Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Ministry of Justice procured youth support services at HM YOI Werrington in the West Midlands. The work is classified as youth education services (CPV 80310000) and involves supporting a diverse cohort of children from across the country. The appointed provider is expected to deliver activities that engage young people, create learning opportunities, provide information and develop practical skills. The wider purpose is to help young people integrate back into society and break the cycle of offending. This is a services requirement delivered in a youth offender institution, suited to organisations with experience of education, support or personal development programmes for young people in custodial or other challenging settings.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Kinetic Youth Ltd on 18 August 2026. The award value is £109,805.84. The contract runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2027. The Ministry of Justice used a selective call-off procedure from its Prison Education Dynamic Purchasing System. The tender submission deadline was 15 June 2026 at 3pm. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises. The award is active and the contract period is recorded against the successful supplier. This outcome shows the requirement was purchased through the existing dynamic purchasing system rather than an unrestricted standalone competition.

This procurement indicates demand for specialist youth support and education delivery within the prison estate, with a clear focus on engagement, learning, information, skills development and reintegration. Suppliers competing when this requirement returns would need credible experience of working with young people, including those facing offending, disengagement or difficult transitions into society. They would also need the operational ability to deliver structured activities at HM YOI Werrington and respond to a diverse cohort whose needs may extend across the country. The requirement is well aligned with small and medium-sized organisations and voluntary, community or social enterprises. Relevant providers should understand custodial safeguarding, partnership working and outcome-focused youth development, and be able to use the dynamic purchasing system route.
