Welcome to the Estates and Facilities Toolkit!

In October 2023, we invited school Estates and Facilities teams to take part in a survey to find out what it’s like to be in their shoes day-to-day. We’d like to thank everybody who gave their time to share their thoughts with us!

From these responses, we’ve created our  Estates and Facilities Toolkit – a place where you will be able to find useful information and ideas to help you overcome the most common challenges in school facilities management (FM) at the moment.

We’ll also be sharing the results from the survey with you – scroll down for some top-line stats!

Keep up to date

Over the next few weeks, we’ll be updating this page with more survey insight, useful FM guidance, and more.

Keep your eyes on your inbox – if you’ve subscribed, we’ll email you every time there’s something new to see!
