This process falls within the services category and pertains to administrative educational services. The procurement method used was direct, below threshold without competition, which was deemed suitable given the organisations involved. The contract awarded on 31st March 2026, or commenced 1st April 2026, is active and set to run until 31st March 2029.

Notice Information

Notice Title

London Grid for Learning - Pan London

Notice Description

Surrey participates in the Pan London Coordinated Admissions scheme, which ensures admissions processes and dates are coordinated and enables us to exchange application and outcome files with other participating LAs in just one file, rather than exchanging individual files with lots of LAs. The system is commissioned by London Grid for Learning (LGfL) on behalf of London LAs and, due to the cross border movement, surrounding Counties are invited to participate. Surrey has been part of this scheme since its inception in around 2008 and it has worked very well. Surrey also uses the Pan London E-Admissions site to enable parents to apply online for a school place.
