Public benefits
Purpose 1: Improved relationships between home and school The benefit which flows from this purpose includes funding for additional resources for the school and links built with the local community. This is demonstrated through having an active PTA that works in partnership with the school and engages parental support. This purpose does not lead to
harm. The benefit is for children at Randalstown Central Primary School. Charity trustees (PTA committee members) are usually also parents at the school which their children attend and hence gain benefit in the same way as all other beneficiaries. This benefit is incidental and necessary to ensure the benefit is provided to all beneficiaries. Purpose 2: Advancing the education of pupils in the school The benefit which flows from this purpose includes increased educational progress and attainment of pupils in the school and links built with the local community. This is demonstrated through pupils having access to resources, events, activities and links with the local community which are not available through direct school funding.

Our organisation is made up of a group of elected mums, dads and staff. As a group we strive to ensure that all parents and staff are actively involved in our operation. We do this by seeking regular feedback on events and operation, looking for parental / staff skills to aid run clubs and help at events. We believe that good communication is key
and that is why we publish regular news letters and keep parents updated. We also work closely with the other local schools and their PTA's to help improve the local area and build awareness and communication links between us for the betterment of all the children in the locality. Through the PTA's and schools working together we are improving cross community relationships. Every year we organise a calendar of fund raising activities and these include family and children only events example of these last year were the family fun day. Alongside the school we agree the expenditure of funds in that they will always be used to purchase educational resources or equipment for all the pupils in the school. .
