Tackling Your School Accounts
Trained accountant Tracy Rivett outlines the services that Mayumi Limited can offer schools struggling to keep on top of their accounts.Mayumi Limited is based in Hereford and is a small privately owned company which strives to deliver a personal, friendly yet professional approach to your needs.
Bookkeeping and accounts administration can be a headache for school leadership staff whose priorities are running a successful school rather than worrying about paperwork. It often seems that school regulators are determined to increase the complexity of the accounts process every year, and school Governors are often not equipped to deal with the difficulties involved.
Bookkeeping
Mayumi Accounts can help you with all aspects of your bookkeeping, no matter the size of your school. Their services are tailored to suit individual clients, but cover all aspects of bookkeeping from entering invoices to making payments, and accounting for monies received to printing weekly or monthly reports.
Mayumi Ltd also uses up to date software to provide forecasting and planning to help move your school to the next level. This can be extremely useful in helping to formulate your school improvement plan or school development plan (SDP).
“Mayumi Accounts can help you with all aspects of your bookkeeping, no matter the size of your school”According to NCSL guidelines, the SDP should “cover a minimum of three years and the current year – at least – should be fully costed,” and Mayumi are in a perfect position to help schools achieve this.
Payroll
Payroll can be a minefield, but Mayumi Ltd can help schools organise the payment of their teaching and non-teaching staff, and provide payslips on a weekly or monthly basis. They can also keep schools up to date with their PAYE payments, whilst their software will keep schools informed of and in line with any changes in employment legislation.

Being able to out-source essential tasks such as these can bring school leaders a great deal of peace of mind, and allow them to focus on the task of preparing and teaching lessons, knowing that their paperwork is taken care of.
Mayumi Ltd is a personal, friendly, all round service, whose staff can either work within schools at an agreed time or day, or work from within their own office having collected the work required.
