Funding through the Student Resource Package

All government school site Trade Training Centres (TTCs) and Australian Technical Colleges (ATCs) are recorded in the department’s Asset Information Management System (AIMS) which facilitates management and maintenance of the sites.

From 2025, TTCs and ATCs registered in AIMS will be fully entitled spaces that:

  • receive Maintenance and Minor Works (MMW) funding through the Student Resource Package (SRP) – School Infrastructure
  • will not be penalised for having excess space, and depending on the school campuses’ capacity may receive additional MMW funding for their overall school campus. This acknowledges that TTCs and ATCs are shared facilities and enrolment can’t be captured in the same way as for other curriculum buildings.

Schools must use their MMW allocation for the ongoing maintenance of facilities. This is vital to prevent asset degradation and potential health and safety issues.

The first payments of the SRP to host schools with registered onsite TTCs and ATC will occur in February 2025.

Host schools can confirm registration with their Planning and Provision Manager.
