Pecuniary Interests
The school is required by law to compile a Register of Pecuniary Interests for staff and governors. Staff and governors are asked to declare any interest they, or a close relative, may have with any local firms from which the school may wish to buy goods or services. Common examples are self-employed contractors such as builders or electricians.
A pecuniary interest is any form of renumeration. The school is not forbidden to buy goods and services from the firm but the interest should be declared.
