A common question raised by School Business Managers is “How do we check our leasing contracts are ok?”

Here are some of our guidelines for schools leasing equipment.

Ensure that the Operating Lease you are signing is a true operating lease and compliant with funding guidelines. 

Ensure that your funder is working to current guidelines and that any residual value is a true reflection of the future value of the equipment.

Check the working life of the asset.

The length of the Lease Contract should not be longer than the working life of the equipment you are funding. In the bad old days (20 years ago!) we would come across panicking head teachers asking us for help because they had signed a 3-year lease (often a telecoms package) with a 7-year maintenance contract, or a seven-year lease on computers that had a classroom life of 3 years. Thankfully those days are over and funding guidelines are there to protect schools from skullduggery.

What type of funding options are there for your school?

Your project may involve different assets from different suppliers. You can tailor a lease contract to fit in with your budgets and administration. For example, you can sign off one lease with supplier A and 6 months later sign off the second tranche with supplier B and have the lease contracts run co-terminously.

Pay Annual Invoices.

This is more cost-effective than monthly or quarterly payments. Independent schools can, of course, opt to pay termly.

Check up-front how much notice you have to give on an operating lease.

You will have various options, but it is better to plan well in advance and if notice is to be given there is nothing to stop you from giving notice early on in the contract.

What about the maintenance on the equipment being leased?
This is not included in the lease contract, but schools have an obligation to ensure that equipment is maintained and kept in good repair.
 

If you would like to have a chat about your funding options or would like us to take a look at the small print on old contracts, you have signed we are happy to do this free of charge – just contact our experienced team of finance experts below

Cyclescheme have become the first provider to deliver 1m bikes under the Cycle to Work programme. It was launched in 2005 and Axis are pleased to have been involved with the facility since its inception, providing alternative methods of funding to the largest corporates, local authorities, and since Covid, right down to the smaller SMEs.

Our largest single Cyclescheme finance contract was over £570,00.00 whilst the overall funding for this one client topped £3.2M. That’s a lot of bikes and a lot less fossil fuel being used.

It has been a super vendor programme from many aspects, not least working with the enthusiastic staff at Cyclescheme and seeing a lease programme operate successfully for such a long period of time.

We hope to continue helping get bikes on the road and, in our small way, help the drive to Net Zero.

The Cycle to Work Scheme

Axis Lease Management Ltd has been funding the Cycle to Work Scheme for over 12 years and has funded in excess of 40,000 bikes across the UK for many different organisations including, Blue-chip organisations, Local Authorities, NHS Trusts, Fire & Rescue Services, Police Constabularies and retail outlets.

HMRC have recently advised that there is no longer a £1000 limit for each employee on the scheme.
This gives employees access to enthusiast-level bikes, such as E-Bikes, Cargo Bikes & Quality Carbon Road Bikes, all through the cycle to work salary sacrifice scheme.

If you would like more info on this, please contact us. 

We have built our reputation on providing an excellent service to our customers by being both competitive with our funding costs and proactive in supporting all parties concerned in order to deliver a professional service. As a result, virtually all of our customers return to us to finance their next scheme.

We have used Axis Leasing for our cycle to work schemes for many years now and they have always been great.  Christine is really helpful and always keeps us up to date when we are running the scheme.  When we changed franchise Christine was great with advising us on how to get the finance for our new scheme.  Looking forward to working with Axis again this year.

 

Leanne Hawthorne, Abellio Scotrail.

Here are just some of our clients who are already up and cycling

Arranging a Cycle to Work Scheme is simple: We arrange a credit line, email documents out for signature and then you collect the bike vouchers

Ring us on: 01269 844442 or email: cs@axisleasing.com

*Please note that the scheme is available to UK tax payers who pay using PAYE. Self-employed workers cannot take part in the scheme.

The Benefits of a Parental Rental Scheme

In the UK parents invest millions per year in technologies for the household. Most families have a computer and internet access, so why rent or buy school sponsored equipment?

Our Laptops for Students programme can be the solution for many schools who struggle to afford new equipment. It has the benefit of bridging the home school divide, in which the students’ use of computers at home is monitored and valuable out of school hours learning opportunities are not lost. We can suit the programme to a wide variety of Laptops, Chromebooks, and Tablets

The essence of the scheme is to make available an option whereby parents contribute to the cost of the acquisition, benefiting from the economies of scale or bulk purchase and education based pricing.

The main benefits to the school include the following:

  • It can be cost neutral.
  • There is no administrative burden on the school as we manage the parental collections.
  • Socio-economic issues can be factored in.
  • Full access to the online Portal allowing the schools manager to monitor collections.
  • Easy to arrange.

Assistance is available to help you to introduce it to the Parents/Carers.

Please contact us if you would like to discuss this in more detail
