Case Study: Manor Hall Academy Trust achieves streamlined MAT financial management with IRIS Financials

Manor Hall Academy Trust - Customer Case Study

Manor Hall Academy Trust, a five-school special school multi academy trust in Staffordshire, needed a better financial management solution after acquiring two additional academies. Their previous accounting system failed to deliver the promised functionality and quickly became difficult to rely on for MAT-level operations, prompting the trust to look for a more suitable alternative. IRIS Software Group’s IRIS Financials was identified as the replacement.

IRIS Software Group implemented IRIS Financials to give Manor Hall Academy Trust real-time consolidation across schools, workflow controls for purchasing, full drill-down on invoices, trust-wide payment runs, and automatic bank reconciliation. The transition was described as smooth, with the trust gaining a system better suited to MAT requirements and future growth, including the addition of another school.
