My children have now left our local state secondary. They did well there and I was involved in the PTA. I would be happy to be contacted by the school/current PTA to see if I could make donations occasionally (this hasn't happened yet, they are wondering whether to). School budgets are so tight nowadays, and (selfishly in terms of house prices etc!) it's better for me to have a good local secondary school with good facilities on my doorstep than a rundown school. Other ex-parents I've mentioned it to are horrified at the idea and feel they've put school all behind them now (even if they could afford to make small donations). Any thoughts welcome.

To think that ex-parents of a school should help fundraise?
