Accountancy for Schools, Colleges and Academies

We have a team of five consultants available including one of our partners and a senior manager dedicated to this sector, who would be able to come to your premises and assist right away. We offer a time based service and we would outline the work we do and estimate how long it will take to complete the tasks by the different members of staff.

Any school about to convert to an Academy – Mrs Bingham, Britannia Education Trust

Academies Accounting

We converted in June 2017 and formed a Multi Academy Trust. The process had been challenging, devoting as much time as possible to getting the Trust going to ensure a smooth transition.

Bankruptcy to £3 Million Turnover

Accounting Audit Bookkeeping and VAT

Starting from nothing – no systems, no controls, no people, no experience of running their own business;
Taking on big contracts from people left in the lurch by the demise of their former employer;

Building Company Structure Accounts

Accounting Audit

We assisted in the creation of a tax efficient and risk mitigating group of companies. Our client wanted to create a business that purchased, developed, sold or let residential or commercial property. We devised a group structure that would allow for the properties to be safeguarded should the developing side of the business fail, but still allow losses in one company be relieved for tax purposes in another company. This has to date saved our client tens of thousands in tax while protecting all of their assets.

Care Home Registered Auditors

Accounting Audit Bookkeeping and VAT

We have helped a firm of Chartered Accountants who had assisted their client, a company owning and running 13 care homes across the South East, grow to the point where they required an audit. Because we are a firm of registered auditors we were able to provide an independent and professional audit when the firm could not meaning that was retained.

Got rid of the worry about ESFA returns – Nicola Tomlin, Great Learners Trust

Academies

Grow from 900 going up to 1,500 pupils – Mr Seager, Stratford School Academy

Academies Accounting

Alan Patient & Co have assisted us through a period of change. They have helped update our financial controls, advised on and implemented new accounting software and aided us in maintaining budgetary controls to help us grow from 900 going up to 1,500 pupils.

Having experts on your side – Mrs Edge, Agate Momentum Trust

Academies Accounting

Converting two schools into a new Multi Academy Trust we knew that we were going to need all of our finance staff to be at the top of their game.

Heating Engineers Management Accounting

Accounting Audit Bookkeeping and VAT

We have helped a start-up heating engineer turn their business into a multimillion pound turnover company by providing up to date management accounts and helping them through the many pitfalls of VAT, payroll, CIS and tax efficient profit extraction.

Printer Repair Company VAT Registration

Bookkeeping and VAT

We recommended our client to apply for VAT registration to save them money. He runs a profitable printer repair company which was near the VAT turnover threshold but was sceptical of having to produce quarterly returns to HMRC. When we explained that we could do the VAT returns and this would actually make the company thousands of pounds in extra profit in the first year alone he decided to register for VAT right away.

Property Portfolio Tax Advice

Accounting Audit

We assisted with a new business venture for a company looking to reinvest its profits. Our client had a sizeable sum of money accumulated in their company that they did not want to draw out as they would incur higher rates of personal tax, effectively giving a large portion to HMRC.
