THE TOTTENHAM GRAMMAR SCHOOL FOUNDATION
TRUSTEES' REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2023
The trustees present their annual report and financial statements for the year ended 31 August 2023.
The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the accounts and comply with the charity's Scheme, the Charities Act 2011 and “Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2015)”
Objectives and activities
The objects of the charity are to promote the education of persons under the age of 25 years who or whose parents are resident in the London Borough of Haringey or who have at any time attended as a pupil at a school in that London Borough and who are in need of financial assistance. Further objects are to provide benefits at any maintained schools and colleges in the London Borough of Haringey that are not normally provided by the Local Education Authority or Governing Body. The trustees confirm that they have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance in public benefit when reviewing the Trust's aims and objectives and in planning future activities and setting the grant making policies for the year.
The policy and objectives of the charity continue to be fulfilled through the finances raised from its sound
investment portfolio.
Unlike last year, it is generally held that the foundation’s operations have now returned to levels similar to those prior to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the numbers of students’ applications and claims for Somerset and Somerset Undergraduate Awards continue to be lower than previous years. As in the previous three years, overall expenditure for the 2022-2023 year also remained below the budgeted level.
Grant making policy
For the period covered by this report, the individual Somerset Undergraduate Award's total value was set at the new maximum of £1,150 payable to an eligible student in annual instalments of £250 for their first year, £350 for their second year and £550 for their third year. The third year instalment had previously been £450. The Somerset (further education) Award remained at £250 per year.
The rules and conditions for Somerset Awards and Somerset Undergraduate Awards are reviewed annually. At their meeting held in February 2023 the trustees decided that no changes were necessary at that time. The current conditions can be viewed in Appendix 4 of this report. For 2022-2023, the trustees made no changes to the previous year's budget heads. The list of budget heads was as follows: arts, borough-wide/post schools, educational activities, P.E and games, primary schools, primary schools book budget, Somerset awards, scholarships, special needs in mainstream schools, special schools and administration.
The foundation's awards committee closely monitors the demand levels for both types of Somerset Awards. The Somerset Individualised Supplementary Award operates in partnership with the College of Haringey, Enfield and North East London’s learner support team to help provide targeted support to young Haringey residents who might otherwise fail to reach their potential due to personal and or family economic constraints. Trustees have maintained a budget of £15,000 for this purpose but awards with a total value of only £5,550 were made in the 2022-2023 Academic Year (£6,350 were made in 2021-2022).
Achievements and performance
Occasional visits by the trustees to schools and other establishments have yet to return to the pre-pandemic level. In the past, these visits have formed an important part of the foundation's year providing opportunities for informal meetings between staff, students and trustees.
Awards and grants totalling £1,129,779 (£1,060,013 in 2021-2022) were paid during the year. 99 grants of £1,000 or more were made to schools and other institutions. Details of the 54 largest aggregated payments to organisations during the year can be found in Appendix 1, attached to the accounts.
The provision for Somerset Awards in the foundation's budget for 2022-2023 was £350,000 (£345,000 in 20212022) and awards totalling £216,248 (£247,607 in 2021-2022) were paid during the year.

THE TOTTENHAM GRAMMAR SCHOOL FOUNDATION
TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2023
In 2022-2023 a significant number of students, 111 out of 436 (25%), failed to take up their Undergraduate Award. As in previous years, this figure could not be forecasted with any degree of accuracy. However, it is almost identical to the 26% rate in 2021-2022.
During the year a total of 193 new Somerset Undergraduate Awards were approved. This is almost identical to the 192 in the previous year. The early indications for 2023-2024 are that the decreasing numbers seen in recent years are continuing.
For Somerset Awards, there was a further decrease in the number of students applying. The 18% reduction in 2022-2023 (14% decrease in 2021-2022) over the previous year seems to be a continuation of the effects of the pandemic and, possibly, some demographic changes. Early indications for 2023-2024 show that the level is continuing to decrease.
The foundation approved 61 Special Somerset Awards totalling £43,198 for the year compared to 51 in 20212022 for a total amount of £53,157.
