THE MILLS EDUCATIONAL FOUNDATION 

Providing special benefits of any kind not normally provided by the LEA for the Thomas Mills High School and promotion of education of children who reside or attend schools in Framlingham who are in need of financial assistance.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender and dynamic in terms of composition

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
