Our approach is to work with charitable donors to secure new and sustainable sources of funding for equipment, resources and activities to meet needs as above.
The Foundation Trustees will meet regularly to discuss and debate options for use of any donations raised and agree on measured outcomes of activity.

Other Trustees are past pupils or other community representatives.
