Proud of the team and delighted to be able to share the outcome of our most recent inspection of King Offa Primary Academy. Some lovely comments!

We went to Iceland earlier this year and didn’t see them, so happy the girls got to see the brilliant show tonight at home!

Amazing #aurora this evening in #Hastings

@miconm @accidentalSBM Yes I thought I was over counting which is why I doubted it was 7/12ths rather than full year funding…..will be interesting to see how all the different grants play out in the 25/26 funding formula but we’ll take the good news for this year as budgets were feeling tight!

[A @AlexGraham_]

@miconm Not ideal timing but seems in line with assumptions we’d made that >4% would be funded so additional funding should match extra cost overall for us (pending knock on impact). At least they’ve given clarity on funding by school so we can understand the impact!

[A @AlexGraham_]

Thanks to @imp_software again for providing the tools to work out changes quickly….overall funding appears aligned to our budget assumptions but sure they’ll be winners and losers though and could have huge knock on impact for support staff so hope future funding reflects that…

@miconm @accidentalSBM Makes it so hard to plan properly. Assumptions for 24/25 are even harder to predict.
Glad we implemented @imp_software to help work through different scenarios.
I expect some winners and losers from a grant as impact of pay award will depend on split of teacher/ support staff.

[A @AlexGraham_]

@miconm What’s everyone’s thoughts on budget assumptions? #sbltwitter

Do we predict that anything agreed above an ‘average’ 4% will be funded through an additional grant for now?

Could you positively impact 3000 children’s lives by providing them with the very best learning environments?

Aurora Academies Trust is looking for its first Director of Estates.

@miconm Not seen an email either🤷🏼‍♀️. It clashes with other meetings so won’t be able to join. I’m sure #sbltwitter can summarise the points made on here though, interesting to hear what they say!

I wonder what school processes would look like if we did the same visual.
#paperless helps but doesn’t automatically reduce duplication or help workload.
Key is streamlining the process 1st:
•Is it necessary?
•Have we got the #data already?
•Review/ redesign the process

@sbm_jo 😡 I really don’t know how these people sleep at night…also questions the controls they had in place to check!

@imp_software It was really quick to compare the updated teacher and proposed support staff pay awards using IMP.

If only it was as easy to work out how to fund it £££!📈💷💷
