Lot Information

Lot 1

Providers are invited to submit proposals for managing community lettings at St Ambrose College. The College requires a fully-managed service. St Ambrose is a large secondary academy based in Hale Barns, Altrincham, Greater Manchester. The school has outstanding facilities which can be an asset to the local community. We have an all-weather 3G pitch, a tennis court, a swimming pool, sports hall, and expansive fields and pitches. There is ample parking and we are close to Hale Barns village centre. We require a reliable, professional and fully-managed lettings service. We would like a robust and expansive contract which covers all aspects of the lettings process, including booking, invoicing and debt management, staffing, maintenance, and compliance with all legal requirements. It is important that the lettings provider provides a professional service which enhances the reputation of the school. 2. Our facilities Our school is modern, is in outstanding condition, and boasts the following facilities: * 25 metre, six-lane swimming pool * Lecture theatre with capacity for approx. 150 attendees * 690m2 sports hall * 190m2 fitness suite * 11-a-side 3G astroturf, which can be split into three pitches * 108m2 drama studio * Cricket nets * Rugby pitches * Athletics track and sand pit. The sports area can be isolated from the main school building and become self-contained. It includes an all-day cafe, changing facilities, and a reception counter. 3. Background The school building and site were redeveloped and construction was completed in September 2012. Due to VAT exemptions the College is unable to commercially let the building until 3rd September 2022. St Ambrose College are therefore now evaluating various options for community letting. St Ambrose would like a fully-managed lettings service but would invite proposals on how preferential partners could be accommodated. This includes local football / rugby teams and swimming clubs, who have expressed an interest in being the sole user of the football and swimming facilities. 4. Hours of use School currently has planning permission for community use, and has submitted a planning application to vary the hours. Details can be found on the Lettings Brief document. School expects priority to be given to its extracurricular sport, which is extensive. The sports fields and changing rooms are used to host rugby fixtures on approximately 20 Saturdays between October and February. School fixtures and swimming galas can extend to 6pm on some evenings. Proposals should take into account school use and outline the arrangements for other ad-hoc occasions where school needs access to facilities. Catering is likely to be managed in-house, by school, given that staff will have access to and training on the kitchen equipment. We have a cafe which can serve hot drinks and snacks. However, if any providers do have expertise in providing catering facilities, then this can be included within the proposal. 5. Ethos and vision The school would like proposals to consider lettings success criteria agreed by the Governing Body: * To align with the school's vision , mission and values providing enrichment opportunities for the benefit of students, staff and parents whilst attracting potential students and increasing engagement. * To create strong, inclusive links with the local community, especially local feeder schools. * To deliver a commercial, sustainable solution which generates an ongoing income to enhance the opportunities and experience for the students and staff. * To ensure the lettings arrangements are simple to manage and do not impact negatively on the day to day running of the school. 6. Process Providers are invited to tour the facilities if they have not done so previously and then submit a proposal detailing the following headings, which are also outlined in the ITT: * Company credentials * Services offered * Proposed utilisation of facilities including all the health and fitness suites, pitches, pool, and lecture theatre * Competitor audit * Potential partners * Proposal and recommendation * P+L to include costings for facilities /staffing / ancillary costs * Sample timed implementation Gannt * Staffing * Equipment provision, usage and storage * Health and safety - to include safeguarding, insurance, capacity constraints etc * Maintenance and cleaning * Booking platform * Marketing and promotion * Environmental sustainability * Testimonials and references * Additional Information.
