Master Plan Workshop
ISQ and QIS BGA are excited to announce the Master Plan Workshop. Part of the 2026-2027 Workshop Series.
This workshop is designed to equip school leaders and staff with the knowledge, confidence and practical tools to understand, assess and actively participate in their school's master planning process. Ensuring this important strategic spatial planning document aligns with educational goals, community values and long-term sustainability ambition. Design consultants supporting a school to develop a master plan are welcome to attend the workshops.
To complete the full workshop, full attendance at both sessions is required, with the cost charged for session one covering the complete workshop. Please register separately for each.

Session 1 will help schools:
- Develop a shared understanding of what a School Master Plan is, why it matters, and the value it brings to educational, social and financial outcomes.
- Build awareness of the steps in the process and the roles schools, staff and communities play in successful outcomes.
Session 2 - Friday 5 June
Session 2 will help schools:
- Assess and use a master plan - how to read the document, link it to strategic priorities, budgeting and project briefs.
- Keep the master plan alive - the value of review cycles and aligning evolving opportunities and community needs.
