Dear accessinfo,

Cheque book schools are schools who, traditionally, hold a cheque book in their name with staff as signatories to pay for services and products directly. I am led to believe these schools then send a statement tot he council finance department on a regular basis to show locally authorised expenditure.

EPA stands for Electronic Payment Authorisation.

Yours sincerely,

Hazel Berry
