S4L Launches 2025 Facilities and Construction Brief Survey

Spaces4Learning recently launched its 2025 Facilities and Construction Brief Survey, which gathers information on K–12 and higher education construction projects nationwide from the previous year. The data we get from you, our readers, forms an industry report offering an overview of current trends in school facilities. The 2025 Facilities and Construction Brief will be featured in the fall 2025 print issue of Spaces4Learning, as well as online.

The survey consists of ten questions, among them:

  • Did you complete any construction projects in 2024?
  • Have you completed or will you complete any construction projects in 2025?
  • What is your opinion on the funds available for construction compared to last year?
  • What trends do you anticipate will impact education facilities the most in the coming year?

The 2024 Facilities & Construction Brief is available here, and the 2023 edition here.

The 2025 survey is available here. Respondents will be entered for the chance to win a $100 Amazon gift card.
