CLICK BELOW TO DONATE TO THE TRINITY PRIMARY SCHOOL EDUCATION FUND

Like so many UK Primary Schools, Trinity is facing an increasingly difficult funding challenge. We are therefore asking parents and carers to consider making a regular monthly donation to the Trinity Primary School Education Fund.

Who manages the fund and decides what the money is spent on?

This fund will be managed by the School Governors (voted for), the FOTS Treasurer and the Headteacher and will be used on essentials, such as equipment. The fund will be used when there is a specific need and when there are sufficient funds to support that need.  The school's Senior Leadership Team will make proposals to be approved / refused by the Governors, FOTS Treasurer and Headteacher.

The School Fund has previously contributed to the acquisition of over £10,000 worth of Chromebooks, meaning ALL pupils have access to technology at school.

How much?

We are really aware of the current financial situation, but any contribution, however big or small, would make a real difference.

Why is this needed?

Trinity, along with the majority of state funded Primary Schools, have found it necessary to set up a School Fund to supplement state funding.  Our school leadership team have done everything possible to mitigate the effects of year-on-year reductions, but without this fund we cannot continue to deliver the same quality of education.

What about FOTS?

FOTS organises various fundraising activities throughout the year and this is a fantastic support, however FOTS is run by volunteers and the amount raised each year fluctuates, subject to what events are organised. Money raised from FOTS activities (eg weekly cake sales, Summer Ball, Halloween disco etc) tends to be allocated to special projects that are typically outside of the school's day-to-day requirements.

How will I be informed about what the money is spent on?

Any time the school fund is authorised to be used, anyone contributing to this fund will be advised about the amount and what the money is being spent on. 

If you have any further queries, please contact the school office.  If you feel able to make a monthly donation, please click on the link at the top of this page.

Thank you for your support.
