CHRIST CHURCH PRIMARY SCHOOL PFA

Supporting the work of Christ Church Primary School, Brick Lane.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • The charity has received modest backing from several prominent grant makers recently and there are significant future grants due to be received
  • The Board appears to be dynamic in terms of composition

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • Over half the Board have joined recently
  • Returns have been filed late on 2 occasions over the last 5 years and the current period appears to have been extended

Financial issues to consider:

  • Income has been volatile recently
  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
