"HCSS has always provided an excellent and professional service. The County Council’s Schools Forum has recently agreed to upgrade to FPSadvance.Net, which includes a School Development Planner. It is always a pleasure to work with HCSS."

"In the short space of my time with the authority I found the customer service and support that has been provided by HCSS to be adaptable to our needs. HCSS has worked together with colleagues and schools to create a tool specific to their needs providing training and support as and when required. The technical support has been of a high standard."

Kashmira Lad, Senior Principal Accountant - Schools, London Borough of Westminster

"The knowledge of HCSS staff is impressive and the Financial Planning Software is excellent. HCSS consultants have spent time with us in Durham to bespoke the software and replicate the local formula. Feedback from schools is very positive. Training provided by HCSS for schools and LA officers is high quality and helpful. We can recommend HCSS without reservation."

Paul Jackson, Schools Finance Manager, Durham Authority

"Since working with HCSS Education, we have been impressed with the support and service that has been provided to us as a Local Authority and our schools. They are willing to provide solutions to tailor their product to the need of the customer and are willing to adapt and meet those needs within a short timescale. Our experience of working with HCSS in the roll out of the financial planning software to our schools was excellent, accommodating our demands in relation to training dates and venues."

Ken Ampleford, Special Projects Manager, Hampshire County Council

"We started using the HCSS budget planning software initially to help schools with deficits to produce deficit recovery plans. It has since been rolled out to all schools, and is regarded as an extremely useful tool. With the introduction of multi year budgets it becomes a necessary tool.

We have always found the staff at HCSS Education not only to be extremely professional and knowledgeable about all aspects of schools funding, but are always very friendly, helpful and willing to provide advice and support."

Amanda Russell, Head of Schools Finance Support, London Borough of Bromley
