Infrastructure sector forums
The infrastructure sector forums are an opportunity for school representatives and the Ministry to share information on school infrastructure – property, transport, ICT and technology in schools.
The topics for the forum that cover are:
- mould management and prevention
- school transport reminders
- digitisation of school-led project forms
- building warrants of fitness (BWoF)
- property updates
- upcoming Te Rito webinars.
Email hangangamatihiko.engagement@education.govt.nz if there is a topic that you'd like to discuss at a future forum, or if you would like to submit a question prior to the session.
Topics and discussions at forums will be at sector-wide level. For any questions about infrastructure matters at an individual school level, please contact your property advisor.

Introduction to school property management module
School principals and board members should complete this module to understand their responsibilities regarding school property. This module allows users to access it multiple times, whenever they need to refresh their knowledge.
This module is intended to supplement the face-to-face sessions run by Ministry staff. These sessions will still occur, with the module being an additional supporting resource. There is work underway to produce further modules regarding specific school property topics.
School property procurement framework self-paced module
Project managers engaged to deliver the 5YA and/or school property projects must complete the school property procurement framework module.
The school property procurement framework module has been developed to provide project managers with an introduction to the principles that are to be applied and the rules, process and templates to be used when conducting school property related procurements. The module also includes an assessment of 15 multi-choice questions, for which project managers are required to achieve a minimum 80% (12/15) pass.
Consultant briefings
We hold regional consultant briefings at regular intervals during the year. These briefings are aimed at project managers who undertake school property planning and building projects and need to be kept updated on Ministry policy.
For more information, contact the property team at your local Ministry office.
