Summary of the contracting process

Park View Academy in Chester-le-Street, UK, has awarded a contract for the "Provision of Coaching Services" to Park View Academy of Sport Limited. This procurement falls under the industry categories of education and training services, alongside transport services. The award was made on 8th July 2026, with the contract set to start on 1st September 2026 and potentially extend to 31st August 2031. The procurement process was conducted through an open procedure, allowing for broad competition among suppliers. The awarded contract, valued at £675,077 gross, highlights the institution's intent to enhance the overall management structure for delivering high-quality sporting and educational provisions at its academies.

This tender represents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in coaching, sports management, education, and logistics. Companies able to provide comprehensive, high-quality service delivery in coaching and education, without the need for existing staffing under TUPE, could leverage this contract to grow their portfolio in the educational sector. Particularly, businesses that demonstrate innovative management and staffing solutions for sports academies, including both coaching and logistics, with a focus on enhancing student experience, would be well-positioned to compete effectively. Additionally, companies with expertise in managing transport logistics for student commutes and pitch maintenance could find subcontracting opportunities to further extend their services under this contract.

Notice Title

Provision of Coaching Services

Notice Description

Park View School is seeking to appoint a provider to deliver the coaching services, management services, sports science, vocational education and logistical operations for each of the academies. To provide an overall management structure to deliver high quality sporting and education provision that enhances the overall student experience. The appointed provider will be responsible for end-to-end delivery including coaching, education, sports science, pastoral care, and logistics. We are seeking to deliver the following academies, fully staffed to deliver outstanding outcomes. We are requesting interested parties to submit a plan on the number of staff required and a budget model for this. We are expecting to see how the academies will be managed, what delivery will be in place for coaching, sports science, vocational teaching, cleaning, logistics and operational delivery of the sports academy. Key to this is having staff who can manage the sports academies alongside delivering the pastoral aspects required within the academic environment. The current provider of these services only uses self-employed staff and we therefore believe that there will be no staff eligible for transfer under the TUPE Regulations. To successfully award this tender, organisations need to demonstrate how they will achieve student numbers for the following sports academies. As it stands the existing provider has recruited the below estimated numbers based on new first years only:- * Women's football - 34 * Men's football - 56 * Men's Rugby - 24 * Women's Rugby 26 * Cricket - 36 * Basketball - 10 * Athletics - 15 Currently there are 169 year 12 students. This is broken down into the following academic courses:- * 79 Btec sport students * 72 A levels * 18 Active IQ Those students take part in the following sports academies:- * Men's Football 50 * Women's Football 38 * Cricket 33 * Men's Rugby 20 * Women's Rugby 11 * Athletics 14 * Netball 3 * Swimming 1 The contract also requires provision of transporting any recruited students into Park View 6th Form. The school has 8 x 16 seater Minibuses and a 9 seater minibus that are available for use. The cost of the lease and fuel is covered by the school budget. If required, the budget for fuel for the academic year is PS35,000. Park View School also requires the pitches to be maintained. The pitch maintenance is an optional service that can be subcontracted. If you are able to provide this service then you must demonstrate how you will maintain the grass pitches that we currently have. Describe what machinery you have and the experience of the ground staff who will undertake this. As this is an optional service it will not be included within the bid evaluation. You must provide the price of this service separately for information purposes only.
