2 Section 1: RMP Performance Measures The performance measures are set on the project depending on the level that the RE component has been scoped: Basic, Enhanced or Stretched. Table 1: RMP Performance Measures Components highlighted in grey have been scoped out of this project. Reducing materials consumption 1 Level Basic Enhanced Stretched Metric Tonnes/100m 2 GIFA Target 3.2 Reducing wastage % waste diverted from landfill > 80 Increasing reuse and recycled content % recycled aggregate content by weight > 25 Matching the durability and lifespan of assets to service life Using resources with no scarcity and source security issues % possible BREEAM score > 36 Using products with lower embodied carbon % materials sourced within 25 miles by value 30 Using products with lower embodied water Reducing energy use during construction Reducing water use during construction Enabling water efficiency in use kwh 10,000 % improvement compared to notional baseline project > 36 Energy Performance Rating (EPRnc) > 0.36 Enabling energy efficiency in use % reduction in CO 2 emissions > 25 Enabling reuse and recyclability at end of life Use local labour wherever possible 2 Number of local people employed on site by contractor (new starts only) 25 1 Where a row is shaded grey, the RE component has not been selected for action on this project. 2 Additional RE component added by the client.

3 Section 2: RMP Action Plan Design for Resource Efficiency workshop 30/09/13 Completion of Sustainability Strategy 30/11/13 (end of RIBA 2013 Stage 2, Concept Design) Update Sustainability Strategy 31/03/14 (end of RIBA 2013 Stage 3, Developed Design) Finalise Sustainability Strategy; include sustainability information on drawings and specification 31/07/14 (end of RIBA 2013 Stage 4, Technical Design) Start of construction 01/08/14 Completion of construction 31/07/16 Opening of new school 05/09/16 Section 3: Designer Actions For each RE component, actions have been identified to improve performance depending on the level which it has been scoped into the RMP. The actions for the RE components scoped as basic or enhanced have been recorded with reference to the expected cost, the documentation/evidence of how the action is incorporated in design and the impact of the action on the RE components scoped into the RMP. Shown below:
