Dear Parent/Carer

We are about to launch the next phase of our fundraising campaign, Building a Brighter Future.  The money raised in the first phase has enabled us to transform the AHS Science facilities and now we are looking to complete that programme through refurbishing the final laboratory and then moving on to other school projects.

Our approach has always been to raise money for improvements that are over and above what can be afforded from our (extremely tight) government funding; we don't want to use money raised from parents to pay for normal running costs.  The generous fundraising by the Aylesbury High School Association (AHSA) is also put towards enhancing the school rather than basic needs.

We want to target our campaign so that it improves the areas of the school that students, parents and staff believe would benefit most from development, so this questionnaire is to help us shape the campaign.

The survey is anonymous so that you can be totally honest on the more sensitive questions.  We are also interested in knowing if you might be able to offer your services to help with fundraising - there is an e-mail address for giving us your contact details at the end of the survey.

Thank you for completing this survey and, as always, for your support. We would be grateful for responses by Thursday 11 February.

Yours sincerely

Arfan Chaudhry, Chair of Governors
