It’s such an important decision. If you have school
age children, you’ll naturally want to know as much as
possible about the quality and accessibility of schools
in the area. That’s why we’ve brought together all the
essential information, including performance data
compared with national averages, for schools nearby (for
more details of a specific school’s performance, simply
visit ofsted.gov.uk and click on ‘inspection reports’).
Then when you do apply, make sure you do it well in
advance – as far ahead as the Autumn Term a year before
your child is due to start.
Getting the results
Secondary schools generally send out letters on 1st March.
The dates for primary schools vary, so check with the local
authority – the details for this particular property are:
Town Hall, Bath Road, Slough, Berkshire, SL1 3UQ
Applying for a place
Once you’ve chosen your preferred primary or secondary
schools it’s important to look at the admissions criteria,
as they can differ from school to school. If the one you’ve
chosen is popular, it’ll give you an idea of how likely you
are to get a place there.
Appealing against a decision
Occasionally schools don’t have enough places for the
number of applications; if that’s the case at your preferred
school, you still have a legal right to appeal.

YOUR GREEN GUIDE
We can all benefit from being environmentally-friendly… not to mention saving you a small
fortune over the course of a year. Here you’ll find a variety of information about the local
environment for this particular property, and its energy efficiency.
It’s up to all of us to make a difference. Whether
it’s recycling with the help of the local authority
or using an alternative energy source, it’s easy
for everyone to do their bit (for information on
anything from environmental health to pollution
and recycling, the local authority’s website
should help).
It’s also important to know whether or not your potential
new home is at risk of being flooded, so we’ve included info
on that too. And finally, you’ll see just how energy-efficient
this particular property is – together with a few suggestions
as to how it can be improved.
Recycling at home
Easy to do and resulting in less waste being sent to landfill,
recycling is actively encouraged by the local council. They’ll
be able to provide you with recycling bins and boxes, a
timetable of kerbside collection dates and more. Here are
the details for contacting them, and of the nearest recycling
centre.
Recycling naturally
Other useful ways of recycling include composting food
waste and reducing water usage by fitting a water butt to

Slough, Buckinghamshire, SL1 3TN
downpipes. Many local authorities have special schemes
(including discounted products) to encourage both – just
call them for details.
Water meters
Another way to save water is by having a water meter –
which can cut bills by as much as £200! The general rule
is if there are more bedrooms than people in a house, it’s
worth having one; alternatively, the local water company
can provide a ‘calculator’ to help work out how much
might be saved in a particular property.
Alternative energy
With 40% of Europe’s wind energy flowing over Britain,
it could be worth fitting a domestic wind turbine. It’s one
of the greenest sources of energy available, and through
feed-in tariffs you get paid for any energy you generate
even if you use it. What you don’t use can be exported
to the local grid (you get paid for that too!) – and you can
store energy in batteries for when there is no wind.
The Energy Saving Trust estimates you need an annual
average wind speed of 6m/s or more to make a turbine
worthwhile, with no major obstacles nearby (such as
buildings, trees or hills) to reduce the speed or cause
turbulence.
The average wind speed for this area is 3.9 m/s
Energy Performance Certificate
The Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) is designed to
help people understand a home’s energy efficiency and
its impact on the environment. It uses a similar rating
system (A to G, A being most energy efficient) to that
seen on household appliances, windows and even cars. A
qualified energy assessor creates the EPC, which shows
the home’s current rating and some recommendations.
Every property marketed for sale or rent has an EPC,
which is always accompanied by a report listing
various recommendations together with the potential
improvements to the building’s energy rating.
FLOOD RISK MAP FOR THE PROPERTY
Crown Copyright. All Rights Reserved Licence Number: 100035207
Flood risk
Definitions
According to the Environment Agency, millions of people
in the UK live in areas at risk of flooding – so it’s worth
knowing in advance about the home you’re looking at.
That’s why we’ve included a flood risk map for the area,
together with an explanation.
A Zone 2 floodplain has an annual probability of flooding
of between 1 in 1000 (0.1%) and 1% from rivers and
0.5% from the sea. A Zone 3 floodplain’s annual
probability is 1 in 100 (1%) or greater from rivers and 1 in
200 (0.5%) from the sea. If available, the highest known
flood level may be shown.
The Environment Agency’s river and tidal flood data
shows there are no floodplains within 50m of the site,
and it’s not located within 50m of an area benefitting
from flood defences.
Other types of flooding can affect properties
– for details on getting a full flood report,
contact The Property Intelligence People.

If you’re looking at making changes to your new home such as an
extension or conversion, you may well need planning permission.
But submitting an application is easier than you think. You can get
all the advice you need from your local council, who’ll consider
applications in line with the local development plan.
They’ll be looking at such things as:
• Number, size, layout, siting, external appearance of buildings
• Proposed access
• Landscaping and how it affects the local neighbourhood
• The availability of services, such as roads and water supply
Types of planning application
Outline
For new buildings, this will tell you if the development is
acceptable in principle. Detailed drawings aren’t needed, but
it’ll help if you can give the council as much detail as possible.
Reserved Matters
These comprise siting, design, external appearance, means of
access and landscaping. What you propose must be consistent
with the outline permission, if not you may need to reapply.
Full
A full planning application requires the submission of all details
of the proposal and is appropriate if you wish to change the use.

Note. An Exact match is one where the property has been located within one metre of it’s central position.
A proximity match is where and exact match could not be made. This may be for several reasons such as an incomplete postal address, a new
build having yet been allocated a postal address by Royal Mail or a large project – eg: a road or major property development covering a large land
area that we cannot give exact location to.
The Planning Applications section of this report contains data under licence from Emap Glenigan. Emap Glenigan is the largest provider of planning
data in the UK. The company has been collecting and processing data since 1973. Emap Glenigan tracks applications from the initial planning
and tender through to contracts awarded. This Planning Report contains the most up to date commercially available information on planning
applications made in the vicinity of the subject property over the last 10 years. Please note that the location of the project applications (exact) relates
to a point within the development, and does not represent the nearest border. The location of the project applications (proximity) is estimated from
the site address details and should not be considered as an accurate representation of the project’s location.
Please note that due to differing methodologies adopted by Local Authorities, some planning applications identified as having been Wwithin this
report which would have a bearing on a purchaser’s decision if they were to have been granted, you are advised to seek further clarification from
the Local Authority on the applications status.
While GroundSure makes every effort to ensure that data is sourced from reliable providers, it is unable to ensure that the information is accurate,
complete or up to date. Therefore, if the existence or absence of an application for or grant of planning permission will have material effect on any
decision to purchase land, GroundSure advises that a specific enquiry should be made to the local authority.

Take care!
It is important that you take care when moving into your
new home. You will probably need to carry several items
during the move, which, if done incorrectly, can cause
injury. The golden rules of manual handling are:
• Assess the weights of the items before lifting them
• Lift within your capabilities; split or share the load if
you need to
• Plan your route, remove obstructions and avoid any
obstacles
• Wear suitable footwear and gloves if necessary
• When you start to lift use your legs not your back;
imagine yourself as a hoist, not a crane
• If necessary, carry for a short distance and then stop
to rest before you restart
Off to pastures new?
No two people move for exactly the same
reason, no two moves are identical.
So as well as using the experience of more
than 20 years in agency, we come to every
move with fresh ears, listening carefully to
what makes you and your plans different.
Because it’s only by treating all of our
customers as individuals that we get the right
result for them.
