Abstract

This paper examines the use of the contractor's basis of valuation in rating assessment. It is often assumed that this involves the application of a simple, straightforward valuation model, but the practising valuer soon realises that the contractor's basis is more complex and contentious than it appears. It has been criticised for its alleged anomalies and vagaries, and it has been the subject of numerous Lands Tribunal and Court of Appeal decisions. The various ‘stages’ of a contractor's valuation model are discussed in detail against the background of the leading decisions and the manner in which the Court and the Tribunal have grasped the problems presented, including, inter alia, the university and public schools cases of the 1960s, Lord Denning's important decision in Cardiff Corporation v Williams (V.O.), and the recent dispute involving Imperial College of Science and Technology. After close examination of the stages, it is concluded that the guidelines which have gradually evolved now present the valuer with substantial rationale.

Abstract

The point that I wish to make is that we must be constantly aware of Shakespeare's “whining school-boy”, employ our pedagogy in the framework of its power, and be very humble while preaching our ideas, hoping to find the right way to bring a smile to the faces of our children. It is in this context that I wish to suggest a theatrical framework for teacher training, that is to say – theatrical representations of teaching as performance.
