Founded in 1980, the Fyling Hall PTA is run by a committee which currently consists of twelve parents and six teachers.   Their self-designed brief is to support the Headmaster and Governing Body by whatever means necessary. 

Over the years, amid the discos, dinners and duck races - and balls, cake stalls and coffee mornings - this support has included the borrowing of a lorry to transport an entire wooden building from the far side of the county to the school grounds.  More recently, PTA members were found up ladders with paintbrushes during the refurbishment of the Sixth Form Common Room, and driving support vehicles with food for horses and riders during the 120-mile sponsored trek to Cumbria.

And they do not only raise money for the school.  Together with the students, the PTA chooses and supports a different charity each year.
