What schools say about EPM

"I can honestly say EPM has been one of the most exemplary companies I have ever had the pleasure of working with. Since day one, their communication, correspondence and HR advisory help has been second to none. We have dedicated HR Advisers that I can call upon when I need some advice or just that little bit of reassurance. They have never made me feel like I am bothering them or like anything is too much trouble. I would recommend EPM to any Schools and Academies who require a HR service!"

Rosa Heslop, HR Officer, Elveden Schools Trust

"The initial setup 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 decision to move to EPM was great, from the negotiation of the package, onboarding and finally, our first payroll month. Everyone we spoke to during the process was helpful, knowledgeable and, most of all, patient! The process went very smoothly with very few anomalies. The portal is a joy, easy to use and navigate."

Lisa Jones, School Business Manager, Shaw Primary Academy
