Charging & Remission
Charging & Remission
The policy of the Governors of St Wilfrid’s Church of England Primary Academy concerning charges for academy activities is as follows.
Voluntary contributions will be sought to support activities taking place during academy time. For activities taking place mainly outside of academy time, a charge representing the total cost will be levied.
It has always been the practice in St Wilfrid’s Church of England Primary Academy to deal sensitively and compassionately with those in genuine financial difficulty so that no child should be disadvantaged.
We shall continue to use discretion with regard to remission of charges, having regard to individual circumstances. The statutory remission for pupils whose parents receive universal credits will apply for all activities wholly in school time.
From time to time children will also be asked to volunteer to raise funds, both for academy and charitable purposes.
