## **1. DEVOLVED FORMULA CAPITAL (DFC)** 

The money received from the Diocese is ring fenced for any capital building works and computer hardware/software purchases to improve the school. Since the school’s external audit, we have now been advised this money is now to be transferred to the budget account. The total DFC funds of £45,729.36 were transferred to the budget account initially. We also then received a sum of £25,600.73 which was also transferred leaving a zero balance in the school fund account of DFC capital funds. 



## **2. PUPIL/STAFF PARTIES** 

Organised parties include the Year 11 prom and the Year 13 leavers prom for students who are leaving. There was a total of £4,410.59 received towards the cost of the parties and £3056.20 paid out to suppliers this year. 

## **3. EDUCATIONAL VISITS** 

Various trips nationwide and abroad take place every year including Rome, Italy ski trip and Castlerigg. The funds are received from ParentPay and then paid for from the school fund account. A total of £15,567.20 was received this year towards trips and £11,281.00 was paid out. 

## **4. DONATIONS** 

We only receive small donations – these include commission from our school photographers which totalled £500.04 this year. The school sometimes donates small amounts to students who incur a large cost for overseas visits which do not relate directly to the school. 

## **5. FUND RAISING** 

The school regularly organises various activities/events to raise money for a wide range of charities. Each year group now has their own chosen charity that they fundraise for. Some of this year’s activities included non-uniform days, cake sales and quizzes. The total amount fundraised this year was £2707.46. Mary’s Meals, West Cumbria Carers, Breast & prostate Cancer UK, and the British Ukrainian Aid were the main beneficiaries this year. 

## **6. FLOWERS/GIFTS** 

We occasionally arrange gifts for staff members, bereaved parents etc 

## **7. MISCELLANEOUS** 

Anything not relating to anything specific e.g., student school hoodies, tickets for shows, yearbook and school tie purchases. We also receive funds from ParentPay for calculators, revision books, food ingredients and music tuition which is then transferred to the budget account to offset the costs paid from there.

Dear Mrs Thomson 

## **St Benedict’s School Fund** 

Armstrong Watson has examined the books and records of the St Benedict’s School Fund for the year to 31 August 2022. Income and Expenditure appears to be in line with the underlying records and expenditure incurred during the year appears to have been expended in accordance with the purpose of the fund and in line with Governor’s instructions. 

However, we did find one fundamental issue for the year in question: 

- In the past money received from the DFE was not transferred to the Budget account. This has been corrected and all money has been transferred to the correct account. 

There are no other matters in respect of the maintenance of the accounting records or in the preparation of the Income and Expenditure Account. 

Yours sincerely