Grants to the value of £210,777 were given specifically for primary schools during the year (£176,625 in 20212022). This total includes grants made under the Books for Primary Schools budget. The foundation continues to provide grants to schools for the cost of musical instrument hire as part of the Borough's Whole Class Instrumental Teaching scheme. Each year a fixed formula is agreed with the Head of Haringey's Music Service. 49 classes in 23 schools had participated in the scheme during 2022-2023 (44 classes in 23 schools during 2021-2022).
Trustees have continued to use their discretion when considering requests for grants from secondary schools so as to comply with the requirement contained within the Scheme that these be restricted to those items not normally provided by the Local Education Authority. Grants approved in 2022-2023 were predominately to help with the costs of school trips and usually, trustees will restrict such grants to the benefit of pupils from families in financial hardship. Amongst the destinations this year were, Pendarren, Northamptonshire, Waterloo, Edinburgh, Kent, Cobham, Essex, Berlin, Snowdonia, France, USA, Canada, South Korea, Singapore, Thailand, Morocco, Spain, Denmark and Turkey.
During the year grants totalling £53,670 were paid for Grants to Special Schools and Special Needs in mainstream schools (£50,070 in 2021-2022). The foundation's assistance to young people with special needs who have moved into post-school education continues to be a high priority and trustees have been pleased to continue the sponsorship of a number of trainees at the Harington Scheme which prepares young people with learning difficulties for careers in horticulture. In 2022-2023 £42,000 was approved for this purpose (£38,500 in 2021-2022). Where there is variation between years, it is directly related to the number of Haringey residents joining the Scheme.
The agreement between the foundation, the local authority and the local NHS Trust regarding funding for communication aids for Special Needs pupils with severe disabilities has continued to be in place. However, no Special Somerset AAC (Augmentative and Alternative Communication) Awards were requested in 2022-2023. Each partner has committed to earmark an annual sum of £20,000 therefore creating a total fund of £60,000 for this very important service. The scheme is coordinated by the team of Speech and Language Therapists (SLTs) based at the Vale Special School. This team also provide an initial assessment function for the Foundation’s nonAAC Special Somerset Award applications for Special Needs pupils.
Grants totalling £230,669 (£238,421 in 2021-2022) were awarded during the year for Physical Education and Games. A wide variety of sports in the borough received some form of aid, either directly or indirectly, from the foundation. The Haringey Sports Development Trust receives a significant number of Somerset Grants each year. They will occasionally act on behalf of some of the smaller sports clubs in the Borough and often provide additional support to new clubs. Some of the Trust’s initiatives are designed to create, and sometimes re-create, clubs in under-represented sports in targeted locations. The Trust uses a significant proportion of its funding from the Foundation to play a key role in planning, coordinating and developing the Borough’s many teams competing in the London Youth Games, London Mini Marathon and School Games. This enabled Haringey Borough to beat all of the 32 other teams and become overall London Youth Games 2023 Champions for the second consecutive year.

THE TOTTENHAM GRAMMAR SCHOOL FOUNDATION
TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2023
Grants totalling £61,758 (£42,440 in 2021-2022) were given during 2022-2023 for the Arts in Haringey schools and voluntary organisations. Grants were awarded for a variety of purposes including visits to theatres and art galleries and performances by both school and borough-wide groups. Trustees will usually try to attend some of these and, when they can, continue to be impressed by the generally high level of the work achieved.
Grants totalling £45,467 (£9,892 in 2021-2022) were paid out in 2022-2023 for assistance with school journeys, educational visits and attendance at sporting events or special courses. The assistance which the Foundation provides also enables many young people to participate in a large number of activity programmes. Recent years have seen an increase in funding requests from the Haringey Learning Partnership which aims to re-integrate to mainstream schools pupils who have been placed in one of their referral centres across the Borough. Amongst the Somerset Grants made were projects involving sailing, bee-keeping and cycle mechanics.
