Hazlewoods’ corporate finance team has advised The Key Group on its latest acquisition, welcoming TimeTabler into its growing portfolio of management information systems (MIS) offering to schools and MATs.
The firm’s corporate finance team aided the group’s transaction by providing financial due diligence.
TimeTabler, which takes the busywork out of timetable planning by guiding staff through the process, fixing issues automatically, and making timetable recommendations, is used by 2,300 schools globally, of which 1,700 are UK customers.
This acquisition will enable The Key Group to offer “deeply integrated” MIS and timetabling software to secondary schools and MATs, alongside its other platforms including Arbor, ScholarPack and Integris.
Chris Kenyon, CEO of The Key Group, said: “The timetable lies at the heart of the operation of a school – whether a school wants to ensure it delivers a broad and balanced curriculum, support more flexible working or ensure that learning blocks match the pedagogy of a subject – TimeTabler makes it easier for great schools to make a difference.
“With over 40 years experience in Timetabling, we are delighted to welcome the TimeTabler team to The Key Group.”
Daniel Bond, partner at Hazlewoods, added: “We are delighted to have been able to advise The Key Group on a further acquisition as they continue to complement their MIS system with additional integrated features.”
