The constitution was updated and filed with OSCR on 19 March 2025. The charity has a membership of parents and staff who elect a committee for its day-today operations. The charity is affiliated to the Scottish Parent Teacher Council. The Trustees of the charity are the committee members who are elected annually at the Annual General Meeting. The Committee requires a minimum of 4 trustees, 2 of whom will be appointed as Chair and Treasurer. New trustees are recruited and appointed from the parent body of the school. The Trustees who served during the year were as follows: Phoebe Bois Chair Ros Taylor Joint treasurer Gillian Swan Joint treasurer Humsha Rice Jan McNeillie Marco Magnante Jennifer Dunnett ## **Charitable purposes and activities** The purpose of the Association is to advance the education of the pupils in the school by providing and/or assisting in the provision of facilities for education at the school (not normally provided by the local education authority) and engage in activities which support the school and advance the education of those attending it. The Charity carries out fundraising and social activities in order to raise funds and to foster a sense of community between staff, parents and others associated with the school. The Charity makes donations to the school which supports the advancement of education for the pupils. ## **Achievements and performance** During the school year 2024/25, our regular fundraising activities have continued running community cafes for young competitors and their families attending chess competitions run by Lothian Junior Chess taking place at Broughton High School. As our last event of the year, we were invited back to provide hot drinks and homebakes for Scotland’s Gardens Scheme Open Day at Dean Gardens on 8 June 2025. The total funds raised through these cafés was £4,044. We have a Committee Member who receives donations in exchange for her volunteer time from her employer State Street’s company volunteer scheme. This raised £764 from hours worked in 2023-24. Donating to our charity via joining company volunteer schemes, ‘Give As You Earn’ schemes and match funding are regularly promoted out to all our school families in the hope that others can do the same.

Our EasyFundraising account continues to grow. This fundraising platform gets the charity free funding through donations from daily online shopping via websites or apps. It has raised a total of £60 for the year. We have an active Paypal account which has a QR code so it’s easy and accessible for anyone to make donations via this platform. This year we donated £8,948 to fund resources and various activities within the school. **----- Start of picture text -----**

Page 2 Brou hton Hi h School Association g g ## **Report of the Trustees** for the year ended 30 June 2025 ## **Future plans** During 2025/26 we will be continuing to run our regular community Chess Cafes, alongside organising other social events like a Quiz Night to fundraise for the school and help build a community amongst parents, carers and supporters. Working with Broughton High we continue to develop our engagement with school staff, pupils and parents so that there is a wider awareness of what BHSA does. This is being done via social media, promotion to parents via emails from school and posters in school, and promotion out into the local community. BHSA Committee Members continue to meet once a month, usually on a Wednesday evening, during termtime. New parents/carers are always welcome to join, especially those with ideas for or want to be part of our Committee. Our email address is bhsassociation@gmail.com. Our website (https://broughtonhighpc.org/broughton-high-school-association) is up to date and we regularly post blog updates on our website, and updates on our Parent Council social media. In June 2025 we produced our first end of year newsletter https://sway.cloud.microsoft/gl7ryPHxWT2lH2o9?ref=Link which is available to view on our website and was circulated to all families at the school. ## **Financial review** ## _**Results for the year**_ The Accounts for the year are set out on pages 5 to 7. The Receipts and Payments Account on page 6 shows a deficit of £5,241 (2024: deficit of £3,617). The funds held at 30 June 2025 were £5,159 (2024: £10,400) of which £2,215 (2024: £5,675) was unrestricted and £2,944 (2024: £4,725) was restricted. ## _**Reserves**_ The Charity does not have a reserves policy as it is not committed to provide any specific funding to the school in any year. Donations are only made as and when funds are available. ## **Signed on behalf of the Trustees on 5 March 2026.** Dr Rosalind Taylor **Dr Rosalind Taylor Trustee and Treasurer** Page 3 Brou hton Hi h School Association g g **Report of the Independent Examiner to the Trustees** for the year ended 30 June 2025 I report on the accounts of the charity for the period ended 30 June 2025 which are set out on pages 5 to 7. ## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner** The Charity’s Trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the terms of the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended). The Charity’s Trustees consider that the audit requirement of Regulation 10(1) (d) of the Accounts Regulations does not apply. It is my responsibility to examine the accounts as required under section 44(1) (c) of the Act and to state whether particular matters have come to my attention. ## **Basis of Independent Examiner’s statement** My examination is carried out in accordance with Regulation 11 of the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended). An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeks explanations from the trustees concerning such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts. ## **Independent Examiner’s statement** In the course of my examination, no matter has come to my attention 1. which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements: - to keep accounting records in accordance with Section 44(1) (a) of the 2005 Act and Regulation 4 of the 2006 Accounts Regulations (as amended), and - to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with Regulation 9 of the 2006 Accounts Regulations (as amended) have not been met, or 2. to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
