The finance office for private and international schools
Most private schools have international pupils, and international schools have many. Ting looks after fees, VAT, payroll, admissions and the money between campuses, in the UK and across Asia, so your Head and bursar can stay on the school.
UK track: private schools
Day and boarding schools in the UK, many with international boarders, dealing with VAT on fees, termly billing, bursaries and teacher payroll.
Asia track: international schools
International schools in Malaysia, Singapore, Hong Kong and across Southeast Asia, with families paying from many countries and teachers recruited worldwide.
Services for schools
One team across the UK and Asia, with AI doing the first pass and Ting professionals checking the work. We hold parent billing data only, never pupil records.
Termly fees, billed right
Termly bills with deposits, sibling discounts, bursaries and scholarships, and fees paid in advance released term by term.
VAT on fees
VAT on UK private school fees worked out from your fee bills, with the VAT you can reclaim on costs checked by a Ting tax professional.
Fee arrears under control
Unpaid fees by family account, automatic reminders and payment plans. Ting can run credit control for you.
Overseas parents
Families pay in their own currency through providers like Wise and Airwallex, matched to the right family account.
Admissions and recruitment
Every family from first enquiry to re-enrolment, open days and campaigns in the countries your families come from, and agent commissions paid.
Teachers paid in every country
Payroll for teaching and support staff in the UK and Asia, international teacher allowances, recruitment and training.
Budget and fee setting
Next year's budget from your enrolment forecast, so governors see what a fee change or bursary policy does before they decide.
Campuses abroad
Market entry and partner checks for a new campus, plus brand and management fees between campuses checked for withholding tax and transfer pricing.
Reports made for schools
Every figure links back to the transaction and document behind it. Ask questions about your numbers in plain words, at no extra cost.
