Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process initiated by Newham Community Learning focuses on providing School Based Student Counselling Services. This contract covers the provision of counselling services to be delivered on school sites by trained professionals throughout several regions in the United Kingdom, including areas like UKC, UKD, UKE, and other regions. The process has reached its award stage with the title "School Based Student Counselling Services," closed on the procurement date of 5th October 2025. The services fall under the education sector, classified primarily under primary and secondary education services. The procurement was conducted using a direct method, specifically "below threshold - without competition," and the contract period runs from 6th October 2025 to 31st August 2026, with potential renewals extending to 2027. The contract, valued at £140,262, was awarded to Place2Be, a supplier known for its expertise in educational support services.

This procurement presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in educational support services, particularly those capable of providing in-person counselling services in schools. With the direct procurement method employed, there is an opportunity for businesses with existing relationships or specialised capabilities to secure contracts without extensive competition. This initiative not only allows suppliers to broaden their service footprint across multiple UK regions but also to build partnerships with education authorities seeking sustained support for student welfare. Businesses able to deliver skilled counselling services efficiently will find this an ideal growth area, especially those looking to expand their offerings in the public sector with commitments to long-term service delivery.
