What Makes Us Specialists in Educational Environments?

Schools, childcare centres and training facilities have unique maintenance and compliance requirements that set them apart from standard commercial buildings. MTS Group has the experience, clearances and specialist knowledge to work effectively in these environments. For ongoing site care between major projects, we layer on our facilities maintenance programs.

We understand the term calendar and the pressure to complete works within narrow holiday windows. Our team is sized to mobilise quickly, work efficiently and deliver on time — so that when students return, their facilities are fresh, safe and ready.

All staff working in educational settings hold current Working with Children Checks. We provide full contractor induction documentation, SWMS and site safety plans as required by your school or facility management. Our specialist education team brings dedicated experience to every campus we work on.

How Do We Schedule Work Around Your Term Calendar?

The NSW school year provides four holiday windows — and for most educational facilities, these are the only times major works can be completed without disrupting learning. That means every day of the holidays counts. We work with Lake Macquarie schools across all four breaks.

MTS Group's educational projects are planned well in advance, materials are pre-ordered, and teams are pre-allocated so we can mobilise on Day 1 of the break and complete on time — every time.

Term 1 Break (April)
External painting, playground inspections, drainage and grounds works
Term 2 Break (July)
Classroom refurbishments, flooring, electrical and lighting upgrades
Term 3 Break (September)
Bathroom upgrades, roof and gutter maintenance, fencing works
Summer Break (December–January)
Major refurbishments, building additions, full classroom overhauls

How Do We Handle Compliance for Schools?

Educational facilities are heavily regulated. MTS Group ensures every project meets current legislative and standards requirements — protecting your students, staff and organisation. Outdoor and play spaces are covered separately by our grounds maintenance contracts.

Working with Children Checks

All MTS Group personnel hold current WWCC clearances as required under the Child Protection (Working with Children) Act 2012 (NSW).

Playground Safety (AS 4685)

All playground works comply with Australian Standard AS 4685, including fall height calculations, impact attenuation and equipment specification.

National Quality Framework

Works at childcare and early education facilities are assessed for compliance with the Education and Care Services National Regulations and NQF requirements.

Fire Safety & Essential Services

All educational buildings require current fire safety statements and essential services compliance. We coordinate inspections and certifications.

BCA & Accessibility

Building Code of Australia requirements and DDA accessibility obligations are assessed and incorporated into all facility upgrade projects — handled by our commercial fit-out projects team.

WHS Documentation

We provide Safe Work Method Statements, site induction records and incident management procedures for all works in educational settings.

What Our Clients Say

5.0 rating from 18 Google Reviews

"We recently had Multi Trade Services Group complete a full bathroom and kitchen renovation for us and we couldn't be happier with the results. The workmanship is outstanding — the kitchen cabinetry, stone benchtops and finishes are flawless, and the bathroom layout, tiling and fixtures were installed to an extremely high standard."
