3.Three Year Budgeting and Forecasting

INTRODUCTION

The purpose of these guidance notes is to assist schools in budget setting. Some of the information may need to be revised to take account of changing circumstances.

From April 2016 the principal source of information on school spending will be each school’s financial system and we will no longer attempt to reconcile at individual ledger codes information held on school and Council records. All costs will be met from school bank accounts including payroll. Schools will be either invoiced directly for council services or in the case of payroll through direct debits. We will no longer need to send to schools Budget Control Reports which in any event are not as up to date as a school’s own records and no longer will be relevant.

Once the schedule of advances of schools’ budget shares and grant payments is set (see above), except in very exceptional circumstances, there will be no need for additional cash advances to schools. Schools will be able to manage their cash flow accordingly.

PAY AWARD

Teachers Pay

Details on schoolteachers pay and conditions for 2015/16 and 2016/17 can be found on the following websites:

Applying the 2016 pay award

(a)Following the government’s acceptance of the recommendations of the STRB’s 21st - 25th reports, schools now have a very large degree of flexibility to differentiate the remuneration they offer to teachers to reflect various factors, including local recruitment and retention; roles and responsibilities; and specialist qualifications.

(b)In its report, last year the STRB reiterated its expectation that it should be for schools themselves to decide the extent to which any uplift to pay ranges and allowances within the national pay framework will apply to their teachers. It was the STRB’s view that uplifts should not be applied automatically to teachers and that any individual pay award needed to take account of performance. The STRB made very clear that it was not intended that the uplifts to the framework should translate into uniform pay increases for every teacher within every school. It is for schools to determine at the institutional level how to take account of the uplifts to pay ranges and allowances in the light of their individual school’s pay policy.

(c)There was an uplifting of the current minima and maxima for each of the national pay ranges by 1% in September 2015 this was with two exceptions, a 2% increase to the maximum of the main pay range and no increase to the maxima of the eight head teacher pay group ranges. The effects of these changes are demonstrated here.

Officers

The pay scales from 2015/16 are shown here, at the point of writing these notes it has yet to be confirmed as to whether there will be any pay awards in 2016/17. In addition please note that the schools LGPS employer contribution remains at 22% for 2016/17.

SUPPORT AND ADVICE

If your school purchases services from the School Bursarial Team, their officers are able to provide advice on budget setting, and they possess an excel spread sheet to assist schools in setting and profiling budgets. You can also contact Schools Accountancy services for queries relating to budget allocations.

THREE YEAR BUDGET AND FORECASTING

To ensure that Schools stay within budget from 2016/17 onwards it is recommended that schools complete 3 year forecasts of spend and budgets so that early action can be taken by schools in response to possible pressures.

Further guidance and training will be provide in 2016/17

INFLATION FACTORS

The inflation factors used below in these Guidance Notes simply show inflation between December 2014 to December 2015, and are the most up to date measures of inflation at the time of writing these notes. They are simply a guide, but can be applied to your 2015/16 original budgets to give an estimated budget for 2016/17.

TEACHING STAFF(established full-time and part-time teachers)

A.The salary costs of each teacher charged against your school’s delegated budget comprise the following:

(i) Basic Salary (Inner London pay scales)

(ii) Allowances (e.g. Teaching and Learning Responsibility Payments)

(iii) Employer’s Contributions in respect of Superannuation and NI.

(i)In estimating your school’s teacher’s salary costs for 2016/17 you would normally need to take into account future increases arising from pay awards and increments, which are both payable from 1st September.

Please be aware of the following have applied since September 2014:

• the end of pay increases based on length of service

• all teachers’ pay progression will be linked to performance based on annual appraisals

• the abolition of mandatory pay points within the pay scales for classroom teachers to give schools greater freedom on how much teachers are paid. They would remain in place for reference only in the main pay scale to guide career expectations for new teachers entering the profession.

(ii)You will also need to make an assessment of the additional incremental costs your school will incur.

The current pay scales are shown here. For the purposes of setting a budget for 2016/17 we have included projection for September 2016. This includes a 1% increase on all salary points from September 2016 with two exceptions - a 2% increase to the maximum of the main pay range and no increase to the maxima of the eight head teacher pay group ranges. These projection rates are based on the September 2015 pay award.

(iii)The employer’s superannuation contributions rate for 2016/17 is 16.48% for teaching staff and 22% for non-teaching staff.

