WILLIAM ELLIS SCHOOL PARENTS ASSOCIATION 

WESPA advances the education of William Ellis School pupils by organising activities that raise money to add value to the pupils' education and are beyond the normal School budget. We encourage parents to become involved and organise social events for parents and/or pupils to build and/or maintain the School community. We carry out activities in line with PTA-UK guidelines
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • 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:

  • This charity does not have a Conflict of Interests policy
  • The Board is predominantly female
  • Over half the Board have joined recently

Financial issues to consider:

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