Accounting

There are distinct advantages 

in out-sourcing your school 

accounting to 

School Support Ltd. 

Price - We estimate that the cost of School Support preparing your monthly and annual accounts is approximately 50% of the full cost of the school doing it, itself. In addition, you can budget in the knowledge that your full costs are known up-front. 

Continuity and Peace of Mind - Principals, secretaries and treasurers can change and often the person handling the accounting within your school has skills that are not easy to replace should they depart. We have settled accounting teams in each of our offices and School Support has in excess of 11 years school accounting experience. 

Experience and Expertise - School Support currently handles the accounting for in excess of 300 schools. We specialise in school accounting and are aware of changing Ministry and audit requirements. You can rely on us to keep abreast of current public sector accounting standards. 

Quality Control - Because of our involvement as intermediaries, controls within our school clients tend to be tighter resulting in reduced auditor involvement and hence lower audit costs. 

Flexibility - We have a range of accounting formats to meet specific requirements and can provide graphs and charts.
