                "description": "Orchard Hill College (and OHCAT) wishes to create a Preferred Supplier List (PSL) for the recruitment and placement of temporary and permanent personnel, as detailed in the ITT. The PSL will commence in September 2023 and will be in place for a total of three years with an option to extend to a maximum of four years. The PSL will be run as a dynamic purchasing system and will be refreshed annually at which OHC will review current suppliers to assess if their position on the PSL should remain and if sufficient vacancies arise then OHC will re-advertise for new entrants to be considered. At the time of publishing this tender OHC has 8 college centres (a 9th will be in place from September 2023). OHC has immediate, short-term and long-term staffing requirements centred mostly on temporary teaching and support roles. We are looking for established recruitment agencies that can demonstrate a proven track record of delivering mandates in the education sector and particularly SEND environments. NB There is an expectation that all agency personnel put forward for placement will have undertaken safeguarding level 1 training, manual handling and Team Teach training, however, OHC can provide this training at additional cost if required. Personnel should also be fully conversant with KCSiE and will have also read relevant OHC and OHCAT policies prior to taking up any role. The PSL will initially be split into two categories: Curriculum staff - Learning (Teaching) Support Assistant - Level 1 - Learning (Teaching) Support Assistant - Level 2 - Senior Teaching Aide (STA) - Lecturer Non-Curriculum staff - Occupational therapist - Physiotherapist - Speech and language therapist - Art Therapist - Nurse NB More categories and job roles can be added at any point during the lifetime of the PSL. 1The purpose of the PSL is to provide efficient routes to supply personnel who meet our requirements. Agencies will act as our recruitment partners under a centrally managed framework, underpinned by a common set of terms of business and bespoke pricing agreements. The HR Department will be responsible for promoting the PSL internally as part of our wider resourcing strategy and will support college centres to engage directly with preferred suppliers via this PSL. We anticipate that no more than 12 recruitment agencies will be appointed to the PSL at any one time for curriculum and 8 for non-curriculum. Suppiers must agree to be bound by our Terms of Business. We do not guarantee usage or volume through the PSL, however, we will approach approved PSL providers in the first instance for our staffing requirements which are covered by this PSL. OHC engage over 400 days of agency personnel per week to give an indication of current volume. We reserve the right to add OHCAT to be a recipient of the PSL at any time during the lifetime of the PSL. At the time of publishing this tender OHCAT has 14 SEND schools and a central services team. Additional information: See ITT, in particular, instructions to bidders and time table. Supplier briefing event [1 person per agency] via Teams at 10am on 23/05/23.",
