supporting Friends of edexec
Stronger together,
better for schools & trusts
We work closely with school business management groups and organisations across the UK. Their local insight, expertise and support help us create events that are relevant, practical and shaped by the needs of our community.
Meet the friends we’re proud to work with.

SASBM brings professionals together to share experience, build connections and learn from one another, with conferences, professional development and an active online community keeping the conversation going between events.

Partnership sits at the heart of L.E.A.D. Academy Trust. Across its academies, the Trust combines collaboration and shared best practice with the freedom for individual schools to retain their identity and respond to the communities they know best.
