UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

St Clare Catholic Multi Academy Trust bought supply teacher provision and recruitment services for education and support staff for its schools. The requirement covers sourcing and supplying temporary teaching personnel, alongside recruitment support for other education and support roles. It is a public-sector education procurement led by the Trust, which is based 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, the South East and the South West. The service is classified as recruitment services. This opportunity is therefore relevant to education recruitment agencies, supply teacher providers and staffing businesses able to support schools across a broad English geographic area.

The procurement has been completed and awarded. It used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition, under the GCA RM6376 Supply Teachers and Education Recruitment Framework. There was one completed lot. The contract was signed on 7 August 2026 and runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2027. Its value is £30,000 excluding VAT and £36,000 including VAT. The contract is active and was awarded to Milk Education Ltd. The published outcome records the requirement as a services contract. The route used means suppliers already on, or able to access, the relevant framework arrangement would be best placed to understand and compete for a comparable future requirement.

This award demonstrates recurring demand from St Clare Catholic Multi Academy Trust for supply teachers and education and support staff recruitment. A credible competitor would need an established education staffing operation, access to suitably qualified and available teaching personnel, and the ability to recruit or place support staff for schools. Coverage across England indicates that geographic reach, coordinated fulfilment and the capacity to serve multiple school locations are important commercial strengths. The selected supplier, Milk Education Ltd, is an SME, showing that the requirement can be delivered by a specialist staffing business rather than only a large national provider. Experience supplying schools and operating through the relevant education recruitment framework would strengthen a future proposition.
