Schools Financial Benchmarking:

Financial Benchmarking allows schools to check how their finances compare with other similar schools. Benchmarking helps schools to plan and to make beneficial changes.

For school budgets, there are 4 main cost areas:

• Staff

• premises (for example, building maintenance)

• occupation (the cost of occupying the school building, for example, energy and water)

• supplies and services (for example, stationery, books and examination fees)

Benchmarking helps schools:

• look at spend in these areas overall, as well as sub-categories of spend

• compare their spend with other similar schools (or academy trusts)

• inform their school development process

Benchmarking helps schools to consider how to use their resources to support high-quality teaching and the best education outcomes for their pupils.

Benchmarking helps schools to connect with other schools to discuss challenges and successes. This can help schools consider whether:

• their resource allocations are working for them

• they can improve outcomes by doing things differently
