Notice Title

NHS BNSSG - Partnerships for Inclusion in Neurodiversity in Schools Year 2 (PINS2)

Notice Description

BNSSG ICB is looking to contract a project management and delivery provider to lead, administer and deliver the PINS project in total including school selection, school liaison, support package delivery, monitoring and reporting and evaluation. The PINS Programme tests an innovative model for the effective and efficient deployment of health and education workforces, focusing on supporting neurodivergent pupils. This cohort is a fast-growing group of children likely to benefit from more inclusive mainstream environments. An equally important strand of the PINS Programme is to strengthen parent carer and school partnerships in mainstream education settings. BNSSG delivered a PINS project in FY 2024-25 and has the opportunity to expand the offer to 30 additional primary schools in our area. In addition, support will be offered to the existing 45 schools involved in that previous PINS project in FY 2024-25, to help them to embed their learning and practice improvements. Contract value PS179,000 for a 12-month contract and the necessity for requirements to be delivered between 1st September 2025 and 31st March 2026. Due to being unable to link the notice, the information below is regarding the advertisement of this tender Notice identifier: 2025/S 000-029865 This exercise is being carried out by NHS South, Central and West Commissioning Support Unit (SCW) on behalf of the Commissioner.
