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. 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. Purpose 1 is demonstrated through having an active PTA that works in partnership with the school and engages parental support. Purpose 2 is demonstrated through pupils having access to resources, events, activities and links with the local community which are not available through direct school funding. No harm arises from either purpose. The benefit is for children at St. Patrick's Primary School, Hilltown 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.
