Specialist accountants for academies, schools and the education sector

Running an education setting comes with its own unique pressures, from tight budgets to ever-evolving regulations. That’s where we come in.

Our education sector specialists have extensive experience supporting independent schools, nurseries and early years settings, as well as Academies and multi-academy trusts (MATs). We understand how the sector works – and the challenges you face day to day.

A solution built around you

No two education providers are the same, so we don’t offer a one-size-fits-all approach. Instead, we’ll take the time to understand your needs and tailor our support accordingly, whether you’re looking for help with compliance, strategic advice or both.

We offer a wide range of compliance and advisory services including:

External audit and regulatory assurance
Statutory accounts preparation (in accordance with the Academies Accounts Direction (AAD) and the Charities Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP))
Academies Accounts Returns
Teachers’ pension end of year certificates
Internal scrutiny reviews
Budget forecast returns
Tax planning and advice including Gift Aid
Grant audit and compliance support

All the support you need – when you need it

You’ll have a dedicated client manager who really gets to know you and your organisation – someone you can easily reach by phone or email whenever you need them. They’re backed by a wider team of education sector experts, so there’s always someone available to help.

As part of the wider Moore UK network, we can also connect you with specialist expertise if needed. So as your organisation evolves, you can be confident we’ve got the support you need.

Supporting your budget

We understand how important it is to keep costs low. That’s why we keep our fees transparent and competitive, delivering real value without compromising on quality.

Keeping you informed

Staying up to date is vital. That’s why we provide regular email bulletins with practical insights, updates and guidance, helping you stay one step ahead.
