Local Authority Schools and Academies can use operating leases to acquire use of equipment that is vital to the running of the school – be it reprographics and IT equipment, sports or telephony equipment, cleaning or CAD CAM machinery. The staff at Accolade have extensive experience and knowledge of the Department for Education (DfE) guidance on leasing and subscription services for schools.
By using Operating Leases to hire assets, schools can provide the best equipment and facilities for their students without a large upfront cost. With budgets tighter than ever operating leases can allow schools to manage their cash flow more effectively whilst investing in brand new equipment.
The Accolade Operating Lease solution enables Schools and Academies to be able to acquire the use of IT and other equipment essential to running an education establishment: IT systems, iPads, reprographics, and gym equipment are just some of the equipment that Accolade can provide a solution for.
Local Authority schools and Academies are prohibited from entering into finance leases.
In line with accounting guidelines, Accolade has a compliant operating lease product that means that schools and academies are still able to acquire use of essential equipment without the initial large capital outlay.
Working with specialist partners, Accolade will be offering residual values based on the exact specification of the equipment being acquired. This ensures that Schools and Academies get better value from purchasing higher specification equipment.
Local Authority schools and Academies can enter into operating leases subject to the following criteria:
Accolade works with introducing brokers and the equipment suppliers to ensure that these guidelines are met every time.
Accolade works with a reputable panel of brokers that are able to provide quality business either from relationships with the customers themselves or with the suppliers of the equipment into the schools and academies.
