UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Surrey County Council procured specialist school transport services for More House School under its SEND transport requirements. The service covers journeys for two students: one travelling from West Molesey and one from Walton-on-Thames. The contract uses a saloon vehicle and does not require a passenger assistant. The work is student transport rather than general passenger transport, with routes serving the named Surrey locations and the school destination. The relevant service category is transport services (CPV 60000000). This opportunity is suited to operators able to provide safe, dependable home-to-school journeys for children with special educational needs and disabilities, using an appropriate saloon vehicle and managing the specified routes.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. It used one lot under the light-touch regime. CandG Cars Ltd was awarded the contract on 3 September 2026 for £63,855 gross, including any applicable taxes, in GBP. The contract was signed on 3 September 2026 and runs from 7 September 2026 to 31 July 2028. The contract is active. The published outcome identifies the selected supplier and the awarded transport service, but does not set out an evaluation weighting or separate price and quality scores. The recorded tender title is Client Transport Services 2026–2034 – SEND: More House School.

This award demonstrates a defined requirement for regular SEND school transport between West Molesey, Walton-on-Thames and More House School. Suppliers considering future work for Surrey County Council would need the operational ability to provide consistent saloon-car journeys for individual students, follow fixed school routes and timetables, and deliver a reliable safeguarding-focused service. A credible competitor would be a suitably equipped local or regional passenger-transport operator able to manage small-volume home-to-school work rather than relying only on larger vehicles or general bus services. The selected supplier is an SME, showing that this scale of council transport requirement can suit smaller operators with the capacity and reliability to deliver it.
