Charging Policy


 - Any charges made by the school must meet the requirements of the Education Reform Act 1988. The governors endorse the guiding principles contained in the Act, in particular that no child should have access to the curriculum limited by charges.  


 - Our aim is to make a broad programme of trips and activities accessible to as many students as possible. Also to establish and maintain a fair and coherent system of charges within the constraints of the school budget. The school, as a matter of policy, significantly subsides all trips and visits.  


 - Charges will not be made for any activities which form part of a prescribed examination syllabus, or are in fulfilment of National Curriculum requirements.
 


 - In cases where charges are to be levied parents must be advised in advance and monies collected prior to the activity. Requests for help from parents on income support or family credit will be considered and assistance provided within the limits of the school’s budget or Trust Fund. Complete confidence will be observed in all such matters.  Any insurance costs will be included in charges for trips or activities.
