Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Department for Education procured main construction works for the Anglo European School. The requirement is classified as construction work for school buildings (CPV 45214200) and falls within the works category. Delivery locations cover the nine English regions: North East, North West, Yorkshire and the Humber, East Midlands, West Midlands, East of England, London, South East and South West. This indicates a geographically broad requirement for education-sector construction rather than a single small local building job. The work is intended to provide or develop school buildings, so relevant businesses are main contractors and construction specialists with experience delivering complex school or public-sector building projects across England. The named buying organisation is the Department for Education, based in London.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. Bids were due by 20 May 2026 at 5pm, and the contract was awarded on 27 May 2026. Kier Construction was selected for the contract at £53,313,769.34 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract period runs from 27 June 2026 to 11 January 2030. The published estimated tender value and awarded value are the same. The opportunity was not divided into separately reported lots. The requirement was assessed as unsuitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises. The award is active, and the tender status is complete.

This award shows substantial, recurring demand from the Department for Education for major school construction delivered through a framework call-off. A credible future competitor would need to be an established main construction contractor able to manage a large, multi-year education building programme across several English regions. Relevant strengths include delivering school buildings safely and to public-sector standards, coordinating design and construction teams, managing complex sites, and controlling programme, cost and quality at scale. The procurement was marked as unsuitable for SMEs and VCSEs, so the evidence points towards a large organisation or a consortium with comparable capacity, financial resilience and nationwide delivery capability. Businesses already qualified on the relevant framework, with a strong education-sector portfolio and robust supply-chain management, are the closest fit.
