3 Objectives and Activities
The aim of PACT is to advance the education of pupils at Stamford Bridge Primary School by assisting in the provision of facilities for education at the school, not normally provided by the Local Education Authority. These facilities also include the provision of a swimming pool for the school.
These objectives are achieved through a series of fundraising events organised by PACT. Events normally held in a non-pandemic year include: Christmas fair, Summer Fair, Lottery, discos and other smaller activities.
The Pool is operated by a sub-committee of PACT and the facility is provided free of charge for school swimming lessons. A great deal has been spent on essential maintenance in order to keep the pool running this year. The pool has maintained a moderate income through private hire even though frequent breakdowns of the boiler has meant closure and some disruption to users. It has still been seen of great benefit to users.
Public benefit statement: the Trustees have complied with their duty to have due regard to the guidance on public benefit published by the Commission in exercising their powers or duties.
4 Achievements and Performance
This has been another difficult year for all concerned with the continuation of Covid-19 and its restrictions and limitations. This has again hindered the organising of events to raise funds. Despite this, PACT has continued to serve the pupils and teachers of the school community. PACT has generated a reasonable overall income of approximately £23,000 from fundraising events and exceptional community spirit and generosity. This effort enabled PACT to continue to support the swimming pool as well as focus on the main objective of the school to continue to raise funds for large interactive screens to be installed within each of the main halls and the classrooms.
5 Financial Review
Overall, PACT’s income was over £70,000. This is considerable given the continuing difficult circumstances with which to fundraise: in addition to fundraising income streams were from pool hire fees £27304. Overheads were £40700; the main expenditure being pool operating costs and wages of £30042.
