Is your issue / question how to put multiple partitions on the disk?  Or how 
to allow future rearrangement of partitions as user's needs change.

In general, the answer might be LVM (which I don't use so won't attempt to 
explain how) or maybe simply how to put multiple partitions on a disk?

If you answer those questions, I'm sure somebody will be able to give you good 
advice.

(Aside: You can put multiple partitions on a disk, and they don't all have to 
be part of the standard Linux filesystem hierarchy (e.g., part of /home) -- for 
what I consider good reasons, I have multiple top level directories / 
partitions / mount points (can all be explained) with names like /<user1>, 
/<user2>, ... (vs. /home/<user1>, /home/<user2> ...)
