This information is as reported by the business, and responses are in their own words.
Payment Terms
Standard payment terms
Our standard terms are payment by the end of the month following invoice. Exceptions are direct debits collected by major suppliers, where their terms are accepted. However, where possible we will endeavour to pay suppliers within 30 days of invoice.
Were there any changes to the standard payment terms in the reporting period?

Any other information about payment terms
The school has robust cash-flow and positive bank balances and we endeavour to make payments promptly. However, as we are a school, many of the budget holders who would authorise payment of particular invoices are unavailable outside of term time and this may cause delays with educational invoices during the school holiday weeks.
Maximum contractual payment period agreed
61
Dispute Resolution Process
Concerns from suppliers regarding overdue invoices are raised to the Purchase Ledger Administrator or to the relevant department budget holder for investigation. Copy invoices are requested from the supplier and authorisation for payment is obtained from the budget holder. Disputed invoices are managed to resolution by the relevant department and, once resolved, are paid as part of the next BACS processing run.
