## Summary

The Skills Funding Agency is seeking subject matter experts to develop training modules for Relationships, Sex and Health Education (RSHE), specifically aimed at enhancing the skills of teachers in delivering this curriculum in primary education. The procurement process is currently at the award stage, with an open procurement method employed for this contract. The total value of the contract is £1,000, and it covers services classified under education and training. The contract period is set to commence on 22nd April 2020 and conclude by 30th September 2020, following the tender phase, which ended on 27th March 2020.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in educational content creation, particularly those experienced in developing online training resources for educators. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) may find this contract particularly well-suited to their capabilities, especially those with expertise in safeguarding and mental health training relevant to young students. The collaborative nature of this project suggests that organisations with innovative approaches to educational delivery will be highly regarded.

## Notice

Subject Experts to create training modules for Relationships, Sex and Health Education (RSHE) The purpose of the subject matter experts review is to provide children and young people with the knowledge to lead safe, healthy and happy lives. Some of the statutory content will need to be handled with particular care and sensitivity, for example on safeguarding and mental health, and the Authority is committed to supporting high quality teaching. As part of this commitment, the Authority wants to provide teachers with a single point of access to online training modules that are aligned to the areas that teachers have told us, through research that they find most challenging. These training modules will be published alongside other support materials for schools such as the implementation guide, case studies and quality assured resources. The topics below have been identified by teachers as areas they find most challenging to teach and therefore require training. There may be other areas that schools identify as a training need when we begin to test the modules with a wider pool of schools during development. The Contractor shall work with the Authority's digital content developer to design the training modules set out in the specification for use in schools.
