The education arm of Tomahawk Property

Enabling Australian independent schools to operate more efficiently and grow their enrolments.

  • 9 schools transactions

  • $220 million construction value

  • 6,000 new school places

Tomahawk Education is a leading educational advisory firm providing skills and workplace tools in the areas of finance, campus infrastructure planning and marketing. Essentially, we enable Australian independent schools to operate more efficiently and grow their student enrolments.

In five short years, we have advised on the transformation of six separate greenfield sites into flourishing campuses, providing over 6,000 school places. Additionally, we have advised three institutions on land use and development potential, which totalled capital savings of $130 million.

Over half of the property and project management assignments undertaken by our property arm involve schools and educational institutions. Tomahawk Education complements this with capabilities and workplace tools in financial planning and marketing. We know schools, we know how to implement efficiencies, and can know we can deliver the benefits of our campus master plans.

We are also the developer of Tomahawk Maps, a geo-mapping marketing tool. This assists schools in better understanding their catchment area, and in meeting their enrolment and retention goals with superior marketing and planning.

TOMAHAWK MAPS

The indispensable marketing tool for schools to win and retain students.

Tomahawk Maps is the geo-mapping platform helping schools to better understand their catchment area, with the goal of maximising student enrolments and retention rates.

Across Australia, fee-paying schools are seeking population and demographic information about their catchment areas to locate future students.

That’s where Tomahawk Maps can help. We provide a cost-effective geo-mapping platform that provides the latest information to assist in developing effective marketing campaigns. This information is securely displayed on digital maps, which is customisable with a few mouse clicks.

CAMPUS MASTERPLANNERS

Project master planning and compliance

Tomahawk Education has advised over a dozen schools on land use, master planning and compliance matters, enabling better decision-making for strategic planning.

In the world of ever-changing compliance obligations, Tomahawk Property will provide a compliance audit with respect to your land and buildings. We are experienced in advising clients regarding asbestos and other hazardous materials, ventilation, and environmental concerns, which property owners are required to comply with.

The project master plan is a strategic planning document used for guiding the long-term use of a campus property or precinct. Many schools have requested guidance in developing their master plan, often as a standalone service or part of a wider mandate.

EXPERIENCED PROJECT MANAGERS

Identifying savings, creating efficiencies.

Construction projects involving school campuses are complex, demanding, and require critical day-to-day management and oversight. Campus plans are often agreed upon by a school council and left for the school's Business Manager to pursue and oversee.

A skilled project manager will save you time and money and are often required for major capital works. As project manager for your next capital project, Tomahawk Property will draw on their campus development experience and produce your campus master plan, risk documentation and formulate planning approvals.

By engaging us, you save time for Principals, Business Managers and School staff, allowing them to focus on their already busy workload.
