Summary of the contracting process

Hull City Council has completed a procurement process titled "SEND Sufficiency - Resource Base and SEN Units - High Needs Funding" for special education services under the CPV code 80340000. The contract, worth £2,280,000, was awarded via a direct award method, following Government Guidance. This initiative aims to provide special educational needs (SEN) units and resource bases in line with the High Needs Funding Operational Guidance. Contracts are set to commence on 1st September 2024 and will run until 31st August 2026, with an option for three additional 12-month extensions. The services will be delivered in various locations, including the British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, Rest of the World, and within the UK.

Schools and educational organisations with a track record in providing SEN services and managing high needs funding are particularly well-placed to compete. Given the scope and potential for contract extensions, it presents a stable and extended revenue stream. Large educational trusts, as indicated by the multiple suppliers awarded, have clearly shown that substantial, capable organisations are necessary to meet the demanding requirements of this contract. This procurement process reinforces Hull City Council's commitment to enhancing support structures for children with special educational needs.

Notice Title

SEND Sufficiency - Resource Base and SEN Units - High Needs Funding

Notice Description

Hull City Council (The Authority) has entered into Service Level Agreements to provide provision of SEN Units/Resource Bases at levels in line with the latest requirements stated by the 'High Needs Funding Operational Guidance', which is published annually by the Education & Skills Funding Agency. The agreements were awarded on a direct award basis as per Government Guidance. The contract is anticipated to commence 1st September 2024 ending by 31st August 2026 with an option to extend for a period or periods of 12 months not to exceed 36 months in total. The Authority has estimated the value of the services to be PS2,280,000 overall. The placement cost for each Child is PS10,000 agreed by the school/trust. The Educational Healthcare Plan of each individual child or young person is dependent on the individual needs of the child or young person therefore their pupil premium level may be funded differently in each circumstance. For the avoidance of doubt, the estimated contract value may increase depending on the needs of the child or young person.
