WHY YOUR SCHOOL NEEDS A CONDITION SURVEY?

A condition survey is an essential inspection of your school estate, helping you:

  • Stay compliant with DfE, ESFA and Higher Education funding body requirements

  • Strengthen CIF, SCA and university/college capital funding applications

  • Meet health and safety responsibilities (RAAC, fire safety, Building Safety Act)

  • Reduce long-term costs through planned maintenance

AMS Surveys delivers reports aligned with DfE’s Good Estate Management for Schools (GEMS) guidance and RICS standards, giving school leaders, governors and trust boards the evidence they need to make informed decisions.
