Summary of the contracting process

Rutland County Council commissioned a School Support Partnership Coordinator service to help children with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) be included effectively in mainstream schools. The work centres on developing and coordinating School Support Partnerships across education providers in Rutland. It is a specialist education and inclusion service, classified under health and social work services. The delivery area is Rutland, serving the council’s education providers and mainstream schools. The requirement is for coordination and partnership development rather than the supply of goods or construction work.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. Rutland County Council awarded it directly, below the threshold and without competition, to Educational Consultancy. The contract was signed on 12 August 2026 and runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 March 2027. Its value is £38,000 excluding VAT (£45,600 including VAT). The requirement was presented as a single lot. No evaluation basis or eligibility requirements are stated in the available process details.

This award shows demand from Rutland County Council for specialist coordination that supports SEND inclusion in mainstream education. Suppliers competing for comparable work with this buyer would need credible experience of working across schools and education providers, understanding of the needs of children with SEND, and the ability to build and coordinate effective partnership arrangements. The contract is a focused, time-limited service rather than a large multi-lot programme, so providers able to deliver the coordination function directly may be well placed. Educational Consultancy, identified as an SME, was selected through a direct award; the process gives evidence of the kind of targeted service the council has commissioned.
