To support significant campus upgrades using the NSW Government’s State Significant Development Pathway, Scott Warren led a series of projects for leading Sydney private schools to develop and deliver a comprehensive stakeholder, community, customer, government, and media engagement strategy that supported high-value and often contentious campus redevelopments.

A significant pillar of successful public exhibition processes was ensuring community and stakeholder feedback was focused on the relevant projects, not on other aspects of the schools’ operations. This helped minimise negative submissions that would have threatened the project program and budget.

Key interfaces were with neighbouring schools (both private and public), neighbouring residents, school councils, staff and students’ parents.

The scope of work included:

• media management
• content and collateral development
• statutory consultation
• community engagement
• key stakeholder management
• event management.
