Queensland Schools PPP Program
The Queensland Schools public-private partnership is at the cornerstone of the Queensland Government’s Strategic Plan for education in Queensland and plays a key role in meeting the unprecedented demand for education in the State.
The project has seen new schools delivered at Pimpama, Burpengary, Pallara, Ripley Valley, Springfield West, Griffin, Bellbird Park, Caboolture and Redbank Plains over five years.
The PPP financed, designed, constructed, commissioned 10 new schools over a five-year delivery period, and now provides facilities management services for the schools for a further 25 years.
SCGroup was responsible for the identification, due-diligence and acquisition negotiation of a three of the sites required for the delivery of the project where Education Queensland did not have appropriate real estate assets secured to enable on time delivery of the program and avoid significant liquidated damages for the State.
