We are lucky to have a strong PTA at the school. Although a number of events each year are run with the primary aim of fund raising the association exists to achieve more than that.
Central to our PTA is a commitment to building strong links between the school and the families whose boys attend the school. The PTA committee serves as a useful sounding board for the Headteacher and other staff in the school.
Major fund raising events in the last academic year included a Christmas Bazaar and a Summer Fete as well as a quiz night and wine tasting evening. This year we also enjoyed a Summer Ball at the Spa Hotel.
Most recently the PTA became the school’s major sponsor in its application to become a specialist humanities school. The PTA provided £35 000 towards that project. Although the PTA supports a number of smaller projects within each school it is currently focussing its energy on raising funds to support the installation of air conditioning units into a number of classrooms, ICT suites and the school library.
