Property advice
The DWD team have extensive experience in working with education providers, trusts and charitable boards to provide valuation advice on educational buildings. We work with clients throughout the life of the education estate from advice on lettings of school buildings to maximise potential income, through to disposal advice on surplus assets to achieve the highest return.
Business rates
There are a number of opportunities for education providers and landlords to mitigate business rate liabilities on educational establishments. We work with clients to advise on rating and minimise the impact of their liabilities.
Planning
We provide planning services to a wide variety of educational clients including, schools and colleges. We advise educational establishments on the potential to unlock the value of their assets to assist funding improvements. This involves formulating clear planning strategies to deliver, for example, enabling development and new facilities on sensitive sites within the Green Belt, conservation areas and sites containing Listed Buildings.
We assemble a full design team including architects, transport, heritage, landscape and other consultants to provide a robust and comprehensive planning application for our clients. Our approach is to engage proactively with the local planning authority and key stakeholders to support local decisions and we help run public consultation and exhibitions where necessary.
