    Independent school open days Central London, Autumn Term 2012 Most schools have open days this term, whilst others like to arrange individual tours. We recommend parents visit schools and register at least 2 years prior to the intended year date entry. Wetherby School in W1 (boys 7-13yrs) is the only prep school that still requires registration at birth. Pembridge Hall, W2 (girls 4-11yrs) also requires registration prior to the 1st birthday. NB. Radley School, nr Oxford (boys 13-18yrs) is the only senior boarding school that requires registra- tion at birth and places are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis. What do we mean by 4+ or 7+? These age groups are the main intake years (ie 7+ means children will start in the year they are 7 turning 8). The equivalent would be Yr3 - or Juniors - in the state sector. Some open days are only relevant for specific year groups. There may be occasional spaces for children in other year groups so it is always worth asking.

Please find attached a list and a summary of all Educational Establishments in London and NO2 levels based on both the LAEI 2013 update and LAEI 2016. The list has been taken from the register of educational establishments in England and Wales, maintained by the Department for Education, and provides information on establishments providing compulsory, higher and further education.

Glossary 2 City of Westminster Superannuation Fund Annual Report 2012/13 Introduction The Superannuation Fund is part of the national Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS) and is administered by Westminster Council. It is a contributory defined benefit pension scheme established by the Superannuation Act 1972, which provides for the payment of benefits to employees and former employees of the City of Westminster Council and the admitted and scheduled bodies in the Fund. The Fund is funded by contributions from employees, the Council, the admitted and scheduled bodies and returns from the Fund’s investments. The contributions are set by the Fund’s actuary at the actuarial valuation which is carried out every three years. The benefits payable from the Fund are set out in the Local Government Pension Scheme regulations and in summary are: • A guaranteed pension based on final salary and length of service; • Option to take up to 25% of pension as a tax-free lump sum at retirement; • Death and survivor benefits; • Early payment of pensions in the event of ill health; • Pension increases in line with Consumer Price Inflation (CPI). A new LGPS scheme will be introduced with effect from 1st April 2014. This will continue to be a defined benefit scheme, but instead of final salary, it will be a Career Average Revalued Earnings (CARE) scheme, so that a scheme member’s pension will be based on their earnings throughout their career, rather than solely on their final salary.
