Notice Title
National Leaders of Education Reform
Notice Description
The purpose of this market engagement notice is to notify the market of the Department for Education's (DfE) intention to undertake a procurement exercise to appoint a suitably experienced Organisation to support the delivery of the National Leaders of Education (NLE) reforms. We will be looking to procure the services of a national provider to i) run a reformed NLE application and interview process for eligible school leaders/MAT CEOs and to make recommendations to the department on successful applicants and ii) deliver a national curriculum of compulsory training, designed to the department's specification, to NLEs on a regional level. The successful provider will deliver the application/assessment and training of NLEs over two academic years beginning in academic year 2020 to 2021, the aim being to have the initial cadre of new style NLEs designated and trained by September 2021. INDICATIVE DATES FOR PROCUREMENT: Following market warming, we intend to open an application round in May 2020 whereby providers who have registered their interest in this opportunity would complete a set application form detailing their suitability to provide the assessment and training of prospective NLEs. We will publish a prospectus and application pack alongside the application form with guidance on the requirements and the procurement arrangements. The application round would close at the end of May 2020. Once the application round has closed, applications will undergo an initial desktop assessment based on the criteria and weighting set out in the prospectus and application pack, following which there will be a moderation of those results before final award and mobilisation. Contract award will be around July 2020 with the aim of having a new cadre of NLEs in place by September 2021. Further information on the procurement process will be provided during the market engagement activity.
