can only be used by the Principal, Assistant Principals and me as Business

I have actually been given a refund of the late fee on a number of occasions

Unfortunately we have about 30 teachers who use the Coles cards and I have
enough trouble getting them back without having to let them loose with a
purchasing card.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

credit providers to charge a late fee. I was told only financial

we got a Dept of Education School Purchasing card and we can use it for lots of
other things, not just fuel. Has worked well for us.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
