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 Anahilt 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 Anahilt 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 and we actively volunteer for the school on a regular basis, such as helping at sports day, P1 Breakfast, and P7 Leavers Party. We also organise several fundraising events throughout the school year including Christmas Fair, school discos,
movie nights, shopping parties and break the rules day. We also work with the local council to organise the christmas light switch on and refreshments are available in the school, this is open to the whole community. Our fundraising has allowed to school to purchase new play equipment, computers and learning resources which the whole school have benefited from. We also contribute towards school trips, sports coaching and after school clubs.
