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 Greenisland 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. This purpose does not lead to harm. The benefit is for children at Greenisland 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.
... [more] [less]What your organisation does
We are an active PTA which organises social fundraising events for the families and children of the school. Events in the past have included Summer Fairs, Formal Dances and Table Quiz’s. We also provide support at other school events that are held through the year; such as providing refreshments at P1 open days & induction days; MacMillan Coffee
Mornings & other open days. We work to support the school by targeting our fundraising to raise money for items which will benefit every child & support their education. This helps to bring a shared spirit of co-operation between the parents, teachers & the wider school & encourages the strong community atmosphere within school & the wider community.
