A Access Group Case Study
Marsh Hill Primary School, a maintained voluntary aided school in the West Midlands, was struggling to produce meaningful financial reports and relied on an outdated, unintuitive finance MIS (Facility CMIS). School Business Manager Sharon Wells led the move to Access Group’s Education Finance and Budgeting software to simplify reporting and modernise their finance processes.
Access Group’s solution delivered easily accessible reports and budget projections for governors, electronic scanning of invoices and delivery notes, and scenario-planning tools used to monitor COVID-19 expenditure — enabling staff to work from home during lockdown and freeing time for strategic projects and pupil-facing activity. The system has reduced paper use, cut time spent on order processing, improved transparency for the governing board and created staff development opportunities.
