This timetable presents the key milestones in the planning and budget processes across the calendar year. The Planning Phase commences in March with the announcement of the VC's Strategic Priorities and the development of strategic focus points from each of the members of the VC's Executive. Following the strategic scene setting, the Heads of School will undertake the planning process for School Organisational Unit Plans. Planning in Support Units will follow from the School process.

Organisational Unit plans are completed through the Planning Sharepoint Site.
