We're the rising company of the year
We are delighted to announce that we were crowned the Rising Company of the Year at the Multi Academy Trust Association (MATA) awards in March 2024. 🏆 This award was given to a newcomer in the education space that is one to watch!
It's incredible that XfE have been recognised in the Education Sector for our accounting software for schools as a company who are striving to support Trusts in the most dynamic and best way possible. We are so proud of what we have achieved.
We were really pleased with the installation – I was able to start working through a backlog of purchase orders the same day that it was installed. Everything was done behind the scenes and last year’s information was imported onto Xero so I could access the previous year’s records easily… I’d give the installation 10 out of 10.

I just wanted to express my delight and joy at being audited and being able to use Xero to evidence areas! It is blooming amazing!

Working with the team has felt more like a partnership rather than a traditional customer/client relationship which has been refreshing and I look forward to continue working with you for many years to come! I would also add that moving to XfE is going to save the school money as it is much more cost-effective option compared to many of the other education finance systems available. Velda Houlden

I need quality information to make informed decisions – if I am the “pilot” then Xero is my financial “cockpit”, from where I control the school’s operations.

I would recommend XfE for its ease of use and cost and time-saving benefits and combined with the collaborative expert support from the team has given us peace of mind.
