From November 2024, the technology used for the EFSG 1.0 website is scheduled for end-of-life. As a result, the word search bar in the top right-hand corner and the Contact Us form will no longer be available. The content and layout of the website will remain the same.

This legacy EFSG website has been superseded by two new EFSG websites:
Education Facilities and Standards Guidelines (EFSG): education.nsw.gov.au/about-us/efsg
Technical Standards: education.nsw.gov.au/technical-standards
The new Education Facilities and Standards Guidelines and Technical Standards websites now feature a fresh look and feel, showcasing information on how and why schools are designed best to deliver teaching and learning.
The websites provide new content communicating School Infrastructure NSW’s standardised design approach, supporting our industry partners to implement standard hub layouts in new and upgraded schools. The websites are now mobile-responsive, making it easier for our delivery partners to access key technical information while attending site visits.
Design guide and specification guide content has been simplified and merged according to Australian Standards numbering, helping our industry partners and other website users to locate targeted information to answer their questions about designing, building and maintaining schools.
Industry partners will have access to the full range of technical and performance requirements, to support them when providing professional services on School Infrastructure NSW school projects.
