Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

East Riding of Yorkshire Council procured education and training services for the delivery of two Level 6 social worker apprenticeship standards. The requirement supports apprenticeship training for social work roles and is delivered in Yorkshire and the Humber, United Kingdom. The council is the buying organisation. The service falls within the broad education and training services category. The selected provider is the University of Hull, based on Cottingham Road in Hull. This opportunity is relevant to universities, higher education providers, specialist apprenticeship training organisations and other organisations able to deliver regulated or formally structured Level 6 social work apprenticeship provision in the Yorkshire and the Humber area.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to the University of Hull on 3 August 2026. The awarded contract value is £48,000, within an estimated procurement range of £1,000 to £48,000. The contract is scheduled to run from 1 September 2026 to 31 December 2030. It was conducted as a direct award through a single tender action below the applicable threshold, rather than an open competition. The requirement was suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises. The tender submission deadline was 30 July 2026 at 5pm. The award is active, and the selected supplier is identified as the University of Hull.

For a supplier that did not win this procurement, the requirement demonstrates a defined local demand for higher-level social work apprenticeship training over a multi-year period. A credible future competitor would need to deliver both Level 6 social worker apprenticeship standards, provide suitably qualified teaching and assessment staff, and support apprentices through the full training lifecycle. Relevant capability would include higher education or specialist apprenticeship delivery, robust learner support, quality assurance, employer liaison and the capacity to serve East Riding of Yorkshire Council’s workforce in Yorkshire and the Humber. Universities, established apprenticeship providers and smaller specialist or voluntary-sector organisations with the necessary delivery systems and social work expertise are the closest comparator suppliers.
