Notice Information

Notice Title

Adult Education Budget (AEB)

Notice Description

London's indicative Adult Education Budget (AEB) is PS311m per year although the final amount being delegated will only be confirmed by Department for Education (DFE) in early 2019. This contract notice relates to the procurement by the Greater London Authority (GLA) of adult education and training services, expected to result in the award of multiple contracts for services, amounting to an estimated total value of approximately PS130m. However, this value could go up to PS200m over four years, subject to the final AEB allocation to GLA confirmed by DFE. Successful providers will enter into individual contracts to deliver a range of education and training services to both in-work and out of work London residents aged 19 or above, to help them gain qualifications, progress into further education and ultimately access and sustain employment.
