## Summary

The Torbay Council, located in Torquay, is seeking proposals for an Electronic Personal Education Plan System under its initiative titled "Torbay Virtual School - Electronic Personal Education Plan System." This procurement process falls under the services industry category, specifically focusing on software packages and IT services. The tender was published on 22nd January 2018, and bids were accepted until 26th January 2018. The total estimated value of the contract is £60,000, with the contract period anticipated to commence on 26th March 2018 and extend until 25th March 2020. This is an open procurement process, aimed at inviting various suppliers to participate.

This tender presents significant opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), particularly those specialising in IT services and educational software development. Businesses that can provide secure, user-friendly electronic systems for managing Personal Education Plans would be ideally positioned to compete, given the statutory requirements outlined by the Torbay Council for supporting Looked After Children in the region. With the focus on modernising educational records management, suppliers with experience in sensitive data handling and compliance with child safeguarding regulations will have a competitive edge.

## Notice

To support its core statutory requirement of providing Personal Education Plans (PEPs) for Torbay's Looked After Children, Torbay Council's Torbay Virtual School (TVS) is seeking an electronic Personal Education Plan (PEP) system which can record and store Personal Education Plan data information for young people on its school roll of approximately 500 pupils, spread across schools throughout Torbay and elsewhere in the UK. TVS is inviting bids for a system that can help the Authority meet its statutory obligation and facilitate workload for all stakeholders, whilst maintaining total security of confidential data. Please refer to the Tender documents for full details of the requirements.
