UK6 - Contract Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Ted Wragg Multi Academy Trust commissioned a managed recruitment service for its schools. The requirement covers sourcing, engaging and administering supply teachers, education support staff, and other temporary, fixed-term or permanent personnel. This is a specialist education recruitment and workforce administration service, rather than the direct supply of teaching or support staff alone. Delivery covers Plymouth and Devon, with the Trust based in Exeter. The procurement is relevant to recruitment agencies, managed service providers and education staffing businesses able to source and administer personnel across these categories. It may also suit providers with established candidate networks in the South West and experience supporting multi-school or academy trust environments.

The procurement has been awarded and the contract is active. The Trust used a selective procedure to make an award under a framework, without reopening competition, for one completed lot. Teaching Personnel Limited was selected on 29 April 2026. The awarded value is £1,080,000 excluding VAT and £1,300,000 including VAT. The award period runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2029. The signed contract has the same values and runs from 9 November 2026 to 8 November 2029; it was signed on 27 August 2026. The requirement was evaluated through the framework award process. The procurement is above the relevant threshold, and the contract value is below £5 million, so no agreed performance metrics were published.

This award demonstrates sustained demand from an academy trust for a single managed route covering supply teachers, education support staff and wider temporary, fixed-term and permanent recruitment. A future competitor would need to provide reliable education-sector candidate sourcing, effective engagement and compliant administration across several employment arrangements. Credible providers are likely to need a broad, responsive staffing network, the capacity to support multiple schools, and processes for handling both short-term supply requirements and longer-term appointments. Experience managing recruitment at trust level would help, particularly where service consistency, candidate availability and administrative control must be maintained across Plymouth and Devon. Businesses already delivering education recruitment or managed staffing services can use this requirement to assess the scale and service model expected by the Trust.
