Strategic Estate Management Designed for the Future of Schools

Warneford Consulting’s team partners with Chief Operating Officers and Directors of Estates to build a strategic, actionable approach that goes beyond the Department for Education’s (DfE) Good Estate Management for Schools (GEMS) standards. By integrating a decarbonisation plan, we’re not only meeting best practices—we’re leading the way in sustainable estate management.

Our process begins with a comprehensive data analysis for each school in your estate, presenting insights through easy-to-read tables, charts, and graphs. This bird’s-eye view highlights key risks and liabilities, setting a solid foundation for proactive planning.

With a clear understanding of your estate’s unique needs, we guide you through interactive scenario planning. Together, we prioritise projects based on your School Condition Allocation, available funding, and reserves, creating a dynamic, rolling five-year capital program that adapts as your trust grows.

Leveraging our ISO 9001-approved procurement route and our network of accredited consultants, contractors, and manufacturers, we ensure seamless, cost-effective project delivery.
