Orbis Internal Audit

From 09 October 2023 we will be launching a new Czone website. The new site has been redesigned and restructured, based on feedback from Schools, Colleges and Settings. We hope the new site will help all education providers to easily access useful information and resources. You will still be able to access the site using the link czone.eastsussex.gov.uk.
What do we do?
Our aim is to provide assurance to school leaders, East Sussex County Council and the public that there is adequate financial management and governance in schools. We provide a professional, objective and independent service and can provide your school with support for both financial and non-financial matters. We will help you identify risks and develop a control environment that reduces the impact of these risks to your school. Further information can be found in our:
We will:
- Carry out routine school audits. All maintained schools are reviewed on a rolling programme depending on the last audit visit and opinion but may be prioritised using a number of other risk factors such as the financial position of the school.
- Carry out themed audits of high risk processes, based on a sample of maintained schools.
- Provide ad-hoc advice on risk management, control and governance processes.

The rolling programme detailed above forms part of our statutory responsibilities and this work is not chargeable. However, there is capacity to commission additional work, such as a bespoke audit, a controls based health check or a grant claim audit and sign-off.
We also offer a range of high quality audit and assurance services for academies which can be tailored to meet the needs of the individual academy and trust.
