Overview

The School Evaluation of Physical Environment (SEPE) is a survey completed by schools to help inform decisions about improvements to their physical environments. In particular, it is focused on the fitness for purpose of Ministry assets.

SEPE works by asking schools to describe their education vision and daily practice, and then assess how well their buildings and site support them.

SEPE will help prioritise property projects and ensure a school’s Five-Year Agreement funding (5YA) is spent effectively. The new application will be rolled out to schools as part of their 10YPP process from August/September 2021.

SEPE access is controlled by the Education Sector Logon (ESL) and within the asset management system there are also levels of access according to the user's needs and roles within the system.

Who should be using SEPE

Principals and School Administrators.
