Small schools and ICFP

As a governor, and chair of finance, in a small, LA maintained village primary school where numbers are fluctuating between around 40 and 60 I know how important using ICFP is to those schools. But I am also acutely aware of how difficult it can be to stretch limited funds to purchase a software solution; however important that software may be to achieving a balanced budget.

Some schools will benefit from their license being purchased by a multi-academy trust for them, or be able to share in one of the larger scale LA procurements we currently have on-going. But we have decided we need a specific pricing structure that addresses the challenges of small, and very small, maintained schools and single academy trusts.

With this in mind we have decided, since the initial release of ICFP.school, to review our pricing structure so we can offer small schools access to the system whatever their particular financial challenges may be. To achieve this lower price we will need to restrict the number of users for these smaller schools, but even with a single license the head or school business manager will be able to create scenarios and share the outcomes with staff and governors.

If you are a small school, and would like access to ICFP.school, then do please get in touch.
