Lot Information
Peterborough Diocese Education Trust
Peterborough Diocese Education Trust ~ PDET (the Client) ~ is a multi-academy trust formed by the Peterborough Diocese Board of Education. Each of our schools maintains its own unique identity but we believe that we can achieve more by working together. 'A cord of three strands is not easily broken.' (Ecclesiastes 4:9-12) Our family of schools seek to serve their local communities; they are inclusive welcoming children of the Christian Faith of other faiths or of no faith, children from all backgrounds and of all abilities. We believe in the infinite worth of each person: children deserve the very best education and staff merit support to deliver this. Although the multi-academy trust was formed initially to support church schools, PDET is happy to work with any community school that shares our values. The successful Supplier will be required to provide catering services for PDET at the following locations, split into two lots as detailed below; Lot 1 Barby Church of England Primary School Braunston Church of England Primary School Collingtree (Church of England) Primary School Cranford Church of England Primary School Freeman's Endowed Church of England Junior Academy Great Addington Church of England Primary School Greens Norton Church of England Primary School Guilsborough Church of England Primary School Isham Church of England Primary School Kislingbury Church of England Primary School Loddington Church of England Primary School Mears Ashby Church of England Primary School Milton Parochial Primary School Silverstone Church of England Primary Spratton Church of England Primary School St Andrew's Church of England Primary School & Nursery St Barnabas Chruch of England School St James Church of England Primary School St Luke's Church of England Primary School St Mary's Church of England Primary School Staverton Church of England Primary School Towcester Church of England Primary School Welford, Sibbertoft & Sulby Endowed School Lot 2 Pytchley Church of England Primary School Ringstead Church of England Primary School Trinity Church of England Primary School Weldon Church of England Primary School William Law Church of England Primary School The contract covers the scope for the provision of all catering services at each of the above schools, which also includes all hospitality and free issue requirements. Although the majority of the schools have their meals freshly prepared, cooked on site, there are some that have a 'delivered in' service. The successful Supplier will be expected to source all fresh produce on a local basis, especially fresh meat, bakery and fruit and vegetables. Contractors will need to demonstrate their approach to sustainability and how the supply carbon footprint can be minimised. The overall emphasis for this service is on achieving 'best value' and the successful Supplier will be expected to demonstrate innovation, flexibility and commercialism. Also - equally important are the following areas; Ease of administration - The schools operating models are changing and needing and different approaches are being used at some. What are the innovations in the sector and what would be recommended A large number of sites need improving with more up to date methods and better equipment. The Trust will look for recommendations on how this would be managed The contract being offered commences on 1 August 2023 for an initial three-year period and will operate on a fixed cost basis. Although the contract commencement date is 1 August 2023, there will be no catering provision required at any school until September 2023.
