Financial management
To improve value for money, schools need the skills and resources to make the right decisions about the allocation of resources, supported by better information, planning and management, and better challenge and support. This section includes access to self evaluation through FMSiS, appropriate training to build skills, information on effective financial reporting and tools such as benchmarking to challenge existing resource use.
Sharing guidance and good practice
The sections in this area aim to signpost you to relevant, practical advice and guidance for schools. Schools should also contact their local authority to discuss the services and support they can offer, which will be tailored to local needs and priorities.