Financial review
The inflationary pressures created by COVID and the war in Ukraine in 2021 and 2022 persisted throughout the foundation’s financial year which ended in August 2023. The inevitable response to high inflation was for Central Banks to raise interest rates and tighten monetary policy which again created a poor environment for financial assets. During the twelve months of the Foundation’s year the return from the World Bond Index was a negative 9.0%. The Foundation, although not invested in conventional bonds, is invested in income generating assets which provided positive yields but suffered from falls in prices resulting in an overall return of minus 5.0%. Equity markets remained weak throughout 2022 but have made some recovery during 2023 and for the foundation year the World Equity Index was up 5.2% with strong returns from Europe and the US and weaker returns coming from Asia and Emerging Markets. The foundation’s equity investments were up 1.7% over the same period. The foundation’s small property investment suffered from an asset value reduction and as a result produced a negative return of 12.9%. Overall, the Total Return for the foundation’s portfolio was a -0.6%* compared to the - 0.1% reported for the ARC index of comparable investors. The Trustees believe that despite this disappointing year, the long-term performance of the Foundation’s assets justifies maintaining its awards and grant budget at £1,350,000 for the 2023-2024 financial year.
- GIPS compliant Time Weighted Rate of Return
Reserves policy
The trustees recognise that they are publicly accountable for their stewardship of the foundation's funds. It is acknowledged that there is a regulatory requirement to explain any policy trustees have for holding reserves of unrestricted funds and to state the amounts of those reserves and why they are held. Noting that all of the foundation's funds are restricted, the trustees have accepted that recognising as reserves any figure other than the reported fund balance at the close of the financial year is unnecessary. Therefore, the need for a policy on the holding of reserves is also negated. The fund balance as at 31 August 2023 was £23,622,581.
Risk assessment
The Trustees acknowledge their responsibility to actively identify and manage risks. The foundation’s finance committee considers risks at each of its meetings by reviewing the investment objective of the foundation which is "to diversify by asset class and to diversify by manager within asset class". This is coupled with the need to "balance yield with potential capital gain to maintain the long term real value of the foundation's grant and award programme". The trustees believe that maintaining the free reserves as stated above, will provide sufficient resources in the event of adverse conditions. This, combined with an annual review of controls over key financial systems, enables them to confirm that appropriate systems are in place to mitigate significant risks.
The future
Whilst assistance to individual young people lies at the heart of the foundation’s activities and must continue to be given priority, trustees cannot ignore the needs of schools and voluntary groups within the borough where, within the terms of the scheme for the regulation of the foundation, much assistance can be made available. Trustees have to rely on the co-operation of the Local Education Authority and the management committees of the voluntary groups in ensuring that the best use is made of all that the foundation can provide.

THE TOTTENHAM GRAMMAR SCHOOL FOUNDATION
TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2023
Appointment of trustees is governed by the Scheme of the Charity. The Board of Trustees is authorised to appoint co-opted trustees to fill vacancies arising through the resignation or death of an existing trustee.
The clerk to the foundation, Mr G Chappell, who is appointed by the trustees, manages the day-to-day operations
of the charity.
The body of trustees shall consist of not less than nine and not more than eleven competent persons being two nominated trustees and not less than seven and not more than nine co-opted trustees. The nominated trustees shall be appointed by the London Borough of Haringey as local education authority.
Every nominated trustee appointed by the London Borough of Haringey shall be appointed for a term of office ending on the date of the appointment of his or her successor (which may be made at any time after the date next following his or her appointment on which members of that body ordinarily retire).
Co-opted trustees shall be appointed for a term of five years.
The trustees may from time to time appoint a committee or committees consisting of not less than three members of their body for dealing with any matter of administration delegated to such committee or committees on such terms as the Trustees think fit; provided that all proceedings of such committee or committees shall be reported to a full meeting of the trustees as soon as reasonably possible. To date there are the finance committee and the awards committee. Mr Keith Brown was re-elected chairman of the finance committee and Mr Graham Kantorowicz replaced Ms Victoria Phillips as chairman of the awards committee. However, with effect from the November 2015 meeting cycle, it was agreed that the work of the finance committee should be subsumed into the agenda for the main trustees meeting. Due to the pandemic the awards committee’s business was also subsumed, but on a temporary basis, into the agenda of the main trustees meeting. No other changes were made to the committee structure.
New Trustees are provided with an initial document pack which includes the Foundation’s Trust Deed with all its updates, minutes of recent meetings, recent Annual Reports and the latest relevant guidance documents from the Charity Commission. They are also provided with an opportunity to meet with the Clerk to the Foundation to discuss these and any other matters that might assist them in performing their role. Invitations from a range of training providers that might be of interest to various Trustees, both new and long-standing, are included on the agenda for each Trustees meeting.
