Educational providers compete on reputation, enrolment stability and the quality of the learning environment. Strategic facilities management ensures assets remain future‑ready without compromising educational performance.

Facilities issues at a school aren't abstract. They affect the students and staff who are there every single day.

A commitment to protecting the health, safety, and wellbeing of your staff and students.

Our ISO 9001, 14001, and 45001 certified systems set the standard our facilities support runs on.

FAQs

A few questions that come up around property and facilities.

Does PlaceHQ work with schools of all sizes, or just large campuses?

Both. PlaceHQ works with single schools and with education providers managing a small number of campuses. Either way, the same approach applies: independent visibility into where your facilities operation stands, then coordinated repairs, maintenance, compliance, and cleaning.

Our school already has a facilities manager. Is PlaceHQ still relevant?

Yes. PlaceHQ augments your in-house team rather than replacing it, and we don't place facilities staff. What we add is independent governance, benchmarking, and oversight of the function — which an in-house team can't provide for itself, however capable it is. Where facilities management sits with a Business Manager or Bursar alongside other responsibilities, the same approach applies; only the depth of the engagement changes.

Can work be scheduled around term breaks and school hours?

Yes. Repairs, maintenance, and deep cleans can be scheduled after-hours or during term breaks, so facilities work never disrupts the school day.

What's included in facilities support for schools?

PlaceHQ's education offer covers the FM Maturity Assessment — a tool for assessing FM performance for Principals and School Councils — Commercial Facilities Repair & Maintenance through a 24/7 remote helpdesk and CMMS portal, security-cleared Commercial Cleaning, and compliance tracking, all coordinated through one team. Targeted training attaches as the next layer once ready. See our FM Maturity Assessment, Facilities Maintenance, and Commercial Cleaning pages for full detail.
