    PRETTY GRADE II LISTED COTTAGE SITUATED AT THE FOOT OF THE SOUTH DOWNS duncton cottage, duncton, west sussex, gu28 0lt Period charm in a downland setting Delightful period cottage with original features throughout w kitchen with utility room and larder w sitting room w dining room w two cellars w four bedrooms w family bathroom w beautiful landscaped gardens w studio/workshop and garage Description Duncton Cottage is accessed via a private driveway into a generous gravelled parking area to the north with a path leading to the house. Built, we understand, in around 1650 with later additions in the 19th and 20th centuries. The property is arranged over two floors with the principal access to the ground floor being on the eastern side of the property. In practice, an entrance on the south side into a boot room then into the kitchen beyond tends to be used on a more regular basis (an alternative entrance is located on the northern side of the house providing direct access from the driveway). The traditional family kitchen features a gas and electric fired range cooker and leads to a utility room located to the rear of the house. The remainder of the ground floor features two charming reception rooms in the form of a dining room and a sitting room with inglenook fireplace housing a log burner. There is a large storage area, cellar and walk in larder. To the first floor are four double bedrooms, a family bathroom and separate WC. Of particular note are the two bedrooms to the rear of the property which both enjoy enchanting views over the garden and the South Downs.

I have dealt with your request for data under the Freedom of Information (FOI) Act 2000. You asked: …Could you please provide me with the names of all Independent Schools who have to date notified Teachers’ Pensions of their intention to withdraw from the Teachers’ Pension Scheme (TPS). Following clarification of the timeframe for which the data is required, the current list of independent schools that have given formal notification to leave the TPS since 1 September 2018 is set out in the annex. The table contains the names of the schools and each school’s departmental establishment code which is the code used by both the department and Teachers’ Pensions (TP) in administering the TPS on behalf of the department. You can use the establishment code to find information about the schools, including their location and contact details at https://get-information- schools.service.gov.uk/. You further clarified your request to provide the names of the schools who “are in the course of consultation with staff”. Any staff consultation would precede the notification to TP that they intend to leave the scheme. Schools are not required to notify either TP or the department about the details and timing of any consultation they may be undertaking, therefore the department does not hold this information.
