CHARGING AND REMISSIONS POLICY (E.R.A. 1988)

Oughtibridge School has traditionally arranged a wide programme of educational visits and activities to provide valuable first hand experience for children. These activities take place both in and out of school time.

The Governors have adopted the Local Authority’s Charging and Remission Policy, a full copy of which will be made available on request to the Headteacher.

Briefly the policy is outlined below: -

1. The school will not charge for activities in school time, except to cover the costs of residential visits.
2. Parents can be charged for activities, which take place wholly out of school time.
3. Parents who wish to keep the finished product of a cooking or craft activity can be charged the cost of the raw materials.
4. Parents will be charged for any damage done to school property where this is the consequence of misbehaviour.
5. The School will seek voluntary contributions from parents and others to meet the cost of activities taking place in school time. e.g. transport costs.
6. Parents in receipt of Income Support are entitled to financial support towards any charges for residential visits.
7. No child will be excluded from any school time activity due to inability to pay.

The parents of Oughtibridge School children have provided wonderful support and encouragement for our programme of visits and activities. The viability of future programmes depends on continued support whenever financially possible.
