INTRODUCTION

The Children Services Building Network brings together local authorities and property professionals with the aim of promoting excellence in the design, procurement and asset management of school buildings.

There are a series of regional events, usually at new or recently refurbished schools, with presentations on a wide range of topics. The Network is supported by Partnerships for Schools, who participate in the events.”

 An annual subscription entitles members to send up to four delegates to the regional meetings organised per annum. Attendance can alternatively be by payment per event. For more information, please contact pillar@saqnet.co.uk.