The Trust Deed authorises the trustees to make and hold investments using the general funds of the charity. They have the power to delegate this authority to investment advisers. The trustees have exercised this authority.

THE TOTTENHAM GRAMMAR SCHOOL FOUNDATION
TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2023
Statement of Trustees' responsibilities
The trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees' Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources of the charity for that year.
In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation.
The trustees are responsible for keeping sufficient accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the trust deed. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
The Trustees' report was approved by the Board of Trustees.

THE TOTTENHAM GRAMMAR SCHOOL FOUNDATION
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE TOTTENHAM GRAMMAR SCHOOL FOUNDATION
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of The Tottenham Grammar School Foundation (the ‘charity’) for the year ended 31 August 2023 which comprise the statement of financial activities, the balance sheet, the statement of cash flows and notes to the financial statements, including significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
In our opinion, the financial statements:
-
give a true and fair view of the state of the charity’s affairs as at 31 August 2023 and of its income and expenditure for the year then ended;
-
have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and
-
have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Conclusions relating to going concern
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the Trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.
Other information
The trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.
We have nothing to report in this regard.

THE TOTTENHAM GRAMMAR SCHOOL FOUNDATION
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT (CONTINUED)
TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE TOTTENHAM GRAMMAR SCHOOL FOUNDATION
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the charity and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Trustees' report.
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Charities Act 2011 require us to report to you if, in our opinion:
-
the information given in the financial statements is inconsistent in any material respect with the Trustees' report; or
-
sufficient accounting records have not been kept; or
-
the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records; or
-
we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.
Responsibilities of trustees
As explained more fully in the statement of Trustees' responsibilities (set out on page 6), the trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
We have been appointed as auditor under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with the Act and relevant regulations made or having effect thereunder.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud, is detailed below.
Our approach to identifying and assessing the risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, was as follows:
-
the engagement partner ensured that the engagement team collectively had the appropriate competence, capabilities and skills to identify or recognise non-compliance with applicable laws and regulations;
-
we identified the laws and regulations applicable to the charity through discussions with trustees and other management, and from our commercial knowledge and experience;
-
we focused on specific laws and regulations which we considered may have a direct material effect on the financial statements or the operations of the charity;
-
we assessed the extent of compliance with the laws and regulations identified through making enquiries of management and inspecting legal correspondence; and
-
identified laws and regulations were communicated within the audit team regularly and the team remained alert to instances of non-compliance throughout the audit.
We assessed the susceptibility of the company’s financial statements to material misstatement, including obtaining an understanding of how fraud might occur, by:
-
making enquiries of management as to where they considered there was susceptibility to fraud, their knowledge of actual, suspected and alleged fraud;
-
considering the internal controls in place to mitigate risks of fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations.
-

THE TOTTENHAM GRAMMAR SCHOOL FOUNDATION
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT (CONTINUED)
TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE TOTTENHAM GRAMMAR SCHOOL FOUNDATION
To address the risk of fraud through management bias and override of controls, we:
-
performed analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships;
-
tested journal entries to identify unusual transactions;
-
assessed whether judgements and assumptions made in determining accounting estimates were indicative of potential bias;
-
investigated the rationale behind significant or unusual transactions.
In response to the risk of irregularities and non-compliance with laws and regulations, we designed procedures which included, but were not limited to:
-
agreeing financial statement disclosures to underlying supporting documentation;
-
reading the minutes of meetings of those charged with governance;
-
enquiring of management as to actual and potential litigation and claims;
There are inherent limitations in our audit procedures described above. The more removed that laws and regulations are from financial transactions, the less likely it is that we would become aware of non-compliance. Auditing standards also limit the audit procedures required to identify non-compliance with laws and regulations to enquiry of the directors and other management and the inspection of regulatory and legal correspondence, if any.
Material misstatements that arise due to fraud can be harder to detect than those that arise from error as they may involve deliberate concealment or collusion.
A further description of our responsibilities is available on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: https:// www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor's report.
