employers generated £19,198 (2024: £7,689),
representing a substantial increase compared
with the prior year.

(2024: £1,396).

Total fundraising and other income for the year
resulted in a net surplus before grants to the
school of £35,475 (2024: £32,623).
Funds paid to the school
During the year, BSA provided £40,880 in funding
directly to the school (2024: £310). This significant
increase reflects the timing of funding requests
approved during the year, including support for
departmental bids, school commitments, and the
school minibus.
As a result of this increased level of support, the
Association recorded an overall deficit for the
year of £5,567 (2024: surplus of £30,513).
Trustees consider this tobe an intentional and
appropriate use of accumulated reserves to deliver
benefit to the school.

financial position at the balances of £41,882 (2024: £47,450), held across
