Notice Information

Notice Title

Tate Galleries - Tate Kids Creative Game

Notice Description

We are looking for a supplier to produce and deliver a new game for Tate Kids which fits into the existing Tate Kids website and complements our existing offer of games, quizzes, articles and videos. In 2025, alongside a new area for teachers on the Tate website, Tate Kids will be relaunched with an updated look and feel and an updated homepage. As a complementary offer to the Tate Schools area, an updated Tate Kids will solidify our digital offer to the under 12s audience, for their use at home and at school. Most of our users come to Tate Kids seeking games to play and this game will add to our existing portfolio. Though Tate Kids is used by teachers and children in formal education settings, we want this new game to be something that children are interested in playing that prioritises fun over learning. It must include creative expression and digital making, with another potential element of playing or experimenting with the creation, for example - drawing a character and then animating it, or constructing a sculpture by placing objects in a tower, then making it topple over. We'd like to make a game that we can keep adding to in order for it to feel refreshed and updated at regular intervals, and to encourage repeat visits. Your quotation should be submitted by email to procurement@tate.org.uk Responses should be by email by no later than 19th February 2025 at 12:00. Additional information: Please submit any clarification responses and questions to procurement@tate.org.uk by 17:00 on 13 February. Please submit all responses to procurement@tate.org.uk by 12:00 on the 19th February 2025. Any responses received after this time will not be considered.
