Trustees’ Annual Report
This report covers the period 1 Oct 2019 to 30 Sep 2020 and is required by the Charity Commission to support the submission of audited accounts for the PTA as the gross income for the period exceeds £25,000.
The vast majority of the income for the period was raised through a number of fund raising activities specifically designed to raise money to ensure the continuing existence of Fletching CE Primary School. The school was under threat of closure by East Sussex County Council due to allegedly unsustainable finances caused by insufficient pupil numbers. The PTA and local community launched a vigorous campaign to remedy the finances in the short term and demonstrate that there was a medium to long term requirement for the school due to the quantity of planned and forecast development in the area. In addition the local community made a strong case for the less tangible community benefit provided by the school.
The fund raising campaign ran over this financial year and the previous one and raised in excess of £42,000 which together with funds raised in previous periods enabled the PTA to contribute £48,446 to the school. This, together with the robust defence of the school by the local community successfully persuaded East Sussex County Council to retain Fletching CE Primary School.
