Case Study: St Thomas More Catholic School improves finance efficiency with PS Financials

St Thomas More Catholic School - Customer Case Study

St Thomas More Catholic School, a growing Multi Academy Trust in Tyne and Wear, needed to replace Sage 200 with a more modern financial management system that could handle consolidation, central chart of accounts, VAT reporting, and purchasing more reliably. PS Financials was chosen after a competitive selection process because it could address the school’s specific issues and was backed by strong recommendations from other academies, along with PS Financials’ education-sector expertise.

PS Financials implemented its Financial Management Solution and support services, helping St Thomas More streamline finance processes, improve reporting, and reduce manual work. The impact was significant: VAT 126 reporting dropped from weeks and up to 20 man-hours to around two hours, the finance team became much more efficient, and the school moved toward paperless working while consolidating its cloud services with PS Financials.
