Summary of the contracting process

Wigan Council has completed its "Wigan Council - Tutoring Framework" procurement process, focusing on providing tutoring services to children and young people who lack suitable educational opportunities. This initiative, located in Wigan, United Kingdom (region UKD36), falls under the education and training services category. The process utilised an open procedure with a procurement method classified as "light touch," and a framework agreement is in place, set to last until 2033. The procurement process encompassed multiple stages, with the award finalised and contracts beginning on 1st December 2025. Successful suppliers include Courage Global School Limited, Choice Home Tutoring Limited, and The National Teaching & Advisory Service Limited, amongst others, highlighting a robust collaboration of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and larger entities.

This tutoring framework offers substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in educational services, particularly those able to provide flexible solutions like both face-to-face and online tutoring. Companies in the education sector, especially SMEs with a focus on innovation and adaptability, would find this framework beneficial for business growth. The framework's emphasis on quality, community wealth building, and competitive pricing makes it attractive for businesses seeking to establish or expand their presence in the public sector educational services market. Additionally, with an end date set for September 2033 and a considerable budget of £5 million, participating businesses can leverage this opportunity for long-term strategic growth and community impact.
