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 Groggan 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
The primary aim of our organisation is to raise funds for the school, support the teaching staff and develop relationships between parents, pupils and staff. Our organisation is made up of a group of elected mums, dads and staff who willingly give up their time and expertise. As a group we strive to ensure that all parents and staff are actively
involved in our operation. Each year we organise a calendar of fund raising activities and these include family and children only events example of these last year were the School BBQ. In conjunction with the Principal's wish list 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.
