Schools Finance Team

The Schools Finance Team offers support in all areas of school finance, including statutory and non-statutory financial support to help with the effective financial management in schools. The service provides support for schools across a range of management and administrative financial functions. The team's knowledge of schools' differing needs enables us to provide a bespoke tailored support service specific to the needs of the school, in an efficient and cost effective way. Statutory items (cost free) provided to maintained schools by the Schools Finance Team:
