In November 2024, there was a change in Treasurer. Regrettably, there was very little handover and this caused significant organisational difficulties, including banking and systems access. Since then, the current Trustees have endeavoured to make sure that handover prOsseS are more robust and that the Treasurer's role is more collaborative. Part of Ihis has been a move to more regular meetings between Ihe Trustees and the school admin staff, so that funds are distributed and being put to use in a timely manner. Access to accounling records is more open. while retaining the robuslness of a dual-signatory requirement. Cheques must be signed by 2 Trustees. BACS payments are made by the Treasurer (implied consent) only with written consent of anolher Truslee.

Summary of the objects of the charity set out in its governing document TAR March 2012
All Trustee's have had due regard to the Charity Commission's public benefit guidance. In this instsnce, the "public" is primarily the children of Sl Peter's C of E Primary School, Budleigh Salterton. Much of the focus this year has been on getting the charity's existing funds into the school and making a direct difference lo the children. Last year, St Peter's PTA had a surplus of £20034- in essence, money that had been donated or fundraised for the benefit of the school, but had been retained in the bank. This year, we are happy to report that funds distributed exceeded funds held by £7363- this shows we are getting the money to where it is needed and those parents of Year 516 pupils get lo see the benefit for their children, while still retaining the neSSary reserves and ring-fenced funds. Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to these objects {include within this section the statutory declaration that trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit) In lolal, we have distributed £55084 to the school this year. £23052 of this was simply passing on donations and others, fundraising efforts for school classroom refurbishments12025 Fundraising Challenge- New Year, New Classrooms}. £10,000 was passing on donations specifically given to fund air-conditioning units in classrooms. Most of the rest has been money raised directly by the PTA. Working alongside the Headteacher, we have strived to spread spending in such a way as to benefit pupils across age, gender and ability,. strike a balance between the academic and the extra-curricular., and also support capital investment wilhin the school. This has included.. Maths and Dyslexia resources, pantomimes, phonics and early year's resources, leaving gifts for Year 6's, classroom and shed refurbishments, educational class trips, theatre and art workshops, goalposts, science garden compost and much more. 11 is the Trustee's hope that every single child has felt the benefit in some wa or other this asl ear. Additional details of objectives and activities (Optional information) Funds are distributed principally via the school. Monthly PTA meetings are held where the Treasurer confirms how much we have lo distribute (funds held less reserves. restricted funds and existing funding commitments). The Headteacher requests funding for specific ilems and those present vole on whether Ihis falls within the charitable objects. The Chair has the casting vote. You may choose to include further statements, where relevant, about.. policy on grantmaking., policy programme related inveslment- contribution made by volunteers. TAR March 2012
Summary of the maln achievements of the charity during the year This year the PTAS income has been an incredible £49978. However, enormous praise and thanks must first be given to some very generous donors and fundraising children who donaled £25125 towards Ihe 2025 Fundraising Challenge- New Year, New Classrooms. As a result oflheir phenomenal efforts Ilhe PTA primarily banking and passing on money to the school), one of the outdoor-temporary" classrooms has been completely overhauled. Notable Suc$$fUl events organised by the PTA this year included the Christmas Fair, Summer Fair, Movie Nights, Quiz Night, school photos and a project where we bought a disused phone box and sold advertising. Many thanks to all the volunteers who spent many hours uploading photos to our web shop, manning tuck shops and barbeques, designing advertising posters, collecting foliage for wreaths, potting Mother's Day plants etc. The list goes on and apologies for any who we forget lo mentionl St. Peter's PTA is incredibly lucky to have so many wonderful parents who give up so much of their time to help.

Section F Other optional information This year, we have moved from accruals-based accounting to Receipts and Payments reporting. This was agreed as per the Treasurer's Report presented lo the Board of Trustees on 1410112025. Given that the Charity does not have over £250000 annual income, hold significant depreciating assels and is not required to present accruals accounts as part of any grants or conslitutions- it seems sensible to simplify reporting so that tasks can be easily handed over between Treasurers and accounts easily understood by laypeople. The previous year's accruals-based accounts have been imported into this format, with the categories and values Iransposed as far as practicable. The trustèes declare that they have approved the trustees, report above. Signed on behalf of the charity's trustees TAR March 2012
