Get started Get started Get started Our ExpertiseAllowing school leaders to focus on what they do best – educating childrenWith increasing regulation, and more onerous inspection criteria, and complex financials many Heads and SLTs have become more corporate administrators and detached from the core of their role. Forfar frees up leadership time to allow school management teams to focus on what is important – educating children.For many school owners, the decision to seek investment can be difficult. For some, they recognise that it is time to ‘pass on the mantle’ to a new operator. For many others, especially not-for-profit schools, they realise that increasingly operating schools is becoming a complex and costly full-time business which requires professional full-time governance by a team of school experts. close Our SchoolsContinue to grow…Our aim is to create inspiring schools that put the child at the centre of all we do, that teach self-belief and deliver academic excellence.
