CEOs, heads, governors and finance teams face many challenges dealing with a changing landscape of governance and regulation. We recognise that the sector needs its advisors to be specialists, and this is why services to our education clients are only provided by our experienced education team.

We are a full-service firm and, along with financial reporting and audit, we specialise in handling the complex regulation within education. Many of us have voluntary roles in the sector, acting as governors and on audit committees, so our work with you draws on both experience and the latest developments. This ensures our advice to you is both accurate and pragmatic.
