It’s easy, intuitive and works for everyone—from finance professionals to school staff. The fact that finance and budgets are aligned in one system makes everything more streamlined. For any CFO, that’s a must.
With Access, everything is connected, and we won’t be wasting time waiting for the system to catch up.
We didn’t want a patchwork of systems—we wanted a one-stop shop. Access Education offered exactly what we needed: a unified platform, a clear roadmap, and a team that feels like an extension of our own.
With per‑school pricing, you pay one fixed annual fee—no matter your number of students or staff—so you get full access to bundled modules at a predictable cost. In contrast, per‑pupil or per‑staff pricing means fees go up as your school grows, and costs can quickly become unpredictable.
For most schools, especially those planning to grow, per‑school pricing offers better value and stability. You get integrated modules—like finance, HR, and parental engagement—without hidden fees or fluctuating costs.
Absolutely. You can begin with a focused bundle like Financial Focus or Thriving People and add more modules whenever you need them—full flexibility designed around your school’s changing needs.
Each bundle offers a mix of complementary modules tailored to your goals:
Every bundle comes with a single-contract pricing advantage.
No—per‑school pricing means you won’t encounter variable costs based on headcount or student numbers. You pay one clear, upfront price for the academic year, with optional add-ons available if your needs evolve.
MATs benefit from predictable costs across all schools. Each school pays a fixed per‑school fee regardless of size, making trust-wide budgeting simpler and more consistent.
Every bundle comes with a Customer Success Plan to guide you from onboarding through to full adoption. Plans include specialist support, workshops, training, and ongoing check-ins—so you’re never on your own.
Yes. If you choose Financial Focus, you'll get key features like:
