Appeal for Voluntary Contribution
Firstly, many thanks for all your time and support in contributing to the children’s education and the community of Great Berry.
As you are all aware, through us and the coverage in the press, educational funding is a key issue. At Great Berry, we have worked hard to minimise our costs. But to maintain our high standards of a school community; unfortunately, like many schools, we now find ourselves in a position where we must look for additional external funding.
To address this, at the last Local Governing Board meeting, it was agreed that moving forward we would ask parents/carers to make a voluntary contribution of £30 per term, with an option to contribute more or less, as you are able. This will help to support funding core functions of the school and to maintain our high standards of education and commitment to the children.
Payment Options
(Use any of the following as per your preference & convenience)
1) Termly Voluntary Contribution (Suggested £30 per term)
2) One-time Voluntary Contribution
3) Bank Standing Order
Set up a termly standing order (recurring every 4 months) to the School's bank account for £30 (or any other amount). This would save us payment of the transaction processing fee.
