New legislation around equalities, transparency and accountability now requires all schools to publish a direct link from their school websites to the Schools Financial Benchmarking dedicated to their school using the unique reference number allocated by the Department for Education.

Financial benchmarking means comparing your finances with other schools and academies who have similar characteristics and challenges.

Areas that schools often compare are their income, expenditure, balance and workforce with either schools of a similar size or within their local authority (LA).
