We realise that budgets are tight and that sometimes it’s difficult to justify taking a day out; however, keeping up-to-date with policy and investing in continued learning is an important part of the SBM role – you need to be informed to innovate and implement cost-effective operational strategies in-school. This is what EdExec LIVE d elivers and it’s why we ensure that it’s accessible to all schools.

Look who’s talking…
A collaborative force to be reckoned In this session Louise Hatswell, finance director and business manager across three schools and chair/founder of SYSBL, considers how isolated schools – and SBMs – can be and explores the potential for collaboration, shares South Yorkshire School Business Leadership (SYSBL) group’s achievements and provides valuable advice on setting up – and managing – a SBM group.
Overcoming financial pressures and budgetary uncertainty Paul Leigh, chief financial officer at Focus Trust, will cast a positive spotlight on school finances – looking at things differently and reconsidering priorities and choices. As well as exploring alternative resources at your disposal such as local businesses. This session is about providing alternatives.
Schools’ Buying Strategy The Department for Education’s Schools Commercial Team will be hosting a workshop at EdExec Live 2018 in Manchester, to hear the views of schools and help shape their products and services to better meet schools’ needs. Come with your questions, your suggestions and your honest feedback.
Demonstrating impact and gaining recognition as an SBM Laura Williams, education business and operations consultant at LJ Business Consultancy Ltd., will be demonstrating the ways in which you add value to your school and how you can evidence your impact. This session is for SBMs who want to play a pivotal role in the strategic management – and development – of their school and are looking for ways to gain recognition as a business partner.

Four reasons EdExec LIVE is a VfM day-away from the desk
3. Professional resources: We’re acutely aware that schools are required to do more for less; so BFSI (Budget-focused school improvement) is core to our agenda! EdExec LIVE delivers tangible ideas and examples of how to make school funding go further and ensure continued improvement. Sessions are developed with take-home points built-in to ensure you bring significant learning back-to-school.
4. Professional development: School business managers keep the education wheel turning; pivotal to this is ensuring that you are up-to-date and have the know how to play a strategic role in determining the direction that your school takes and ensuring that it’s the right one. EdExec LIVE is an opportunity to build on your knowledge and your skills and ensure you have all you need to support your school through uncertainty.
