Summary of the contracting process

The Education and Training Foundation is seeking to improve outcomes for learners with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) through a series of four contracts awarded as part of the 2017-18 initiative. This project falls under the services category within the education and training industry and encompasses various regions across the United Kingdom. The procurement process followed an open procedure, concluding its tender period on 20th March 2017, with a total contract value of £395,853. The awarded contracts began on 19th April 2017 and will run until 30th March 2018.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses focused on educational support, particularly those offering innovative solutions to enhance education for SEND learners. Companies specialising in educational resources, training for educators, and career guidance services would be well-suited to compete. As this initiative emphasises tailored programmes and improved career advice, suppliers with expertise in technical and vocational education services can particularly benefit from engaging with this contracting process.

Notice Title

Improving outcomes for SEND learners 2017-18

Notice Description

4 contracts have been awarded to build on the work carried out in 2016-17 by the Foundation (http://www.et-foundation.co.uk/supporting/support-practitioners/special-educational-needs-disabilities-send-resources/), and its partners, to support staff working in the Post-16 sector to improve outcomes for learners with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND). The aim was to make sure that all learners with a learning difficulty and/or disability are supported in their learning and in the achievement of their aspirations in life, wherever and whatever they are learning. Our work included learners with Education and Health Care (EHC) Plans, as well as those without plans. In 2017-18, our work specifically focused on: - Support for leadership teams and those involved in governance - Support for providers to design tailored study programmes that offer pathways to employment and adult life for young people with SEND - Creation of resources and a programme of activity which supports better careers advice for learners with SEND - An evaluation of the impact of this work. Learner voice was an integral part of all the activity.
