This year, your active participation in the Financial Survey for Schools (FSS) has been instrumental in not only contributing to valuable benchmarks but also in played a crucial role in shaping the educational finance landscape. To each school that participated, thank you for your commitment to financial excellence. Your dedication fuels our mission to empower educational institutions for sustained success.
For those yet to embark on the survey journey, it’s not too late! Your unique perspective is vital in creating a comprehensive understanding of the financial dynamics within the education sector. The survey for the 2022Â school-year data remains open until April 2024, and we welcome your input.
We’re excited to cap off the year with a groundbreaking development—the launch of the Somerset Key Indicator (SKI) Scenario Builder™. This powerful tool will revolutionise financial planning for schools, and we can’t wait for you to experience its potential.
