School Income Guide

The scheme is not available for:

  • Items for resale by the school e.g. sweatshirts.
  • Tuck shop purchases / vending machine rentals.
  • Leisure trips / holidays.
  • Pupil purchases which are not required for use in the classroom for at least one session per week. This effectively precludes computer purchases.
  • Items to be given to pupils e.g. ties, scarves, sports wear. 
  • Items that will not become the property of the Local Authority or which the school is not prepared to certify are essential to a pupil's education.
  • Purchase of equipment for staff.

If you require any information concerning VAT please contact VatEnquiries@shropshire.gov.uk .

If the donation / pupil purchase is to be paid directly into the council’s bank account records should be completed and retained by the school for a period of six years.
