PARENTS' ASSOCIATION (TPA)

The Tooting Parents Association (TPA) is the parent-teacher association for Tooting Primary School.  Founded when the school opened in 2013, the TPA is a registered charity, number 1174841,  that supports the school and promotes friendship.

The TPA has raised in excess of £80,000 for the school and this money has helped enrich the ways in which our children learn and play.  The playgrounds have play equipment, including a very popular climbing wall, friendship bench, greenery and the lower hall has a stage thanks to the generosity of parents.  The TPA also subsidises many of the trips children go on and workshops they take part in, and helped stock the new Music Room with percussion instruments.

If you have a child at Tooting Primary School, you are already a member of the TPA. You don't have wait to be invited, or join the committee.

Please look out for our regular newsletter updates, as well as event advertising through parent emails, Facebook, the class rep WhatsApp groups and the playground notice boards.
