-
An appropriate liability policy is in forms with PTA UK.
-
All cheques payments require the approval from two Trustees
-
Interim financial reports are provided at each of the regular PTA meetings
Once again, I would like to thank all the school children, parents, teachers, governors, friends and the wider community for supporting the SPPTA over the last twelve months. Without this help and support we would be unable to fund all these diverse activities and enhance our children’s school experiences.
