This procurement falls within the education and training services category and aims to enhance the quality and consistency of holiday courses offered across its global centres. The tender, titled "UK_2022_English Content for YL English Language Learning Online/Offline Holiday Course," was published on 8 March 2022, and the submission deadline is set for 1 April 2022. The associated contract period is anticipated to commence on 25 April 2022 and extend until 31 August 2022. This tender presents an excellent opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) specialising in educational content development to expand their business horizons. Given the objective of delivering a globally consistent and high-quality experience for young learners, suppliers with expertise in creating engaging and effective educational materials will find this tender particularly suited to their offerings. Participation in this process could lead to valuable partnerships while contributing to the British Council's mission of improving English language education worldwide. ## Notice British Council activities in English span a global English teaching centre network of 140 centres in 50 countries, teaching 400,000 students each year (of whom approximately 50% are Young Learners) and a portfolio of free and paid-for digital products and services, reaching 120 million English learners (of whom approximately 20% are Young Learners). Many centres in the British Council Network offer Young Learner holiday courses on top of their regular academic year programmes. These courses take place at different times during the year. An initial internal piece of research conducted in late 2018 obtained responses from 26 centres across EA, EU, MENA & South Asia. This research highlighted that these courses are planned locally and vary in length, structure & content. Pre-Covid there were signs that the market for holiday courses was growing & competition from direct & indirect competitors was increasing during holiday periods. We believe there is an opportunity to rationalise our holiday course portfolio and develop a global holiday course which will deliver a consistently high quality and enjoyable experience for our learners and their parents. The British Council is looking to procure the core English language learning content for this project from Supplier(s).
