Our mindset is simple.
MLG Education Services was formed in May 2013, to support schools that are converting to academy status. Many schools have found that making the change can be challenging, and our goal is to help schools overcome the challenges so that both staff and pupils can enjoy the benefits of being part of a thriving school.
With the growth in the number of schools converting to academies, and the number of academies needing to restructure, demand for our services has increased and we now work with over 100 academies on a broad range of assignments.
We specialise in supporting newly formed trusts and existing trusts that are changing their structures. Based in Warwick, our growing team works with schools across the UK – working with directors and business managers – and increasingly working closely with the Education Funding Agency finance team in Coventry.
Our Value
We're on your team
We have a great deal of experience of working in and with schools, particularly academies. When a school has been working with the local authority for many years, dealing with auditors and other finance and legal professionals can be challenging. We sit on your side of the table in meetings, supporting you and fielding questions from the auditors on your behalf.
The school day comes first
We know that you have a school to run, so we can arrange meetings at a time to suit you. We will attend evening governors’ meetings when required, and we’re available by phone around the clock to deal with urgent queries.
If you have any questions about MLG Education Services, please don’t hesitate to get in touch by calling us on 01926 679252. Alternatively, you can reach us via the form on our Contact page.
We provide tailored support
You’re free to choose which services we deliver for you, based on your requirements. In the schools we currently work with we cover a range of roles from consultant finance director, right through to providing a bookkeeping service.
Hand-holding is our speciality
Everyone at MLG has worked in schools themselves, and we know that teaching and learning must come first. The head teachers and management teams we work with are highly skilled at what they do, but understandably finances aren’t always at the very top of the agenda.
Whether we’re helping your school to convert to academy status, helping to put your books in order post-conversion, or pulling together a rescue plan, we will walk you through every step of the process and do our utmost to explain everything in clear language.
We offer a cost-effective solution for your school
Our goal is to help schools, and we know that budgets are tight, so we’re always upfront about our fees. We have a solid accountancy background, but we don’t charge corporate-style fees. The clock isn’t running every time you invite us to a meeting or pick up the phone to ask us a question. This enables us to build positive, professional relationships within schools.
Our goal is always to share best practice so that our clients can benefit from the knowledge and experience we have gained in the education sector. We regularly host complimentary seminars to deliver information, pool our knowledge and allow school directors and managers to learn from colleagues in other schools.
