Welcome to Funding for Independent Schools

BUSINESS INTELLIGENCE FOR BURSARS, HEADS AND GOVERNORS AT INDEPENDENT SCHOOLS IN THE UK

Funding for Independent Schools is the only magazine focused entirely on the strategic, financial and fundraising issues of independent schools in the UK. Each edition is sent to every bursar and every headteacher.

The publication reviews on a termly basis how independent schools can plan for future changes, increase numbers of pupils, cut down on costs, improve managerial efficiencies, find new sources of income and improve current funding streams. There are also three editions of an email newsletter (click on Subscribe to Enews above to register for free), which is produced alternately to the magazine. Many schools subscribe for additional copies of the magazine to distribute to their governing bodies.

Other of our productions... THE INDEPENDENT SCHOOL AWARDS 2012

The Independent School Awards recognise excellence in the strategic and financial management of independent schools in the UK. The second presentation took place on 16 November 2011 at a gala event for 300 people.

We launched the Awards in reaction to the lack of recognition of the achievements of independent schools. The sector is the envy of the world yet is little recognised at home; the Awards aim to change this.   

Here's a link to a brief video about the ISA 2011 event.
