                "description": "The successful Supplier will be required to provide Catering Services for the three schools of Generations MAT Current turnover for the three schools is in excess of PS820k. The Trust was established following a direct approach by the DfE and currently consists of two secondaries - Goffs and Goffs-Churchgate Academy - and one primary - Flamstead End School. In addition, the Trust operates an independently run nursery from its Goffs-Churchgate site. The trust's core aims are as follows: 'The name \"Generations\" reflects our desire to be a Trust that educates and nurtures children from their earliest days at school. Partnership is at the heart of all of our work, founded in a core commitment to there being no set destiny for any child, regardless of their starting point. Fundamentally, we are committed to having a Trust that ensures: *No set destiny for any of our children *Quality first delivery day in and day out *The highest standards of achievement for each child *Robust and effective leadership and governance *The highest standards of financial/business delivery, ensuring that the Trust's business operation underpins the delivery and work of all of our academies *Personalised, high quality professional development for staff, ensuring a highly skilled workforce' There is a mixed demographic in the catchment for each of the three schools and pupil feeding is seen as a very important part of the school day providing healthy choices for sustenance and sociability. Currently Goffs and Goffs Churchgate have Chartwells as the service provider and Flamstead End have HCL. A principal aim of this process will be to realise the benefits of a single service provider for the three schools (and any additional schools that may join the Trust in time.) Flamstead End school, with a NOR of circa 500, and 75 nursery pupils has reasonable uptake of UIFSM and requires a certain amount of menu flexibility to accommodate the younger KS1 pupils who have a separate service area (food produced from one kitchen and transported in hotboxes around 40 metres to the secondary servery). The kitchen facility has modern service equipment and a settled team. Local stakeholders would like more menu differentiation between KS1 meals and KS2 meals in terms of small changes in menu content - additional salad bar content and more potato than pasta content, but the service provision is seen to be at even keel. Goff's Academy, with NOR of circa 1550 and 180 staff is in a new building, opened in 2017. In terms of production facilities, these are adequate for the site population but there are restrictions front of house in terms of servery design and available seating that will require some creative input, thought and investment throughout the ITT process. There is one existing pod to help manage queues but there may well be need for an additional service point to keep throughout of pupils commensurate with available time. On the wish-list of senior stakeholders for the next contract term are: *Wider choice of healthier alternatives at Morning break and lunchtime *A closer eye on sustainability - less disposables and packaging *Relevant logistical inputs to help school return to Single all school break timetable which was in place pre- Covid *Helping the school link Food service and service provider expertise into the curriculum - from a nutritional perspective and also to promote F&B as a genuine career pathway Goff's Academy Churchgate, with NOR of around 600 has a higher proportion of SEN students and with FSM % at around 35%, recognises its responsibility of feeding the pupils well.
