Overview

School fees pay for education. It is thus up to parents and other stakeholders of Roedean to assist the school in renewing and upgrading the school facilities, to ensure that they remain in keeping with the demands of school life.

The PTA Executive Committee identifies the out-of-budget improvements required in any financial year.
