About The FOA
What is the FOA
The Friends of Ashley (FOA) is the Parent Teacher Association at Ashley C of E Primary School, composed of parents, teachers and staff on a voluntary basis. The aim of the FOA is to enrich the school community through fundraising events held throughout the school year.
Every parent, teacher and staff member is automatically a Friend of Ashley purely by being part of the school and everyone is welcome to get involved as much or as little as they want.
The FOA is led by a small, annually elected team made up of the Chair, Secretary, Treasurer and Comms.

What does the FOA aim to achieve?
Working with the school to establish priorities for fundraising and decide how funds will be spent, we aim to:

• Raise funds to support the school and provide extra resources, facilities and equipment to complement and enhance the enjoyment and learning experiences of our children
