What school leaders say about EPM

The initial setting up was amazing! The onboarding team were brilliant – it’s really daunting changing providers and they provided so much support - no question was too much trouble. EPM was recommended to us by another school, and we are very happy we chose EPM. We receive much more information and have a much better handle on things, including far better reporting than we received with our previous provider. I would give EPM top marks.

Alison Allee, Bursar, Syresham St James CE Primary School & Nursery

Our Payroll service is now phenomenal. Our Payroll Advisor has been amazing and informative, people paid correctly, and we always feel there is someone available to help and answer queries. Nothing ever feels like too much trouble. We changed the way we worked when we moved to EPM. We now manage things centrally and this has really supported us. EPM have brought us a really high level, communicative Payroll system and access to relevant guidance and information whenever needed.
