The College would wish the successful contractor to review the current range of services offered and make recommendations accordingly. The contract being tendered is for three years in duration from 29 August 2023 to August 2026 and the central focus of the contract will be continuing with minimal costs to the students. Sovereignty of the cash tariff is to remain with Esher Sixth Form College for the duration of this contract. The academic year is based on a calendar of 195 days.

The contract offered covers the scope for the provision of all catering services within the College, which currently includes morning break, lunch, Costa provision (or similar) all hospitality and free issue requirements. Free School Meals and hospitality will be charged based on consumption and at net food cost.

As a College who are continually seeking ways to improve and develop the ethos and environment for students and staff, to give them the facilities they deserve and need to meet the challenges of the 21st Century, any consideration regarding inward capital investment as part of the Contractor's tender submission would be welcomed. The College would wish for the Contractor to look at making this investment within the existing dining area. Please be advised that this contract will be let on a 3 + 2 years basis.",