Use of our report
This report is made solely to the charity's trustees, as a body, in accordance with section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and the regulations made under section 154 of that Act. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charity's trustees those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor's report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity's trustees as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2023
12 Fixed asset investments
(Continued)
All investments are carried at their fair value. Investments in equities and fixed interest securities are all traded in quoted public markets. The basis of fair value for quoted investments is equivalent to the market value, using the bid price. Asset sales and purchases are recognised at the date of trade at cost (that is their transaction value).
The charity is hardly exposed to any credit risk as all its income are derived from investments. Liquidity risk is anticipated to be low as all assets are traded and the commitment to intervention by central banks and market regulators has continued to provide for orderly trading in the markets and so the ability to buy and sell quoted equities and stock is anticipated to continue. The charity's investments are mainly traded in markets with good liquidity and high trading volumes. The charity has no material investment holding in markets subject to exchange controls or trading restrictions.
The charity manages its market risk by retaining expert advisors and operating an investment policy that provides for a high degree of diversification of holdings within investment asset classes that are quoted on recognised stock exchanges. The charity does not make use of derivatives or other similar complex financial instruments.
The value of the investment is split between 28% in the UK and 72% outside of the UK.

Appendix 5
THE TOTTENHAM GRAMMAR SCHOOL FOUNDATION
ADVICE TO SCHOOLS WHEN SUBMITTING REQUESTS FOR GRANTS
Please Note: INFORMATION ON PUPIL PREMIUM FUNDING (see paragraph 2 overleaf) IS NOW A REQUIREMENT
The Foundation cannot fund: Clause 32 of the Scheme for the regulation of the Foundation says: “THE CHARITY NOT TO RELIEVE PUBLIC FUNDS. The Trustees shall not apply income of the Charity directly in relief of rates, taxes or other public funds but may apply income in supplementing relief or assistance provided out of public funds”.
This is interpreted as the Foundation cannot fund:
-
the direct delivery of the National Curriculum
-
the employment of staff
-
the construction, adaptation, repair and maintenance of buildings
-
the repair and maintenance of equipment
-
the provision of computers and other ICT equipment
-
the purchase of vehicles
Clause 22 of the Scheme for the regulation of the Foundation says: “APPLICATION OF INCOME. (1) Subject to payment of the expenses aforesaid the Trustees shall apply the income of the Charity in one or more of the following ways:- (i) in promoting the education (including social and physical training) of persons under the age of 25 years….”
Therefore the Foundation cannot fund:
-
the training of staff
-
resources exclusively for parents
-
the cost of adults attending school trips
-
any grants for people aged 25 years or over
The Foundation can help fund: Clause 22 of the Scheme for the regulation of the Foundation also says: “…. (ii) in providing such special benefits at any maintained school or college in the said London borough as are not normally provided by the local education authority or the governing body;”
This is interpreted as the Foundation can fund (or help fund):
-
school journeys (usually limited to supporting pupils in financial hardship)
-
visiting theatre/arts groups’ performances and workshops
-
equipment for extra-curricular activities, e.g. for outdoor play, indoor play
-
enrichment activities
The Foundation prefers:
-
all applications to be made or endorsed by the Head Teacher (in any event, return correspondence will always be addressed to the Head)
-
applications for specialist equipment or resources to be accompanied by the endorsement of the relevant Borough Specialist Advisor, e.g. Music, Books, etc
-
not to be the sole provider of funds for a project: applications should try and show that other contributions are being/have been sought, e.g. PTA, other Trusts, school/Borough budgets, etc
-
to be asked to contribute towards specific events, projects or purchases rather than to provide a grant as a general subsidy for a particular budget or fund within a school
37
Appendix 5 (continued)
THE TOTTENHAM GRAMMAR SCHOOL FOUNDATION
-
applications to be clear and concise, signed and on the school headed notepaper and, where appropriate, accompanied by copies of suppliers’ quotes/estimates (more than one for large amounts – to demonstrate best value)
-
that where coach hire is part of an application, details of costs and vehicle capacities should be provided to demonstrate best value
-
to receive reports of how grants have been used, especially when repeat applications are submitted
Other Points:
-
1: Use of the Foundation’s “Somerset Grant (Schools)” application form, introduced in late 2007, is a requirement . It will often enable a quicker response time for a decision to be issued because it usually minimises the need to refer back to the School for missing information.
