  1. The Future of School Business Managers Trevor Summerson FRIDAY 6 DECEMBER 13‏ SOUTHWARK SCHOOL BUSINESS MANAGERS CONFERENCE

  2. Two most important components of an effective education sector are Quality of teaching and learning most important factor in improving outcomes; Great Leadership at a school level is a key enabling factor

  3. Weak management of finances and weak academic performance often go hand in hand National Audit Office However…….

  4. Since 2002 the National College… • has trained over 11500 SBMs – over 2500 have undertaken the College’s Diploma in School Business Management; • Around 80% of those candidates who complete the Diploma programme are full members of their school’s senior leadership team; • Qualitative and quantitative evaluation regularly shows that trained school business managers save resources and are much more adept at levering additional funds from other sources .

  5. How many professions can claim to: • Save up to 1/3rd of head teachers time • Save a minimum of 5% of their school’s resources; and, • Make a real contribution to helping school to improve outcomes.

  6. Every truth passes through three stages before it is recognized. In the first, it is ridiculed. In the second, it is opposed. In the third, it is regarded as self evident..

  7. I have become so used to accepting that my job is viewed by everyone except me as painfully dull that I have almost come to believe it SBM 2010 School Financial Management

  8. What are the issues Still significant waste in the sector Still far too many heads do not fully exploit the skills of their SBM Far too many schools still do not have access to an appropriately skilled SBM Some SBMs see training as a once only experience Many SBMs still not on the Senior Leadership Team of the school

  9. What is changing ? • Expectations Deficit • Increasing Autonomy • School Led Approach

  10. W We should not let our fears hold us back from pursuing our hopes John F Kennedy

  11. My personal vision • A confident well developed qualified profession: • with a clear career progression ladder; • Opportunities to update learning; • respected and valued by all in schools for the contribution they make. • School Business Managers and Directors helping to shape the future of school leadership; • Head teachers able to focus on leading learning and teaching; • Improvements in resource management within schools leading to an increased proportion of available funds being spent of teaching and leadership • More prospective head teachers coming through.

  12. A hundred years from now it will not matter what my bank account was, the sort of house I lived in, or the kind of car I drove...but the world may be different because I was important in the life of a child.
