The procurement process is a restricted procedure, meaning that only select suppliers will be invited to tender.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in cleaning services, particularly those with experience in the educational sector. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) with a strong operational presence in the Kidderminster area are well-suited to compete, given the need for local contract support and operational flexibility. A successful bid can lead to long-term business growth through a fixed-price contract guaranteeing both the quality and quantity of cleaning services required. Variant bids will be considered alongside conforming bids, though each bidder must also provide a conforming bid. The contract stipulates monthly management reporting, ensuring ongoing engagement with the school's senior management team, which can further establish a service provider’s reputation and reliability in the education sector.

Lot Information

Lot 1

We are a broad-spectrum special needs school for children aged 3 to 19. We also have Russell House, a 16-bed weekly residential unit. We have only been in our building since April 2015. Before this the school was on two sites following the Wyre Forest restructuring in 2011 (Bewdley Road site, formerly Blakebrook, and Comberton Road site, formerly Stourminster). We share our campus with St John's Church of England School and Baxter College. Our Early Years Hub includes a Nursery Assessment Class, which can take up to 25 children. We have a state-of-the-art science lab housed within Baxter College. We also have a vocational hub and a Sixth Form which prepares children for life after school. Offsite we run the award-winning Blossom Tree Cafe in Springfield Park. We work tirelessly to meet the needs of all the children, so they develop and progress academically, socially, emotionally and physically. Our values of enthusiasm, resilience, honesty, teamwork and trust shine out from all that we do. We have an exciting curriculum which is broad and balanced and make the use of our specialist facilities, including soft play, dark room, sensory rooms, vocational hub, hydropool, gym and riding for the disabled. We are also a communication specialist school and use sign-a-long, PECS and communication passports. We are passionate about the benefits of outdoor education from Forest Schools and The John Muir Award to outdoor pursuits, working the land and exploring the Wyre Forest. This work is crucial in building emotional resilience, teamwork and independence. The contract will commence on 1 April 2025 for an initial period of three years, ending on 31 March 2028, with the opportunity to extend for a further period of two years at the discretion of the governing body. This contract will be fixed price in nature with the successful Supplier guaranteeing both the number of input hours to the contract and the quality of cleaning provision. We are seeking a suitably experienced Supplier who has current experience of working within the school marketplace, ideally with a strong operational base within the Kidderminster area, thus allowing for both adequate contract support and operational flexibility that is to be delivered to support the contract as and when required moving forwards into this contract term. The scope of the contract covers all cleaning provision within the school buildings. The successful Supplier will be expected to deliver a concise and detailed method of management reporting at the end of each month, thus updating the school senior management team on the contract performance.
