Schedule of requirements and best practice
The requirements and best practice in the handbook brought together into one list.
The Education and Skills Funding Agency (ESFA) closed on 31 March 2025. All activity has moved to the Department for Education (DfE). You should continue to follow this guidance.
These are the requirements and best practice in the ITP financial handbook brought together into one list. It abbreviates these requirements and so cannot be used as a substitute for the full handbook. References to the relevant sections are included, which must be read in full. This tool is an entirely optional resource, and there is no requirement to submit it to ESFA.
