The School Fund

Christ's School Needs You!

We strive to ensure that the school continues to be a welcoming, safe and modern environment for our students; an inspiring space that is conducive to their learning and well-being. However, the maintenance of the school is very expensive and, because the school is a Voluntary-Aided school, the responsibility for this upkeep lies with the school's Governing Board, not the local authority.

In addition, the current cost of living crisis has meant a squeeze on state funding and cuts to education grants, which is having a huge impact on all schools' ability to ensure a learning environment that is fit-for-purpose. Like all schools, Christ’s School needs parental support more than ever to ensure that our students benefit from a first class learning environment.

In recent years we have relied upon the generosity of parents making regular contributions to our School Fund. These funds have made it possible for the school to, amongst others:  undertake the re-roofing of the main school building (jointly with the Diocese); procure a new minibus; buy new picnic benches for use by students at break and lunch times; create a new long jump facility;  install theatre-quality lighting and sound in all our main hall spaces and completely refurbish the toilet facilities in the main block. 

To be able to continue to enhance our facilities, create and procure learning and wellbeing resources for our students, we ask all our families who are able to, to make a financial donation to the school. We will gratefully receive all donations, however big or small. Regular and larger donations enable us to make longer term, more ambitious plans whilst smaller, one-off donations help with one-off projects for the school.

Our School Fund is a registered charity and donating is easy. Simply scan the QR code below or follow this link to get started. Thank you!
