Central financial management

A clear and consistent approach to financial management, ensuring consistency, efficiency, compliance and supporting effective decision making

Budgetary control happens WITHIN our schools, allowing schools to allocate resources appropriately. The trust serves nursery through to 16-19 and can leverage the vast experience of education budgets, and will support the school throughout the process.

Security

In a strong trust framework of financial procedures and processes, you get security from the group. With high standards of controls, the ability to strategically plan together for the harder times and reassurance. If staff leave or have periods of absence, cover is possible. We develop people and create strong teams that we invest in and train.
