What is the SJF Resources Support Fund?
The SJF Resources Support Fund is to help provide additional income for our school from parents and carers, alumni, friends from the community and further afield. This funding stream is directed at core educational school costs. It is distinct from PTFA fundraising, which is directed strictly towards additional enrichment, equipment and specific capital projects.
School budgets are being increasingly squeezed. Funding for St John Fisher Catholic Primary School has fallen in real terms again this year. Over the past few years, the financial support from the Department for Education has not kept up with the rising costs of running our school.
The target for 2024/25 is £100,000.
What will the funds be used for?
All money raised through the SJF Resources Support Fund will be directed towards essential learning resources such as classroom materials, books, on-line teaching resources, computers and interactive classroom boards.
All funds will go to the St John Fisher School Governor’s Fund, registered charity 1178706.
Registered address: St. John Fisher RC Primary School, Grand Drive, London, SW20 9NA.
As a registered charity, the accounts are independently examined and publicly available via the Charity Commission website.
