## Summary

The procurement, classified under the Education and Training Services category, began with tender details published on 15th April 2021. The contract was awarded on 25th May 2021 and is set to commence on 1st June 2021, concluding on 31st May 2022. With a total contract value of £150,000, the winning bidder, The Cycle Partnership, is expected to deliver high-quality training to approximately 375 pupils per year, with a focus on enhancing cycling confidence and safety.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses, particularly those engaged in educational services, training, or cycling-related activities. As the contract aims to bolster cycling in the community, companies that specialise in developing cycling programmes, provide training equipment, or have expertise in the educational sector can benefit from this initiative. SMEs and voluntary or community sector enterprises are highly encouraged to explore such contracts, as they align with the Council's goal of increasing the number of trained cyclists and promoting safe cycling practices within the North East region.

## Notice

Gateshead Council delivers cycle training to primary schools across the Borough and has an in-house team for On-Road National Standard Cycling (Bikeability) training but requires an external training provider to complement the in-house training capacity. Training is required at Level 2 and Level 3 and final reports on successful completion of training must be provided to the Council. It is anticipated that average training delivery by the supplier will be circa 375 pupils per annum, however this may be subject to variation.

The main objectives of the training to be delivered under this Contract are to: * Deliver high quality cycle training to Bikeability standards * Improve cycle skills and road sense * Increase confidence to cycle * Create positive perceptions of cycling * Encourage, enable and facilitate more people to cycle more safely and more often Additional information: This process is being managed electronically through the Councils e-tendering system.
