Lot Information

Lot 1

The successful Supplier will be required to provide Catering services for Rednock School. All students are welcomed into Rednock School and encouraged to achieve their full potential, following a personalised pathway to success. Rednock is an inclusive school where everyone matters. We work hard to create a positive and supportive ethos, placing great importance on the successful transition between primary and secondary school. As a school we seek to develop, to the full, the intellectual, physical, social, moral, spiritual, and cultural potential of each student. Every student is expected to learn and succeed in an environment of mutual respect for themselves and others. We want all our students to develop into responsible, capable, and caring citizens of the future. Rednock Sixth Form has a long history of giving students exceptional opportunities to reach their potential. Our aim is to ensure that every student succeeds. At the heart of our Sixth Form is the belief that personal success through reaching individual goals and ambitions is our core purpose. This is underpinned through an increasingly rich and active enrichment programme that provides students with a huge range of opportunities. This is matched with a strong ethos of academic success that encourages every student to challenge themselves and strive to be the best they can be. The contract covers the scope for the provision of all catering services within the School, including hospitality and free issue requirements. The duration of the contract offered is three years commencing on 1 August 2023, concluding on 31 July 2026, with the opportunity to extend by up to an additional two years at the discretion of the governing body. The contract is offered on a 'guaranteed performance' basis. Cash Meal Deals are to be at a maximum of PS2.50, with Free School Meals provided for 185 of the total 1200 pupils charged on consumption with margin applied. Free School Meal eligible pupils must be able to choose ANY meal deal provided to other pupils, using their daily allowance. Hospitality and free issues are recharged on consumption at "net" food cost only. It is appreciated that a level of investment may be identified as a requirement of your bid, and therefore bidders are encouraged to provide detailed information of any equipment felt necessary. Bidders must provide the equipment make, model and cost and a justification of how this equipment will assist in fulfilling the proposal and potential of the service. All investment suggested must be fully justified within the Service Development and Finance sections of your Bidder Response. The level of investment provided will be at the School's discretion, subject to the method of obtaining the investment for the required equipment. The School is receptive to contractor's ideas for improvements such as: *The removal of all single use plastic from drinks from the start of the contract *The use of only bio-degradable packaging from the start of the contract *The reduction of queues from the main dining area by provision of a hot and cold grab & go offer to pupils in the DT atrium *A clear focus on sustainability *The reduction and control of catering related litter from all dining and non-dining areas from the start of the contract *The consistent quality of packed lunches offered to FSM eligible pupils on School trips The quality of food provision will be critical and indeed your organisation must be flexible enough to source bakery, meat, fruit and vegetables and dairy products through local suppliers. It is expected that menus will feature and utilise products in season. Customer engagement will be fundamental to the continuous improvement in the service provision and within your tender response your methodology to achieve this will be detailed along with examples of where this has recently been undertaken within similar contracts. See SQ document for further details.
