STAPLEFORD COMMUNITY PRIMARY SCHOOL PTA 

Our organisation raises funds through staging a variety of school and community events such as: craft fairs; quiz nights; a summer fete; discos; uniform sales; recycling of textiles and other materials; sponsored events (such as fun run and spellathon); and participation in easyfundraising. We also apply for grants from charitable foundations.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
  • The charity has received Government grants
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • The Board is predominantly female

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period but has stabilised more recently
  • Income has been volatile recently but spending has been maintained
