Schools & Colleges Payroll Services

Every payroll should be efficient, reliable, accurate and within budget.  With many LEAs increasing costs, Bursars and Finance Managers are now reviewing payroll service options.

More and more schools and colleges are finding that outsourcing payroll to established, specialist service providers can be more satisfactory and cost effective than the customary LEA payroll provision.

ICS provides a personal, consistent and highly accurate service. Your IPP qualified payroll controllers can be reached on direct dial phone numbers - making them as accessible as an on-site payroll department. Part or fully managed payroll services to suit your needs and budget include:

• Management reports
• Data input/processing
• Payslips 
• Liaison with IR and 3rd parties
• Pension payments
• PAYE
• Union payments
• Employee query handling
• End of year processes

Outsourced Payroll Services

School and College Payroll Knowledge
Payroll and employment legislation is increasingly complex and time consuming. ICS has the knowledge and expertise within dedicated teams who concentrate solely on payroll requirements in schools and colleges. 

With every payroll period, a number of reports summarising all payments and deductions are provided to the payroll manager to check the payments and the impact on budget. ICS arranges payment by the appropriate electronic bank transfer arrangement from the client’s account to the employees’ account and ensures that each employee receives a fully detailed payslip.

Shared Services
It can often make sense to join together with other local schools or colleges requiring payroll services.  ICS will be pleased to host local briefings to outline the advantages and discuss any issues with groups of Finance Officers and Bursars in a specific area.
