NCTL grant funding paid to schools in their capacity as the lead school of a Teaching School Alliance or National Support School must be spent within the terms and conditions of the grant and accounted for correctly at year end.

Any lead school with unspent grant funding at the end of the financial year should raise a Receipt in Advance to transfer any unspent funding into the new financial year.

Receipt in Advance forms can be found here

Please note, if raising a Receipts in Advance form on ledger code 85923, the data validation will need to be removed:

Select the cell you need to populate with ledger code 85923>Select Review from the tool bar>Unprotect Sheet>enter password Easter

Select Data>Data Validation>Data Validation>Clear All>Ok

Select Review>Protect Sheet>enter password Easter>Ok

You should then be able to enter 85923 into the SIMS LEDGER CODE column.

Please contact the finance helpline 0345 6037 684 if you have any queries on removing the validation.
