Annual Fund 2013 - 2014 Dancing in the Rain Just because Pate’s is an Outstanding School doesn’t mean we’re immune to revenue funding challenges. Government funding is down £110k next year and we have lost a further £155k from commercial partners and the Pate’s Foundation (which was so generous in recent years helping fund our new refectory). In total that reduces our income next year by about £265k. We will work hard to manage this ensuring that the core purpose of the school will not be affected. In our latest Ofsted Inspection (2013), we were categorised as “Outstanding” in all areas. The report comments ….. “The academy pays considerable attention to the wider personal development of students and the range of opportunities beyond the formal curriculum is exceptional.” We are determined that these opportunities do not lessen in any way through lack of resources. We know the storm is upon us; we can either sit and ride it out or we can seek your support and start Dancing in the Rain. With fantastic governor backing we have decided on the latter. We have always looked to our parents and alumni to help us provide the very best educational experience for our students. We are now in even greater need for our community to step up, dig deep, join those who are already supporting us and enable us to not only put up the umbrella but also to put on our dancing shoes. The Annual Fund 2013 – 2014, ‘Dancing in the Rain’, is vital to provide the extras that otherwise will be met with a sharp intake of breath and a shaking of the head. Please support us. Your children are worth every penny!

TAS supports remote African schools on a transparent and sustainable basis. Trusts for African Schools was set up as a UK charity in 2006 to improve the quality of educaiton in some of the poorest schools in Africa. 100% of all public donations are applied to specific projects. For each school we support we set up a local trust to sit alongside it. The trust raises funds, injects ideas and provides transparency and accountability on a sustainable basis. It does not own or manage anything nor does it have any contractual responsibilities to the school. It is there solely to support the school. Trustees come from the school and the community but also include business and professional people from further afield. They are the ‘Champions’ of the school. No-one is paid anything for being a trustee. We now have eleven school trusts established, (supporting over 3000 children) all in very remote areas, mainly in Kenya. In 2012 we distributed around £100,000 directly to school trusts for projects they prioritised. These included new and refurbished classrooms, science labs, additional teachers, computers, out of school hours teaching, solar power, sports activities and equipment, educational trips and incentives for teachers. Trusts are encouraged to think creatively and to try out new ideas for improving the quality of education. Lessons learned are disseminated via the website and the network of trustees. The website is also the main tool for transparency. Each school trust has its own micro-site on the TAS website where all minutes of meetings, details of proposals for funding, transfers of funds etc are accessible. Minutes of TAS trustee meetings, funding decisions etc are all available on the website along with full details of how to set up and operate a local school trust.
