UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

St Clare Catholic Multi Academy Trust is procuring supply teacher provision and recruitment services for education and support staff in its schools. The requirement covers sourcing and supplying temporary teaching personnel, alongside recruitment support for wider education and support roles. It is a public-sector education opportunity managed by the Trust, whose base is in Sheffield. Delivery covers schools across England, including the North East, North West, Yorkshire and the Humber, East Midlands, West Midlands, East of England, London, South East and South West. The service is classified as recruitment services. The procurement sits under the GCA RM6376 Supply Teachers and Education Recruitment Framework, so it is relevant to education staffing agencies and recruitment businesses able to provide teachers and other school support personnel through that framework.

The procurement has been completed and awarded. Protocol Education Limited was selected as the supplier. The Trust used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition, under the GCA RM6376 framework. One lot was completed. The contract was signed on 6 August 2026 and runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2027. Its value is £20,000 excluding VAT, or £24,000 including VAT. The recorded award is active and the contract is active. The available outcome shows a framework-based award rather than a competed tender, with no separate evaluation weighting or scoring basis recorded. The requirement covers the Trust’s schools and the full English delivery area described above.

For suppliers that did not win this award, the process demonstrates recurring demand from a multi-academy trust for supply teachers and education or support staff recruitment. A credible competitor for this buyer would need an established education recruitment operation, reliable access to qualified teaching and school support candidates, and the capacity to fulfil temporary staffing requirements across schools in multiple English regions. Familiarity with the GCA RM6376 Supply Teachers and Education Recruitment Framework is commercially important, since this requirement was placed through that route by direct award without competition. Businesses should therefore be able to operate within framework terms, respond quickly to school staffing needs, maintain candidate quality and compliance checks, and manage delivery consistently across a broad geographic footprint.
