The Trust has the strong moral purpose of enabling schools to deliver high levels of achievement for all pupils, regardless of socio-economic circumstances, family situation or ethnic background. The Trust will secure and sustain improvement in schools by providing leadership and support through academy sponsorship, by working with governing bodies to strengthen their leadership and strategic delivery and through contracted work with school leaders and their teams. There are seventeen schools within the Active Learning Trust (the Client) included within this catering contract opportunity, all of which are currently outsourced. This contract will be awarded in lots where bidding Suppliers may bid for any combination of lots. There are 17 schools within the Active Learning Trust (the Client) included within this catering contract opportunity, all of which are currently outsourced.

It is anticipated that the Trust will grow in the number of schools being part of it during the course of this contract, beyond the schools listed above. The provision of catering services to these schools when they have joined the Trust may at the Client's discretion, fall under the scope of this contract. The successful Supplier will be expected to provide costings and operational proposals for the catering services within these additional schools using the same costing model that was applied to the successful bid to the Client at the point of tender submission. The duration of the contract for these schools will not be increased and they will join the contract for the remaining contract period that exists at the point of entry into this contract. Please note: There is currently a primary school in Earith that the Trust is in discussion with and, as stated above, further schools may be added to the contract both during the tender process and during the life of the contract.
