The UA departments established at the turn of 2022/2023 within the schools were moved financially from schools to UA in January 2024, and the finance, communication and human resources areas were co-organised from April.
There have been some practical challenges in the organisational changes and in this case it has, among other things, been linked to permissions and accessibility within our various administrative system supports. Everyone has worked together to make things run as smoothly as possible and the issues have been worked through and resolved over time.
This has also provided opportunities to find new, common and perhaps even better/more efficient solutions when something “needs” to be addressed. It is instructive to see how things are interconnected and affect each other, where you might least expect it.
Forward-looking work is under way to establish routines for monitoring operational support and to work on achieving financial balance.
Development work is leading to new opportunities…
