Cost efficiency meets compliance  

Balance budgets, ensure compliance, and support student outcomes

 

Procurement in education is at a turning point. Schools and academies face increasing pressure to maximise limited budgets, meet strict compliance requirements, and deliver for students—all while managing with small teams and rising costs.

This eGuide, featuring insights from The White Horse Federation and The Harris Federation, explores how education leaders can modernise procurement strategies to achieve both cost efficiency and compliance.

"Procurement is becoming more strategically embedded across the organisation. Everything we do in the central team goes back to the kids."

— Devyani Patel, Head of Procurement, The Harris Federation
