Supporting Thomas Tallis School – Making a donation
Thomas Tallis School welcomes support from parents, friends and the community in whatever form. We are a fully inclusive community comprehensive school, and we work hard to offer a rich experience to all our students, whatever their background.
Parents often ask if they can make a financial donation to help the school – and the answer is YES!

How are donations used?
Donations from friends and parents are put to very good use in supporting a wide variety of enrichment activities, reward trips for excellent attendance and behaviour, and sometimes for buying the extras which the school budget – in these difficult times, is not able to afford.
This year we are collecting funds to support a refresh of our Library, with new books and equipment, and also to provide funds for our Tate Exchange garden and contemporary art gallery. Our target for the year is £25,000.
However, we are currently focusing our efforts on increasing IT provisions for all students following the current 'On-line Learning' our students find ourselves facing. Therefore if you would like to specifically support this cause with a financial donation then please see our PTFA TECH for TALLIS donation button further down this page.
All donations to the school are collected via our PTFA which is a registered charity no. 1178258
The PTFA then pass on the funds to the school
They are also able to collect Gift Aid which turns any donations from UK Tax payers into a further 25% meaning your generous donations go even further!
Once received, the funds raised go into a specific School Fund, which is managed separately from the school main budget, and is overseen by the Governing Body.

TALLIS PTFA - Specific Current fundraising Campaigns

During this strange time, many of our students are unable to access their online learning due to limited or no access to IT provisions. The PTFA (Parent, Teacher and Friends Association) are doing what we can to help those who do not qualify for Department of Education devices.
So far your kind and generous donations have been used to purchase 27 new laptops last year and are helping to purchase a further 20+ devices in January. The 'Donate a Device' side of the campaign has also seen 25+ 2nd hand laptops find new homes with Tallis students and we are still welcoming good working order devices that will continue to be formatted to school specifications and passed on to students as soon as we can. |
