Transcription de la présentation

  1. Ensuring financial oversight William Simmonds FRSA HonFCoT Freeman Company of Educators

  2. Accountability • Accountability • Public Accounts Committee Report • Securing value for money • Local Authority and EFA responsibility for financial oversight • Is there weakness in the system? • Local Authorities cutting back • National Audit Office survey – reduced internal audit coverage of schools

  3. Leasing • Recent leasing difficulties of some schools • Mainly supplier scams • Finance or Operating lease • NASBM lease checker – www.nasbm.co.uk • Lack of understanding of lease documentation • Deal or no deal?

  4. Fraud in Schools • Does it occur? • Why and how does this happen? • Governing Bodies lack of financial expertise? • 25% of Local Authorities thought so, more so in the Primary sector • Lack of an accountability framework? • Lack of spontaneous checks?

  5. Responsible Officer role • Should be a Governor but not the Chairman • Provide an ongoing independent oversight of financial affairs • Financial responsibilities of the Governing Body are being properly discharged • Resources are managed in an efficient, economical and effective manner • Sound systems of internal financial control are being maintained • Financial considerations are fully taken into account in reaching decisions

  6. Whose responsibility is it? • It is not mine! • The School Business Manager will become paramount as budgets reduce. • The SBM should be an integral part of the Leadership Team, as budgets reduce • Governors should expect the SBM to raise more money through sponsorship and available grants • Governors should encourage collaboration in purchasing with other schools

  7. SGOSS Survey 2012 • 96% of respondents believe that there is a demonstrable link between the effectiveness of the governing body and pupil performance • Good governing bodies make a material contribution to the performance of their schools ………………………………………………………………....... • It is absolutely clear to me that the most important decision-making group in any school is the governing body. We need to ensure that governing bodies have the best possible people, representing a range of different groups and with the right mix of skills. Lord Hill
