Summary of the contracting process

East Riding of Yorkshire Council procured face-to-face secondary education tuition for a male Year 11 student entering September. The requirement is for 10 hours of tuition, delivered to a student currently living in a residential setting in Hull. The student has an Education, Health and Care Plan and complex social, emotional and mental health needs. A three-to-one staffing arrangement is required under a Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards order. The service falls within secondary education services and is classified under CPV 80200000. This is a specialist education support service rather than a standard classroom teaching requirement, with delivery focused on an individual learner whose safeguarding, behavioural and educational needs require close supervision. The buying organisation is East Riding of Yorkshire Council, based in Beverley.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded through an open procedure. The submission deadline was 31 July 2026 at 08:30. East Riding of Yorkshire Council awarded the contract to Tradewind on 31 July 2026 for £1,500. The awarded contract period runs from 31 July to 23 October 2026. The procurement was identified as a services opportunity and was suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The underlying requirement was for tuition to begin as soon as possible, with the tender description referring to 10 hours of face-to-face provision. No lots or separate awards were used. The recorded tender period and planned contract period indicated activity around the start of the 2026-27 school year, while the award record sets the operative awarded period through October 2026.

For a future requirement of this type, credible suppliers would need to provide qualified secondary-level tutors able to deliver individual face-to-face tuition to a Year 11 learner. Relevant capability includes supporting pupils with Education, Health and Care Plans and complex social, emotional and mental health needs, particularly in residential or other non-school settings. Providers should be able to work within safeguarding arrangements and a three-to-one staffing model where a Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards order applies. The requirement suits smaller specialist education providers as well as larger tutoring organisations with access to appropriately experienced staff. Evidence of reliable mobilisation, close supervision, individualised lesson planning, communication with the council and residential setting, and the ability to maintain safe, consistent provision would strengthen a competitor’s position when this buyer next requires comparable tuition.
