School business professionals were a relatively new breed when I left Nottingham University seven years ago with a degree in politics. Many schools were still reliant on support from the local authority and the role of a school business leader was still emerging.
I studied for a series of post-graduate school business director qualifications run by the National College, including the Advanced Diploma in School Business Management. While working on my dissertation I found that the National Association of School Business Management (NASBM) provided a professional competency framework for the role.
As time has gone on, NASBM has developed a comprehensive set of professional standards and these help schools to understand different job titles, the standards and responsibilities expected of different grades, pay structures and routes for progression.
