Terms and Conditions of Hire

For annual or continuous bookings, a deposit of two months of the total annual charge will be made to secure booking; this will be returnable less any outstanding costs on termination of the booking.  Invoicing will be monthly in advance. Four weeks’ notice is required for cancellation of an annual or continuous contract.  During the first two months one week’s notice of cancellation may be given by either party.  In the event of cancellation under this clause no refund of either deposit or rental will be due.

2.
For one-off or short period bookings, a deposit of 20% of the booking charge will be made to secure the booking. 

3.
The premises shall be left clean and in good order and vacated not later than the time booked.  The hirer shall reimburse any costs incurred by the School in cleaning the premises after the hiring necessary to ensure that the premises are sufficiently clean for normal use by the School.  

4.
The hirer shall pay to the School the cost of repair or replacement resulting in any damage arising from the hiring however caused or of whatever nature to the school premises and all equipment or property thereon.  Hirers shall ensure they have a policy of insurance to cover such liability up to at least £2 million and public liability insurance of £5 million. The School can arrange insurance for an additional fee.

Any overrun past the agreed booking time will result in a surcharge equal to one hour’s additional booking fee for each hour or part thereof.

A hirer must not sub-let to another party.

a) No intoxicating liquor will be brought on to or consumed on the premises except as a function organised by a body or bodies which the Governors of the school shall have approved.  Requests for approval must be made in writing.

a) In the case of lettings for music, singing, dancing or stage plays, the entertainment must be for a closed organisation such as a society or club or by invitation only.  All other entertainments are classified as public entertainments, in which case there exists a statutory requirement that the School must be properly licensed.

Hirers will have access only to the particular room(s) let to them, including where it is practicable the use of toilet accommodation.  Access is not permitted to any other part of the premises.

School functions will take precedence over lettings, sometimes at short notice. In the event that the hired area is not available to let on a particular occasion, due to school use, the School will make reasonable efforts to provide a suitable alternative location or dates.  If no alternative is available a refund of the letting fee will be made, but no liability for further or consequential loss will be accepted by The School.
