Mission Statement
Reading School is a state secondary school and we have to fundraise for those aspects of our work that are not covered by our Department for Education funding. Our DfE funding covers the core cost of delivering the national curriculum, including salaries, teaching resources, lighting, heating and some basic maintenance. It does not cover the cost of major upgrades to school facilities, although we are able to apply for capital funds when these are available. DfE funding is not provided for the maintenance and conservation of our Grade II listed buildings which form the central part of the school buildings. It also does not cover the cost of our essential co-curricular programme of lunchtime and after school activities, which enables pupils to expand their range of skills and knowledge outside the classroom. All your donations, no matter what size, are invaluable.
About This Cause
As an Academy, Reading School is an exempt charity under schedule 2 of the Charities Act 1993. We are also recognised as charitable by HM Customs and Revenue (HMRC Reference XT35863) and can reclaim Gift Aid on donations made by a UK taxpayer, provided the donor has paid an amount of Income Tax and / or Capital Gains Tax for the tax year in which the gift was made that is at least equal to the amount of tax that all the charities s/he has supported will reclaim for the same period.
