St Lawrence Church of England Primary School
Encon Associates were commissioned by the Governors of St Lawrence Church of England Primary School via the architect YMD Boon Ltd to produce an Energy Statement in support of their application to extend the school.
YMD Boon design provided St Lawrence CE School with modern and specialised facilities at the school. Previously the school ran a playgroup at the local village hall for half day only. This scheme brought the service into the school for the full school day, improving access to the local community. The works provided improvements to existing accomodation, disabled access into and around the school, and general storage. Encon Associates provided the necessary Energy Statement to complement this project.

The Solution
Energy Statements are a planning requirement and should be included with all applications.
Encon Associates prepared the statement as requested by Stratford-on-Avon District Council. It was produced in accordance with the Supplementary Planning Document “Sustainable Low-Carbon Buildings” in order to satisfy the requirements of the Authority towards encouraging sustainable design for all proposed construction works within their jurisdiction.

Encon Associates were employed by ourselves as BREEAM Assessor and Approved Professional on 3 contracts running concurrently in Sheffield. At all times through the project they were able to provide clear detailed advice on requirements to ourselves and our supply chain, and were able to offer additional services where required (including compiling the Tenant Green Guide Specification).
The use of the IES TaP for BREEAM portal has proved a useful tool in tracking the BREEAM process, providing us as a main contractor a simple and user friendly way to co-ordinate the BREEAM evidence requirements with the designers and our supply chain.
The team have promptly assessed evidence when received and provided detailed feedback to ensure any compliance issues were understood – we would have no hesitation in employing Encon Associates on our future BREEAM schemes.
