Anyone’s child going to Charter East Dulwich in September?


Recommended Posts

My son Alex has got into Charter East , starting in September 2023, when my eldest son started someone organised a lovely welcome picnic in dulwich park over the summer hols, so I am hoping to do the same as it was really helpful for my son and his friends


So I’ll start things off here , and we can form a little WhatsApp group to organise a meet up


Simone , mum to Alex - currently at Bessemer Grange

Yes I believe they have pencilled in for 2nd September? A lot of us mums have agreed we would like to meet earlier in the hols so they kids can have opportunities to swap numbers and hang out before their first day at Charter

I think that the whole purpose of having a picnic in September is that children from waiting list that will get a place during summer time will have a chance to meet everyone. The last big shakedown is in August hence first weekend of September is proposed.

    • Thank you, he's pretty adamant a party wall agreement isn't needed so no chance of getting plans, he's been very cagey about what's being done. I've asked for the specific clause in the Party Wall Act that suggests he doesn't because I'm pretty worried. Is it just the chimney breasts that would fall under the act? He's insisting the others don't count as party walls.
    • Thanks  for the reminder nellie. Have today received two letters dated February 2024. Heading down to Highshore Road tomorrow to see if there's anything for us. I'm getting obsessive about missing/late arriving bills since having our phone and broadband cut off when we hadn't received (so hadn't paid) a bill from BT that had been posted to us. I now keep a note in my diary of when the various utility bills are expected, and phoning them when I think something is due, invariably they say the bill has been sent out. It shouldn't be so hard.
    • He’ll need to apply to building control if he’s removing a chimney breast, as that has to be signed off once the work is done. Make sure the joists for your floor are extended to full width of the room once the chimney breast is removed. Ours weren’t (by the previous owner when they removed the chimney breast in the kitchen) and the floor above was dipping by a few inches. 
    • Chimney breast removal definitely requires party wall agreement and if yours above is not being removed it will require steels to support the chimney breast above.  You should consult your own party wall surveyor and serve notices on your neighbour and they will be liable for the cost of your surveyor.  Also worth contacting the southwark building regs inspector for advice as removing a load bearing wall also requires steels to support the walls above and will require building regs. Has your neighbour shown you the plans to show how they are going to support your walls above?
