Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

NCG procured family learning provision for delivery on behalf of the North East Mayoral Strategic Authority. The requirement covers education and training services, with partner organisations supporting the delivery of family learning. Work is associated with Newcastle upon Tyne, at postcode area NE4 7SA. NCG is the buying organisation. The procurement is classified as education and training services and falls within the broader services category. The awarded supplier group includes further education, local government, community, charitable, inclusion and training, health, sport and foundation organisations, indicating a requirement that can involve coordinated delivery by organisations with different specialisms. The opportunity is therefore relevant to providers of family learning, adult or community education, educational support, community engagement and related training services operating in or able to serve Newcastle upon Tyne.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. It used a selective call-off from the NCG Education Services dynamic purchasing system. The tender submission deadline was 28 January 2026 at 3pm. The estimated procurement value was £683,570, while the award value was £700,000. The contract and award period runs from 1 May 2026 to 30 April 2027. The contract was awarded on 1 May 2026 to nine suppliers: City of Sunderland College trading as Education Partnership North East, Gateshead Council, Centre West (Newcastle), International Centre for Life Trust, Newcastle United Foundation, PRS Inclusion and Training Services Ltd, Riverside Community Health Project, Sport Works Ltd and Triage Central Limited. The procurement was suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises.

This award demonstrates established demand from NCG for family learning delivered through its education services purchasing route. A credible future supplier would need practical capability in education or training delivery, with the ability to support families and engage communities in Newcastle upon Tyne. The awarded group shows that relevant competition can come from colleges, councils, charities, community organisations, social enterprises and specialist training, health or sport providers. Smaller organisations and voluntary, community or social enterprises were considered suitable, so scale alone is not the defining profile. Strong candidates would be able to deliver reliable local provision, work with public-sector partners and contribute a clearly defined family learning specialism. Organisations combining educational expertise with community reach, inclusion experience or established local relationships would be well placed when comparable requirements return.
