Most NDIS providers running school holiday programs are breaking even when they should be turning a margin · the problem is almost never the price

The margin on a holiday program is mostly settled by calls made well ahead of day one, not once participants arrive. This will not fill your program. It walks the whole cost model in order: what your staff really cost, the overhead you carry, and the smallest enrolment count that still pays, each pinned down ahead of any advertising. Getting enrolments in is a marketing problem, and this course does not solve that one.

Is this for you

Built for NDIS providers running school holiday programs who want a margin, not just coverage

This is for you if
  • ✓You run or plan to run NDIS school holiday programs
  • ✓You are not confident your programs are priced or structured to turn a profit
  • ✓You want to understand the cost structure before your next season, not after
  • ✓You want a practical framework you can apply immediately, not a general business course
This is not for you if
  • ×You do not offer or plan to offer school holiday programs
  • ×You are looking for a comprehensive operations program (that is the Operations Bundle or Startup)
  • ×You are not in the NDIS or disability sector (this masterclass is built for that context)
What you get

One video lesson + knowledge check · the full model

The school holiday program model, applied end to end. Work through it before your next season and use it as a working reference during your six months of access.

01

Pricing that covers costs and returns a margin

How to set a program price that accounts for your real cost floor, not a guess. The staffing ratio and overhead calculation that most providers skip until it is too late.

Pricing
02

Staffing ratios: where the margin lives

The ratio decisions that determine whether a school holiday program makes money. How to plan staffing before you confirm participant numbers without overcommitting. How to hold margin as participant numbers change.

Staffing
03

Cost structure: what gets missed

The overhead and absorbed costs that do not show up until the season is done. How to account for them before you open registrations.

Costs
04

Decisions to make before the program starts

The three decisions providers get wrong most often: minimum viable numbers, the pricing floor, and when to cancel rather than run at a loss. How to make them clearly.

Decisions
05

Put the model together end to end

How the full school holiday program model fits together so the same logic holds for any future program you design, not just the one you are planning now.

Framework
The two things that determine your margin

Most providers focus on one and miss the other · usually both

The right cost structure

Knowing your real floor before you set a price

A program priced without a clear cost model runs on hope. The providers who make a margin know their staffing cost, their overhead load, and their minimum viable participant number before they advertise.

The right decisions

Pre-season decisions that protect the margin

The decisions that most providers leave until after the program runs are the ones that determine profit or loss. Making them before you open registrations changes the outcome.

Why trust this

Built from working with NDIS providers on operations and financials every week

NDIS provider operations

Built from patterns, not theory

The cost structure failures and margin decisions covered in this masterclass come directly from working with NDIS providers on their operations and financials. The patterns are consistent across provider sizes and program types.

A practical operating model

A reusable model, not a one-off fix

The course structures the school holiday program model so the same logic applies to any future program you design. You are not learning a workaround. You are learning a method.

Why this masterclass
A school holiday program that should turn a margin but only breaks even is almost never a price problem · it is a cost model problem

"I built this masterclass because the same cost structure problem comes up again and again with NDIS providers running school holiday programs. They are running programs that should turn a margin but are not, and the fix is almost always in the cost model and the decisions made before the season starts, not after. This lesson covers the full model. It is practical, it is focused, and it applies directly to the programs you are planning."

A provider we did this with
“Their thorough understanding of the NDIS procedures was evident in how they navigated me through my plan application and structure of our skill-based programs. What really impressed me was their dedication to ensuring that I received the support and resources.”
