Posted: April 5, 2023

School Property Matters celebrates 20 years of supporting great estates!

2023 marks the 20th year of operation for School Property Matters (SPM), a Lancashire based business specialising in the collection and analysis of school estate data. Over it’s time in operation SPM has completed over 1060 projects in schools all over the country, including Local Authority clients, individual schools, Single Academy Trusts, special schools and some of the largest Multi Academy Trusts in the country.

Managing Director and Founder, Jeremy Pilgrim had this to say about the most recent milestone:

“20 years ago, when SPM was founded, it was based on the belief that schools deserved the highest quality estate data, and that this data was a crucial tool to support effective management of their estates. Today, that belief is still the central focus for SPM and is at the heart of everything we do. To see how the team has grown and evolved over the last 20 years makes me incredibly proud of all we have achieved. Thank you to everyone who has been a part of SPM over the last 2 decades, here’s to the next 20 years!”

As part of the 20th Anniversary celebrations, SPM will be running a number of different fundraising initiatives throughout 2023, including taking part in this years ‘Tough Mudder’ tournament! The team will be working to help to raise money for a new sensory garden at Highfurlong School, who are working to provide a top quality education for pupils with a wide range of special educational needs based in Blackpool and surrounding areas.
