## Notice

Nottinghamshire County Council is seeking to establish an Associate list for Psychology Services, using a Light Touch Regime style Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS). The list will be for individual Associates able to provide support to the Council's Psychology Services teams, including the Educational Psychology Service (EPS), Virtual School (VS) for Looked After Children, and the Coping with Risky Behaviours (CRB) service. By using a DPS the Council wants to ensure that all qualified Associates have the opportunity to supply their services when they want to. Under a DPS Associates will be able to submit their application at any point in time whilst the list is in operation and these applications will be evaluated periodically. These services will cover the requirements for the following four services. Associates may apply to be included in any list, subject to having the necessary qualifications; * Lot 1: Educational Psychologist Associate * Lot 2: Virtual School Associate * Lot 3: Coping with Risky Behaviours Associate This provider list is aimed primarily at individual applicants. However agencies / organisations may apply, on behalf of consultants they represent, as long as the application specifically identifies the individual candidates with enough detail for the panel to score them in the same manner as individual applicants. Note candidates may not be substituted at point of referral.