From April 2016 the existing state pensions and additional state pension will be replaced by the new state pension. The introduction of the new state pension will prevent employees/employers from contracting out and thus receiving the national insurance rebate. As a result the employer NI rate for 2016/17 is 13.8% for all earnings over the secondary threshold (10.40% 2015/16 if opted into pension). For more information please follow the link below:

In 2015/16 the contracting out rebate between the lower earnings limit and the upper accrual point (£8,112 and £40,040 respectively) was 3.4% of earnings between the two thresholds.

(iv)Please note that Heads, Deputy Heads and Assistant Heads, are paid on a spot salary and do not receive an increment automatically.

You can obtain the latest employers’ contribution rates for N.I and Superannuation by referring to your payroll provider’s reports, which identifies these on costs for each employee. You may have some members of staff who have chosen to “opt out” of the superannuation scheme, which would reduce your total employers’ contribution.

A worked example of how to estimate the cost of a teacher can be found here.

NON-TEACHING STAFF

6.1In estimating your school’s non-teachers’ salaries costs for the coming financial year, you would normally need to take into account future increases arising from pay awards and increments, which are both payable from 1st April. at the point of writing these notes it has yet to be confirmed as to whether there will be any pay awards in 2016/17 therefore the 2015/16 pay scales (with the single NI rate) are shown here. In addition, please take into account additional incremental costs.

6.2Listed below is general information you might find useful in compiling non-teaching estimates:

Annual Hours -The FTE paid hours is based on 1,820 hours (i.e. 35 hrs x 52 weeks).

Term Time

(i)For school administrators, clerical, general assistants and laboratory technicians working term-time only (i.e. 40 weeks), the number of weeks applied in calculating their annual salary is determined by the length of service and consequent holiday entitlement as follows:

Up to 5 years service 47.0 weeks

After 5 years service 47.6 weeks

After 10 years service 48.2 weeks

Thus for an employee with less than 5 years service working 20 hours per week, term-time only,

The calculation would be as follows:

(Basic Salary + Allowances) x 20 hours p/w x 47.0 weeks

35 hours p/w x 52 weeks

(ii)For Nursery Nurses, Welfare Assistants, Senior SMSA’s and SMSA’s working term-time only (i.e. 39 weeks), the number of weeks applied in calculating their annual salary is determined by the length of service and consequent holiday entitlement as follows:

Up to 5 years service 46 weeks

After 5 years service 46.6 weeks and

10 years service 47.2 weeks

Thus for Welfare assistant with less than 5 years service, is calculated by multiplying the basic salary plus allowances by their contracted hours per week, times 52 weeks and dividing by 35hourstimes 52 weeks.

The calculation would be as follows:

(Basic Salary + Allowances) x 32.5 hours p/w x 46 weeks

35 hours p/w x 52 weeks

6.3New Gradings for the purpose of determining whether an employee will be entitled to an increment on 1stApril, you should note the following Scale ranges:

(a)Nursery Nurses – Grade 6 - Scale Point 26 to 28

(b)Welfare Assistants, LSA & Teaching Asst – Grade 5 - Scale Point 22 to 25

(c)Caretaker – Grade 5/6 - Scale Point 22 to 28

(d)Asst. Caretaker – Grade 4 - Scale Point 18 to 21

(e)Senior SMSA’s – Grade 3 –Scale Point 14 to 17

(f)SMSA’s – Grade 2 –Scale Point 10 to 13

6.4Caretakers’ Overtime

Overtime hours are paid at the following rates:

(a)Monday - Saturday (up to 12 midnight) - overtime rate x 1.5.

(b)Monday - Saturday (after midnight) - overtime rate x 2.

(c)Sundays - overtime x 2.

(d)Bank Holidays - hours worked x basic rate and overtime rate at plain time + time off in lieu.

6.5Other

(a)Caretakers – Council Tax (Band D) was £1,367 for 2015-16. At the point of writing this note the notion of freezing council tax for 2016/17 is currently under consideration by cabinet.

For calculations with reference to projected meter readings of previous year(s) actual(s) please complete the following table.

NOTE: When two or more schools share the same site and there is only one meter, the school in which the meter is located should propose the total estimate and notify the other school(s) on site of the amounts attributable to them together with details of calculation. It is therefore necessary to make adjustment for shared sites. Please complete the following table for shared sites costs:
