At Anago, we spent a lot of time engaging with MAT finance leaders across some of the key sector conferences during the autumn term. Here are some of our takeaways:
Reporting within trusts remains a big challenge: Often, trust finance teams still struggle to easily source the key information they need and translate it into clear, timely reports.
Fragmented systems are still causing issues: Without a single source of truth, finance teams need to manually stitch together disparate data from across their trust, and even within individual schools.
Partnership matters: When trusts review budgeting platforms, they’re looking for a long-term collaborator – not just another transactional supplier.
Sound familiar? At Anago, we’re working with UK trusts to tackle these issues through our MAT-focused budgeting and forecasting platform. Get in touch today.
