What the notice says

North Tyneside Council requires the continuation of their Schools MI System - Finance Module. The Authority needs to maintain the existing finance system as it provides schools with an integrated, user‑friendly platform that streamlines budgeting, purchasing, and financial reporting, making it easier for staff to maintain accurate, real‑time oversight of school finances. Retaining the current system for an additional year offers stability during planning cycles, avoids the disruption and cost of transitioning to a new system, and ensures continuity of data, workflows, and staff confidence. It also allows schools to fully embed existing processes, maximise the value of previous training and configuration, and take advantage of ongoing updates and support that strengthen compliance and financial governance.
