||I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of the above<br>charity (“the Trust”) for the year ended 31 / 08 / 2025.<br>As the charity's trustees, you are responsible for the preparation of the<br>accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011<br>(“the Act”).|||



I report in respect of my examination of  the Trust’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination, I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act. 

- **Independent** I have completed my examination.  I confirm that no material matters have 

- **examiner's statement** come to my attention in connection with the examination (other than that disclosed below *) which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect: 

   - the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; or 

   - the accounts did not accord with the accounting records; or 

   - • the accounts did not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair’ view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination. 

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

**ENGLEFIELD CE SCHOOL PARENT TEACHER ASSOCIATION** 

## **TRUSTEES' ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST AUGUST 2024** 

Charity registration number: 

286442 

Address: Englefield CE Primary School, The Street, Englefield RG7 5ER 

Trustees: 

Mrs F Cheney (Chair) Miss K Fox Mrs N Jackson Mrs A Tomes 

## Structure, governance & management 

The charity is an unincorporated Parent Teacher Association and is governed by its Constitution. All parents and teachers are members of the charity. Trustees are appointed at the AGM in accordance with the Constitution (updated October 2019) and are drawn from the membership of the PTA. 

## Object of the charity 

The object of the Association is to advance the education of the pupils of Englefield CE School by providing and assisting in the provision of facilities for education at the school. 

## Activities undertaken during the year 

We had a great year fundraising for the school, we were able to hold a variety of events incorporating not only the children with our autumn party, bake sales, break the rules day, rainbow raffle, but also families at our Christmas and summer fetes.  We were also able to put on a bingo and bubbles night for adults only.  It’s been a great year and we have had a wonderful level of support from the teachers and parents alike! 

## Reserves policy 

It is the charity's policy to hold as reserves an amount in the region of £12,000, this has increased slightly from the previous year to account for the increase in costs throughout the year. This reserve is to be kept in the event of fundraising income ceasing, this level of reserves would give the school sufficient funds for a year to cover existing commitments. 

The current level of free reserves is £21,695.47. The level of reserves can fluctuate, depending on the timing of when the school carries out particular spending.  During the Autumn Term 2025 the Trustees will be in conversation with the school to discuss future spending requirements. 

## Restricted Funds
