About this course

This course is delivered in two parts to guide delegates through the year‑end processes in Arbor Finance. The morning session provides an overview of key year‑end tasks, including essential housekeeping and a review of the Financial Services checklist that must be completed in advance. The session also covers the latest updates from HCC. Delegates must arrive having finalised their school’s financial accounts to 31 March 2026, completed the bank reconciliation, and carried out a comprehensive system reconciliation. A full list of accruals and committed balances must be prepared beforehand, and the final capital return submitted where applicable. During the afternoon, Financial Services staff will be available to support delegates as they complete the year‑end process and to respond to any queries that arise.

  • prepare the school’s financial data/finance system for year-end

  • submit the year-end accounts to HCC
