UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council procured client transport services for Queensmead House School, covering one student from Esher and one from West Molesey. The requirement is for a saloon vehicle to provide transport for the two students. No personal assistant is required. One student is recorded as having epilepsy, although they have not had a seizure for more than four years and are no longer under the care of an epilepsy team. The work is categorised as transport services and concerns the school transport needs of children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities. Delivery involves journeys associated with Queensmead House School and the stated starting locations in Surrey.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a below-threshold limited competition. One lot was awarded to Angel Cars Limited, a small or medium-sized enterprise. The contract was signed on 30 July 2026 and is active, with a period from 3 September 2026 to 31 July 2029. Its value is £10,620,000 including gross value, in GBP. The award covers the transport services described for Queensmead House School. The published outcome records Angel Cars Limited as the selected supplier. The procurement uses the light-touch regime. The contract is associated with Surrey County Council, which is both the buyer and the public authority managing the requirement.

This procurement shows demand from Surrey County Council for dedicated school transport serving pupils with special educational needs and disabilities. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this type would need to provide a suitable saloon vehicle and reliably operate journeys involving Esher, West Molesey and Queensmead House School. The requirement also points to the importance of transporting a small number of students without a personal assistant, while being prepared to understand and manage relevant passenger health information, including a history of epilepsy. Small and medium-sized transport operators can compete for this kind of below-threshold limited competition, provided they can demonstrate dependable vehicle provision and the operational ability to deliver consistent school journeys.
