2. Information: schools financial health checks – could your school help other schools?

As part of the initiative to help schools improve their financial management and efficiency, we’re developing a directory of organisations that can provide financial health checks for schools.

We’re aiming to publish the schools financial health checks supplier directory over the summer. This will include clear advice to schools on how to select the supplier that will best meet their needs and provide value for money.

We know that schools are keen to work with suitable multi-academy trusts with a strong track record of good financial management who have the capacity and capability to deliver these financial health checks.

If you think your trust could provide this service, please email schools financial health and efficiency for further information and a supplier registration form.
