Summary of the contracting process

Portsmouth City Council procured Level 6 teacher apprenticeship training. The service is intended to provide teacher apprenticeship training, with delivery in Portsmouth. This is a specialist education and workforce-development requirement for an organisation able to provide apprenticeship training at this level. The procurement was arranged as a single lot and the service was awarded to South Farnham Educational Trust. The buyer is Portsmouth City Council; the supplier is based in Farnham. The requirement concerns training services rather than the supply of goods or construction work, and its stated scope is teacher apprenticeship training.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. Portsmouth City Council awarded the contract to South Farnham Educational Trust. The contract was signed on 1 August 2026 and runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 July 2034. Its value is £90,000 including gross value as recorded. The award covers one lot. The procurement was described as below threshold, with the method otherwise recorded as unknown. No award date or evaluation criteria are recorded, so the award outcome is reported without attributing a selection basis. The contract is for training services delivered in Portsmouth; the awarded supplier is based in Farnham.

This award shows demand from Portsmouth City Council for Level 6 teacher apprenticeship training, delivered in Portsmouth, through a single-lot service contract. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to demonstrate the ability to deliver teacher apprenticeship training at the specified level and to support its delivery in the city. The selected supplier, South Farnham Educational Trust, is a large organisation, indicating that a provider with sufficient organisational capacity to deliver a sustained training service is well placed to compete. The procurement was handled as a below-threshold process, so suppliers should be prepared for a route that is not described in further detail here. The awarded requirement is focused on teacher apprenticeships, rather than general training or unrelated education services.
