## Summary

Leicestershire County Council is procuring a special educational needs (SEN) taxi transport service to Sir Jonathan North College. The requirement falls within transport services and is intended to provide passenger transport for pupils travelling to the college. Delivery is in England, with the named destination being Sir Jonathan North College. This is a service contract rather than a goods or construction opportunity. Businesses should therefore be able to provide suitable taxi or passenger transport operations for SEN passengers and meet the practical requirements of transporting pupils to and from the college. The council is the buying organisation for the service.

The procurement has reached tender: the council invited offers through a selective call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The deadline for submissions was 6 August 2026 at 11:59pm. The contract is scheduled to run from 24 August 2026 to 31 July 2027. Its stated value is £12,156. The opportunity is presented as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises. The procurement concerns one service requirement for the college. The published process does not set out an award evaluation basis in the available details, so suppliers should check the tender requirements before deciding whether to bid.

This opportunity is most relevant to taxi firms and passenger transport operators with the vehicles, drivers and operating arrangements needed to provide SEN journeys to Sir Jonathan North College. It may suit smaller businesses as well as voluntary, community and social enterprises, making it potentially accessible to local or specialist operators rather than only large transport companies. Suppliers should be able to plan and deliver reliable school transport throughout the contract period, support pupils with special educational needs and maintain dependable daily service arrangements. Experience of SEN passenger transport, school contracts or assisted travel would place a business in a strong position to assess the requirement, although the published details do not state particular accreditations or technical qualifications.
