ST THOMAS' C. E. SCHOOL P.T.A.

We organise fund raising events within the school community to raise funds to benefit all pupils
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • This charity has been very successful in attracting volunteers relative to its size
  • The charity has received modest backing from a grant maker
  • The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • Although this charity works with volunteers it does not have a Volunteer Management policy
  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • Why are there 13 trustees whereas the Charities Commission recommends a maximum of 12?
  • Why is the Board completely female?

Financial issues to consider:

  • On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
