Resource details
A planner for headteachers, business managers and governors starting work on next year's budget. You build one roll projection and three staffing scenarios, then work back from the dates you have to meet. It is designed to be completed in November and December, so any structural decision is made with time to consult.
What's inside
- A three-year roll projection sheet
- An income sheet
- A costed staffing table for each of the three scenarios
- A decision timeline running back from the resignation deadlines
- A risk register
- Sources with links to the DfE guidance, plus copyright and disclaimer notes
It is also included in the November 2026 Leadership Pack.
Format: an editable Word document and a PDF, both in landscape.
