Updated academies chart of accounts

The Department for Education has updated the academies chart of accounts for use in the academic year 2020/21. This incorporates a small number of necessary changes to the previous chart of accounts released in May 2019. The specific changes are detailed in the guidance which is included on the webpage.

The chart of accounts is the standard for financial data structure of the Department for Education, designed to underpin the academies accounts return and budget forecast returns.

Academy trusts who have already adopted the chart of accounts should ensure they update their own chart of accounts with effect from 1st September 2020 to reflect the changes. Other trusts are able to adopt the chart of accounts for the first time in 2020/21 should they wish, and to work with their software suppliers to do so.

Adopting the chart of accounts is not mandatory, however academy trusts who choose to adopt the standard will potentially benefit from future automated data transfer tools for financial returns.

An afternoon at Bombay Sapphire Distillery! 🍸 🍹

Our Managing Director Tracy Jenkins, Director Michaela Johns, Associate Director Nick Whitemore, and Business Adviser Brendon Reis had the pleasure of visiting the Bombay Sapphire Distillery for an exclusive gin tasting experience with some guests.

The afternoon began at the Turbine Bar, where everyone crafted their own complimentary gin and tonic using the self-serve gin dispensers. The tour continued with an exploration of the ten exotic botanicals in the Glasshouses and an immersive experience in the Botanical Dry Room.

The highlight of the day was the Gin Tasting Masterclass, where guests learned to make three exquisite cocktails while enjoying some grazing platters.

A huge thank you to the incredible team at Bombay Sapphire for hosting such a fantastic afternoon! 🌿✨
