Sponsorship

Why do we seek external sponsorship?

Often schools must think of ways to help boost their funding in order too enhance learning opportunities and environment. Currently many schools are following the time-honoured tradition of running activities, fairs and fetes with the support of “PTA or Friends of “types of association in order to gather their local community to raise money.

Whilst this style of raising funds is a tried and tested one, it often does not bring in the revenue schools need to facilitate large projects or events.

There are many ways external organisations can get involved in supporting our school, some examples are:

 

· Sponsorship of our sports teams-we are looking for companies to replace our school’s sports team kits with their company logo’s (£2,500)

· Sponsorship of the School’s artist- we are looking for funding to continue engaging an artist in residence one day a week, to support our pupils with their creativity (£12,000)

· Sponsorship of drama and music productions-we would like to be able to continue providing free music lessons to pupils (£17,000)

· Sponsorship to upgrade our current IT resources to enable us to purchase items such as laptops for every student and charging trolleys, 30 I pads, 30 virtual reality devices, green screen kit….(£150,000)

· Sponsorship to develop our outdoor play provision for our pupils in reception (£20,000)

 

Currently as a school we are not in a position to finance the above projects due to funding cutbacks and have a number of other different projects that could be taken up by any company offering financial support. For further information or to discuss further, please contact Pravina Patel (School Business Manager).
