What Our Customers Say

“We would fully recommend the services of JCA School Support.  JCA employees have worked as the school’s Strategic Finance Advisor for two and a half years. During this period they have provided support at all levels: to myself, the finance officer and governors. We are kept fully informed of the regulatory requirements of the local authority and have been supported through the budget setting process.

The company provides a reliable and timely service which ensures that the school is able to submit accurate quarterly and year end statements to the local authority within required timescales.

We would have no hesitation in recommending JCA School Support’s services “.

Coulsdon C of E Primary School

 

“As a Head teacher of a large Infant School in a challenging area, I have appreciated the time and commitment that JCA has shown in ensuring that the appropriate support and guidance has been put in place for me, school office and the Governing Body. The business manager has streamlined the school office into an effective and professional provider for the parents/carers of the school. The high quality financial support has taken a lot of pressure of myself and the GB and has kept the school in line with statutory requirements and up to speed with many of the changes that have taken place. JCA has provided training for a range of audiences with in the school which has enabled the school to run effectively and efficiently. I can highly recommend JCA without any reservation.”
