Summary of the contracting process

The Latymer School, supported by SSC Partnership Limited as its agent, procured a school lettings management service for community use of the school’s facilities. The provider is responsible for the full administration and operational management of lettings, including ensuring activities are delivered safely, efficiently and in line with the school’s safeguarding, educational and community objectives. This is a property and venue lettings service covering non-residential property rental, leasing and related property services. Delivery is at The Latymer School in Edmonton, London. The requirement concerns management of community access to the Authority’s facilities rather than construction, facilities maintenance or a standalone booking platform. It is relevant to organisations that manage school, community, education or other public-sector venue lettings as an end-to-end operational service.

The procurement has been awarded and the contract is active. School Space Limited was selected on 20 February 2026, and the contract was signed on 20 April 2026. The awarded and contracted value is £2,100,000 gross. The contract period runs from 20 April 2026 to 19 April 2029, with an option, subject to agreement by both parties, to extend for a further two years to 19 April 2031. It was run as a single-lot open procedure under the most advantageous tender approach. Five bids reached the final stage, including one from an SME and three from VCSEs. Evaluation required mandatory responses to be passed before scored responses were assessed, alongside a financial submission. Desirable questionnaire answers were evaluated against the Procurement Specific Questionnaire requirements.

This award demonstrates substantial demand from a secondary school for a supplier able to run community lettings as a complete operational service, not simply provide venue-booking software or occasional administration. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need the capacity to administer bookings and associated activity across school facilities, manage day-to-day operations, and maintain safe delivery. It would also need to show a clear understanding of safeguarding and the school’s educational and community objectives. The procurement used a Procurement Specific Questionnaire alongside a financial submission, with mandatory requirements acting as a gateway to evaluation and desirable responses scored on their merits. Suppliers with established public, education or community venue-management experience, robust operating procedures and the resources to manage a sizeable school lettings portfolio would be well placed.
