Bromcom Healthcheck and Closedown

Audience: Primary, Secondary
Single session
  • All

Brief overview

All Kent Maintained Schools have to close their Bromcom Accounts software each year and send the Local Authority a record of their accounts.  The  Accounts software must also be checked to ensure it is up to date and that there are no issues with the system (Healthcheck at least twice a year).

This whole day course incorporates the Healthcheck and Closedown courses which will enable the delegate to check their own system and be able to successfully close their accounts for the current financial year.  The course also includes how to open a new financial year on Bromcom.

Ideally delegates should be familiar with using Bromcom.

Delegates will be required to bring a copy of the  Healthcheck (previously sent out) and Bromcom Closedown pack (usually sent out February 2026).
