5.0 Council/School Facility Partnerships Learnings5.1 IntroductionFacility partnerships are increasingly being considered to meet the sporting <strong>and</strong> leisure needs of both thewider community <strong>and</strong> school students. Research from New Zeal<strong>and</strong> <strong>and</strong> internationally demonstrates thatthey can be extraordinarily successful. However, this success in the vast majority of cases comes about fromcareful planning rather than by luck. Partnerships are not like other development propositions <strong>and</strong> must betreated differently in terms of planning, design, development <strong>and</strong> operation.The key considerations from the territorial authority/school facility partnership learning’s section are identifiedin the below box.Key Considerations of the SectionThe majority of partnerships can be envisaged to have four general phases. These are:1. Preliminary strategic planning <strong>and</strong> needs analysis.2. Project planning <strong>and</strong> needs analysis.3. Negotiation detailed project planning <strong>and</strong> design.4. Operation.These general phases can be broken down into further areas where key learnings, which are considered criticalin developing a successful facility partnership, have been identified as follows.• Preliminary <strong>Feasibility</strong> <strong>and</strong> Capital Development Funding (“Capx”) Considerations• Operational Costs (“Opex”) Considerations• Revenue Considerations• Governance <strong>and</strong> Management Considerations• Negotiation, Agreements <strong>and</strong> Documentation Considerations• Full <strong>Feasibility</strong>• Project Management <strong>and</strong> Consultant Appointments• Project Planning <strong>and</strong> Design• Governance Considerations• Management Considerations• Monitoring ConsiderationsThe <strong>Te</strong> <strong>Puke</strong> High School Community <strong>Aquatic</strong> And <strong>Recreation</strong> Facility development, through this feasibilitystudy, has followed the initial one <strong>and</strong> two general phases along with their related components.As the development of the proposed <strong>Te</strong> <strong>Puke</strong> School facilities continues it is recommended that phases three<strong>and</strong> four of the key partnership phases, together with their related components, be followed to enableeffective practise to continue.21
