Our school asks for "voluntary" contributions and gives a suggested amount. The PTA subsidise 1 trip a year for each class. What has been happening though is that lots of parents don't pay, the PTA makes up the shortfall so that all children get to go (which it can't afford to keep doing).
How does your school manage this? Are school trips made optional so those who don't pay don't go? I would really appreciate your responses as we're trying to come up with a better solution.
btw we're talking of trips that cost £10 or less if that makes a difference
Thanks.