-
2: It is essential that information on Pupil Premium Funding, as requested in sections [3] , [8] and [9] of the application form is provided. Forms will be returned if this data is missing. Whilst the Trustees will make reference to a school’s website for its published statement on how it uses / has used its allocation of Pupil Premium Funding, the detail of how it relates to a particular application for a Somerset Grant will be relevant to the Foundation’s decision.
-
2: Where items purchased with granted funds could be regarded as a capital asset (e.g. a musical instrument), they should not be sold or ownership transferred without the permission of the Foundation. Furthermore, the Trustees will expect that, if the potential recipient is a charity or an educational institution, they should also be based or active in the London Borough of Haringey and the item should be donated without charge.
-
3: Colleagues responsible for preparing and submitting bids should be aware that the Foundation only meets every 8-10 weeks (but see note 4 below). You are strongly recommended to contact the Clerk of the Foundation to find out the date of the next meeting to avoid delays that may cause problems for your school.
-
4: In between meetings, the Chairman of the Foundation may agree to approve applications valued at £1,000 or less. Where this happens, the timescale mentioned in note 3 above does not apply.
-
5: The Committee’s or the Chairman’s decisions are usually notified to applicants within 7 to 10 days. However, notifications may take longer during the Autumn Term because of the Foundation’s extensive activity processing Undergraduate and college Awards for individual students. Schools may find it easier to check the status of their application by sending an email to the Clerk (see below).
-
6: The Clerk can be contacted by telephoning 020 8882 2999 or by emailing schools@tgsf.org.uk. Applications/bids should be sent to:
Tottenham Grammar School Foundation PO Box 34098 London N13 5XU

Appendix 6
THE TOTTENHAM GRAMMAR SCHOOL FOUNDATION
The Tottenham Grammar School Foundation’s objects are to promote the education of persons under the age of 25 years who are resident in the London Borough of Haringey or who have at any time attended as a pupil at a school in the Borough and to provide benefits at any maintained schools and colleges in the Borough which are not normally provided by the LEA or their Governing Body. The Foundation owes its origins to the late Sarah, Duchess of Somerset - extracts from her story are included overleaf.
ADVICE TO ORGANISATIONS WHEN SUBMITTING REQUESTS FOR GRANTS
Unlike many trusts, the Foundation does not adopt any ‘current priorities’ for its grant making decisions. This advice sheet is based on the Scheme for the Regulation of the Foundation (as approved by the Charity Commissioners) and the rules / conditions made from time to time by the Trustees within the limits prescribed by the Scheme. The Foundation tries to encourage creativity amongst the applications it receives – therefore the following guidance is primarily based on the restrictions that do exist.
Applications should be made on an “APPLICATION FOR A SOMERSET GRANT” form and should be accompanied by a fully completed “PRO FORMA FOR ORGANISATIONS” (unless one has already been submitted to the Foundation within the previous 18 months and the information thereby provided remains up to date). Applications are considered on their individual merits and in the context of any constraints that may be placed on the availability of the Foundation’s resources at the time.
The Foundation cannot fund: Clause 32 of the Scheme for the regulation of the Foundation says: “THE CHARITY NOT TO RELIEVE PUBLIC FUNDS. The Trustees shall not apply income of the Charity directly in relief of rates, taxes or other public funds but may apply income in supplementing relief or assistance provided out of public funds”.
This is interpreted as the Foundation cannot fund:
-
the employment of staff
-
the construction, adaptation, repair and maintenance of school buildings
-
the repair and maintenance of school equipment
-
the direct delivery of the National Curriculum
-
the purchase of vehicles
Clause 22 of the Scheme for the regulation of the Foundation says: “APPLICATION OF INCOME. (1) Subject to payment of the expenses aforesaid the Trustees shall apply the income of the Charity in one or more of the following ways:- (i) in promoting the education (including social and physical training) of persons under the age of 25 years who or whose parents are resident in the London Borough of Haringey or who have at any time attended as a pupil at a school in that London borough and who are in need of financial assistance …. (iii) in making grants to other charities which promote the education (including social and physical training) of persons referred to in paragraph (i) above.”
