The build-to-maturity programme proceeds in three phases: establish and open the campus (Years 1–3), ramp enrolment to break-even and expand facilities (Years 3–5), and fill to capacity, reach steady-state margins and prepare for exit (Years 5–15). The Gantt chart below sets out the critical milestones, timelines and dependencies.
