About the Department
The role of the Department of Education is to support Victorians to build prosperous, socially engaged, happy and healthy lives. It does this by supporting lifelong learning and healthy development, strengthening families and helping to equip people with the skills and knowledge for a 21st century economy and society.
About the Victorian School Building Authority
The Victorian School Building Authority (VSBA) is part of the Department of Education. Established in 2016, it oversees Victoria's largest school building program since the state introduced free public education in the 1870s.
The VSBA upgrades and expands existing schools and plans, designs and builds new schools to meet enrolment demand. We also support schools to maintain their buildings and grounds by offering expert advice and coordinating maintenance programs and grants.
With Victoria recently introducing two years of funded kindergarten, the VSBA is also working with the early childhood sector on a massive kindergarten construction program.
About the Division
The Strategy and Planning Division is responsible for the VSBA's operating framework, investment strategy, policy setting, asset information management, budget strategy and coordination, along with the delivery of specific school strategies, costings, allocate resources for growth, maintenance, and projects through school application- based programs. The Division also plans and co-ordinates delivery of new early childhood facilities and support for the wider early childhood sector to build, improve and upgrade infrastructure through a number of grants programs, including programs which provide funding to make kindergartens for inclusive for children of all abilities.
The Asset Planning Branch designs and delivers school-level infrastructure strategies, manages a number of school application-based and maintenance funding programs, allocates relocatable buildings to address enrolment growth in existing schools, conducts cost analysis of potential school infrastructure projects, and maintains our asset data and management system for school buildings.
The Information and Reporting Unit (IRU) forms part of the Strategy & Planning Division of VSBA. The unit is responsible for maintaining the asset data in the asset management system for all Victorian government schools. This involves inputting all land and building data (usually received as architectural drawings) from over 1,800 school campus sites in an asset portfolio of approximately $20 billion.
IRU provides a range of reports to support core functions of the VSBA, including providing:
In addition, IRU plays a pivotal role in the calculation of school maintenance funding. We also work closely with principals to provide them with information to support the effective management and maintenance of their assets.
IRU advises on complex data management issues and system migration and provides technical leadership and best practice processes and policies to comply with the Victorian Data Quality Standards.
