Allocation budget payroll figures in the same tool
Set salary rates per subrole with per-staff overrides and a budget cap for the school year. Spend per teacher and per subject updates as you plan. KL's national figures (2023) show salaries make up 75–80% of school operating cost — too big a line to keep separate from allocation.
Live KPI strip
Budget · spend · delta. Updates as you drag hours around — not afterwards in a spreadsheet.
Per teacher
See each teacher's planned salary for the year based on assigned hours and personal rate.
Per subject
See what a whole subject costs across classes — coordinator decisions become easier.
Subrole rates + override
Rates per subrole (teacher, substitute, pedagogue) with per-staff overrides where it makes sense.
CSV export
Pull the whole budget for auditors, municipal finance or your own management file.
Leadership only
Salary rates are visible only to leadership roles under GDPR Article 9 (Danish DPA 2023). Teachers see their hours, not colleagues' pay.
In the classroom
Negotiate with finance
Show exactly what next year's allocation costs — and which choices push the number up or down.
Spot overload
Teachers over their rate × annual norm pop up red — before the overtime bill arrives.
Independent schools
Keep the link between income per pupil and salary per subject in one view.
For school leadership and for municipal finance
Budget side-by-side removes the glass wall between 'plan' and 'price'. Each time you assign hours, salary spend updates — and you can decide whether extra hours in Year 9B come from a coordinator budget or from cutting optional activities. Hattie (2009/2023) finds teacher time is the most expensive school resource; we make it manageable.
- Cap per school year with a colour-coded KPI strip
- Per-staff override handles expert allowances
- Audit log on every rate change (who, when, why)
The municipality can pull schools' budget pressure as CSV without seeing personally identifiable salary rates. That benchmarks schools and ties steering dialogue to real numbers instead of forecasts.
- Per-school benchmark without personal data
- CSV format matching KL's national key-figure structure (2023)
- Steering dialogue on the same numbers schools see
