Beatrice Tate BSF School

The Project

The local authority required a BREEAM Assessment “Excellent” rating of 70% for the Beatrice Tate School in London. This was to comply with the planning consent for the relocation of the existing Beatrice Tate School.

The Solution

Encon Associates were commissioned to complete a BREEAM Education assessment and to provide BREEAM AP (Accredited Professional) services, in order to mitigate the planning conditions and to achieve such a BREEAM high rating of Excellent. Encon Associates provided the BREEAM AP services from the early RIBA stages, in order to establish what was required to meet the high rating and to ensure the target could be achieved. By chairing several additional BREEAM AP meetings, Encon Associates were able to guide the design team to eventually exceed the 70% requirement and achieve an “Excellent” rating of 80.47%.

I have both employed and recommended Encon Associates Ltd for a number of the differing services they are able to provide and without exception, always been extremely satisfied with the cost, timescales and quality of the work produced.

The services in question have consisted of code assessments, BREEAM assessments and various environmental (sound, dust, contaminated land etc) assessments, all of which have been successfully undertaken with uttermost dedication by Glenn and Mark. I would have no hesitation in recommending them on future commissions in the knowledge that they will work with the team to achieve a satisfactory conclusion for the client.
