Provider Audits

Simple. Practical. Verified.

If you operate a school or early childhood centre and are a private education provider or a charitable trust, you are required by law to have your financial statements audited, but you can choose your preferred auditor. There are two types of financial audits for education providers.

Financial audit to comply with NZQA requirements to maintain your NZQA registration and to satisfy Ministry funding requirements.

Student Fee Protection special purpose review. When students pay fees into your Student Fee Trust account, your organisation is required by law to have a review of the trust accounts to protect student funds.
