PTFA (Parents, Teachers, Friends Association)

The role of the PTFA in our school

Please see the PTFA Information sheet for more detail about the PTFA. 

Please direct any queries about the PTFA to this email address: PTA@bsm.bwmat.org 

We have a programme of events throughout the year that raises funds to ensure all our children benefit. All these are designed to be fun and offer something for everyone, such as cake sales, pre-loved uniform sales, school discos, quiz nights and more. 

It is the fantastic contribution of our parents that make all this happen. PTFA committee members are usually made up from the class reps who take responsibility for keeping their year groups informed. Reps remain for at least a year (many do so for longer). The PTFA meets twice termly along with anyone else who wants to come along regularly or now and then. We keep in touch via email and make sure things happen with the support of the wider network of PTFA volunteers who pitch in as much or as little as they can.

If you think you might like to join us, please speak to your class rep or email the PTFA directly. The PTFA will help you make friends and get to know the ins and outs of the school. Also, your children will think it’s great that you know the non-uniform date in advance and it’s all in a great cause.
