Education
Supporting schools and academies to deliver excellence in education
In an increasingly diverse and fast-paced world, academies and multi-academy trusts face constant pressures from funding, evolving regulations and ever-changing financial reporting requirements – all while trying to provide the highest possible standard of education. We guide you through the complex and frequently shifting standards presented by the Education and Skills Funding Agency (ESFA).
Our specialist education team keeps you updated on the latest financial and reporting issues affecting the sector, allowing you to focus on creating a brighter future for your students.
Supporting academy schools in Essex since 2010
With over a decade of experience working closely with academies and trusts, we understand the unique financial and operational challenges faced across the education sector.
Our team brings deep knowledge of the Academies Financial Handbook, Accounts Direction, and wider charity accounting and reporting requirements. More importantly, we understand how these frameworks apply in practice — and how to support you in meeting them without losing sight of your wider strategic goals.
By combining sector insight with a collaborative, advisory-led approach, we help ensure your finances remain compliant, transparent and aligned with your long-term vision.