Therefore the Foundation cannot fund:
-
young people who do not live in the London Borough of Haringey unless they attend (or attended) a school in the Borough
-
the training of staff
-
resources exclusively for parents
-
the cost of adults attending trips
-
any grants for people aged 25 years or over
The Foundation prefers:
-
to receive, where an organisation has a wide catchment area or where it operates near the Borough’s boundaries, an indication of the number (or proportion) of expected beneficiaries who are resident in Haringey
-
not to be the sole provider of funds for a project: applications should try and show that other contributions are being/have been sought, e.g. PTA, other Trusts, school/Borough budgets, etc
-
to be asked to contribute towards specific events, projects or purchases rather than to provide a grant as a general subsidy for a particular budget or fund
-
applications to be clear and concise and, where appropriate, accompanied by copies of suppliers’ quotes/ estimates (more than one for large amounts – to demonstrate best value)
-
applications to be accompanied by a copy the organisation’s most recent audited accounts and, for first time applicants, a current constitution (or equivalent document) – see pro forma
-
that where coach hire is part of an application, details of costs and vehicle capacities should be provided to demonstrate best value
-
to receive reports of how grants have been used, especially when repeat applications are submitted
Other Points:
- 1: Where items purchased with granted funds could be regarded as a capital asset (e.g. a computer or a musical instrument), they should not be sold or ownership transferred without the permission of the Foundation. Furthermore, the Trustees will expect that, if the potential recipient is a charity or an educational institution, they should also be based or active in the London Borough of Haringey and the item should be donated without charge.

You are strongly recommended to contact the Clerk of the Foundation to find out the date of the next meeting to avoid delays that may cause problems for your organisation.
-
3: In between meetings, the Chairman of the Foundation may agree to approve applications valued at £1,000 or less. Where this happens, the timescale mentioned in note 2 above does not apply.
-
4: The Foundation may ask organisations to confirm that they have taken appropriate steps to comply with current Child Protection and Health & Safety recommended best practice for their sport or activity. Applicants should be prepared to answer this.
-
5: The Committee’s or the Chairman’s decisions are usually notified to applicants within 7 to 10 days. However, notifications may take longer during the Autumn Term because of the Foundation’s extensive activity processing Undergraduate and college Awards for individual students.

SARAH, DUCHESS OF SOMERSET
In her Will dated 17 May 1686 Sarah, Duchess of Somerset, included the following:
“ Also I do give and appoint the sum of two hundred and fifty pounds, to be expended, paid, and laid out by mine executors, in and for the making an additional building to the school house at Tottenham, near the High Cross, in the County of Middlesex, for the enlargement thereof; whereby it may be made capable to receive a greater number of scholars. Also I do give and appoint the further sum of eleven hundred pounds. . . . for the buying and purchasing of lands, rents, or other hereditaments, in fee simple, and they do settle the same for the support and maintenance of the school, and the master and usher of the said school for ever . . .”.
The Will continued to set the Master's salary at £40 per annum and the Usher's at £10 p.a. and laid down a number of provisions for the school, in particular that it was to provide free education for “ . . . . the children of all such people, inhabiting within the said Parish of Tottenham, as shall not have estates or their own, or free or copyhold, of twenty pounds per annum. ”
When Sarah died on 25 October 1692 she was buried in Westminster Abbey and in the fullness of time the terms of her Will were carried out and land purchased for the benefit of the school. Much of this land was sold by the Governors in the 1890's to Charterhouse School, and the remainder in 1927.
Sadly, the School which Sarah endowed did not survive ‘for ever’ and in 1987 the Governors had reluctantly to recommend its closure to the local education authority and the Secretary of State for Education. That recommendation was approved and the School, by now known as The Somerset School, finally closed its doors in July 1988 after more than 300 years serving Tottenham and Haringey boys.
A new, smaller body of Trustees was appointed to administer a new look and considerably wealthier Tottenham Grammar School Foundation. Most had been Governors of The Somerset School and were well aware of the traditions, both of the School and the Foundation.
Trustees have endeavoured to administer the Foundation as they imagine Sarah would have wished had she lived in the twenty-first century. By so doing, Trustees hope to be able to act within the spirit of her Will and continue to provide for the education of young people from Tottenham, thereby keeping Sarah, Duchess of Somerset, in her rightful place as a major influence in local education.
