Every year schools spend in excess of £9bn on the procurement of goods and services. The Schools’ Buying Club was set up to help schools manage their \'back office\' more efficiently and return money to front line teaching and learning. It offers impartial and compliant procurement advice at no cost to its members. It helps schools exit poor contracts, establish new ones and uses robust quality standards and methodologies to measure suppliers performance and hold them to account.Its mission is to ensure that every school in the country is well managed and maximises every penny spent; enabling school staff to concentrate on achieving the best outcomes for children and young
