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 St Nicholas Primary School Carrickfergus. 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.

What your organisation does
Our organisation is made up of a group of elected parents 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 feedback on events and operations, look for parental support to help at events. Good communication is important and we publish regular newsletters of upcoming
events. Every year we organise a calendar of fundraising activities that include family and children only events including school discos, BBQ at Sports Day, School Fayres and Meal nights. With the school we agree the expenditure of funds in that they will always be used to purchases educational resources or equipment for all the pupils in the school
