Due to the confidential nature of School Infrastructure (SINSW) Planning projects, specific details including the name and location of this project cannot be published. The scope for SINSW Planning Project 3 included the refurbishment and expansion of the existing Public School’s core facilities and provision of increased permanent teaching spaces. The project objective is to increase the school’s capacity to 1000 students through a staged construction program to correspond with the projections of increased student demand in the School’s catchment.
Planix Projects were engaged to lead the consultant team through Master planning Phase to develop the Strategic Business Case. The Strategic Business Case has been submitted to NSW Treasury for approval for funding to proceed to Concept design Phase and Final Business Case.
Key components of the project scope were as follows:
• Design for two project stages to correspond with the future projections in student demand
• Removal of existing permanent teaching spaces
• Create 44 new permanent teaching spaces and Core 35 facilities
