Product details

If you're a School Business Manager, you're holding the engine room of the school — budgets, contracts, compliance, premises, staffing, H&S, policies, governors… and the rest!

The HeadteacherChat® School Business Manager Planner is designed to get it out of your head and onto the page — so you're not juggling deadlines, audits, meetings, and urgent issues on sheer memory alone. It follows the school calendar and gives you a practical structure to stay steady, even when the week gets messy.

Designed by me, an experienced school leader, for all of you fabulous school office staff who work so hard in schools for us all! I hope you enjoy using it! Lucy


Why this isn't a generic diary

Because a generic diary doesn't understand:

  • the rhythm of budget cycles, procurement, and reporting
  • the compliance pressure that sits alongside day-to-day operations
  • how quickly your priorities can be derailed by the next "urgent" issue

This planner helps keep actions visible and deadlines trackable.
