Schools can now acquire equipment through lease finance!
New accounting rules now allow leasing options tailored specifically for local authority-funded schools. Leasing is a great way for schools to secure the equipment and facilities they need to provide an A* star education.
Now, thanks to the Department for Education’s (DfE) pre-approved list of commonly used assets, schools can now finance essential equipment without the admin burden and need for consent from DfE.
Starting from April 2024, local authority-funded schools can take advantage of finance leasing options for prescribed equipment. Academies have the opportunity to adopt these rules starting September 1st, 2024.
So, what assets can authority-funded schools lease under the DfE’s guidance?
