Governing bodies are directly responsible for the financial stewardship of their schools and therefore must ensure that an effective monitoring cycle is in place. The above reporting cycle relates only to the reporting requirements of the authority and schools may continue to have or wish to add local monitoring arrangements as part of their governance, in order to meet the requirements of their governing bodies.
