• Are you struggling to coordinate the budget-setting process across your Trust?
• Not sure that all schools in the Trust are using the same budgeting assumptions?
• Do you have a robust checklist covering the key checks and processes needed to effectively set a budget?
• Are budget timeframes cemented and communicated clearly?
Budgeting season can be a challenging time for MAT CFOs. With so many assumptions to apply and scenarios to run across multiple schools that span multiple LAs, it’s easy to see how key budgeting activities get missed. Compound this with the use of multiple systems and spreadsheets and data soon becomes inaccurate, inconsistent, untrustworthy and your workload significant.
That’s why we’re discussing our top budgeting season tips, to help you streamline your budgeting process and achieve a cohesive approach across your schools.
We’ll also be providing access and an overview of our free interactive budgeting checklist that you can use to ensure the bases across all of your schools are covered this budgeting season.
Please note: This recording is exclusively for non-IMP users only as budgeting season looks very different if you’re using IMP Software.
