Schools Financial Services

The Schools Finance Team offers a wide range of professional support services to assist schools in managing their budgets. Provided by our experienced Finance Officers, they enable you to access our breadth of skills and knowledge to suit your needs.

The team has a reputation throughout Lancashire for high quality support, advice, and training. We take pride in our ability to build strong working relationships helping to ensure our work with you delivers improved financial management throughout the school.

This ensures resources are spent wisely and properly allowing you to provide high-quality teaching and learning and so raise standards and attainment for all pupils.

Schools Financial Services launched a new SLA in April 2022, including new services & new packages, and all schools were asked what services you required from 1st April 2022 onwards. Following this, schools have signed up to a rolling 12 month contract which does not require any further action unless school wishes to change their level of buy-back. Please see the links below for further details, and if you would like any further help or clarification, including prices, please speak to your Finance Officer. If you wish to make any changes to your SLA, please contact your Finance Officer or schoolsfinancesla@lancashire.gov.uk .
