The Bemrose School is a primary and secondary school with 300 primary pupils and 780 secondary pupils onsite. They became a 3-19 school in September 2014. They are situated about 1 mile west of Derby City Centre. The primary is based in a new fantastic PS4 million purpose-built building. The school has a new build of 21 modern award-winning classrooms and has recently finished a refurbishment program to improve the main building further. Services will take place Mon- Fri during term time and selected school holidays. Aims of the Service and Tender The key aims of the tender are to: SS Provide a high standard of cleaning SS Deliver the cleaning services with consistency - good quality assurance systems in place SS Good communication at local and operations manager level with the School - two-way communication SS Daily interaction with the School representative at each site SS Develop an effective method of handing over any special needs and comments on a daily basis SS A Contractor that adopts a flexible and proactive approach to all School activities.

SS Training and development of the teams at the School This does not imply that this is not happening now - these are the aims of the contract. The School work to provide the students with the very best experiences they can. The quality of the environment in which they all work together is very important to us. The cleanliness and good order of the classrooms, corridors and other areas of the School impacts upon the teaching and learning that goes within the School. The School expectations are high, and they are looking for a cleaning contractor who has the same aims and aspirations as we do. They do seek value for money but that does not mean they will choose the cheapest quote possible. They are seeking a partner who will be willing to undertake extra work and be flexible in approach when dealing with certain key events in our year. The site plans are included as a separate attachment with the rooms labelled by name. There are no scale drawings available, but we have included two versions of the plans.
