The School Business Management Partnership (SBMP) is an established partnership between Serco Education, Adfecto and the Institute of School Business Leaders (ISBL). Together, we have been the leading provider of national SBM programmes on behalf of the National College for Teaching and Leadership (NCTL) since each programme began.

We have been responsible for the design, update and delivery of the Certificate, Diploma and Advanced Diploma for School Business Managers (CSBM, DSBM, ADSBM), as well as the School Business Director programme (SBD), from as far back as 2003. We also developed the School Administration Foundation Certificate (SAFC), a programme recognised by the NCTL as suitable preparation for CSBM (now known as the Level 4 Diploma).
