Advice & Support

At PLR Advisory our experience has taught us that no question is a stupid question: it’s an opportunity to inform, guide, and reassure. 

The complex nature of the academies sector often creates anxiety amongst Academy Trusts, and in particular, their finance teams in terms of knowing the best approach to take.

It is important that you have someone you can call on and discuss your concerns with, confidentially, so that you can make an informed decision about the way ahead.

PLR Advisory is pleased to offer your Academy Trust a client hotline service where you can call to discuss your concern and then receive the legislative and practical solution.

Our goal is that you have clarity. To ensure this for a subscription fee you will receive a response to all your concerns and not any surprise additional fees.

Just some of the areas we have previously discussed with Academy Trusts include:

  • Related Parties
  • GAG Pooling
  • Leasing
  • Deficit recovery plans
  • Governance arrangements
  • Secondment of staff
  • VAT and Corporation Tax
  • Benefits in Kind

My previous Trust worked with Phil from its inception in 2017. Phil is a skilled professional and provided us with the assurance the Board required around our centralised finance function provision. His vast knowledge of the sector’s challenges served our Trust well in keeping ahead on our obligations. Besides being a very personable individual Phil is a great inclusive practitioner; I have no hesitation in recommending his services to any Trust.
