## Summary

The Education and Training Foundation is currently seeking proposals for a tender titled "Whole organisational strategic leadership of SEND provision." This initiative falls under the education and training services industry category and aims to enhance professional development for leadership in special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) provision. The tendering period concluded on 12th October 2016, while the contract is expected to commence on 31st October 2016 and last until 31st March 2017. This procurement process follows an open procedure, inviting a competitive engagement from the market.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in educational services, especially those focused on leadership development and training for SEND. Companies that provide innovative training solutions or have experience working with providers in the further education sector will find this particularly pertinent. Additionally, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to consider participation, given the emphasis on fostering inclusive educational environments across various regions in the UK.

## Notice

We are looking to commission professional development opportunities for the leadership of SEND provision. We want to build the capacity of providers to embed support for all learners with SEND, including those without an Education, Health and Care (EHC) plan or Learning Difficulty Assessment (LDA), throughout curriculum areas, encouraging a 'whole provider' approach. The learning and development opportunity could also include support for senior leaders to work in partnership with external organisations, contribute to the local authority 'Local Offer' and take part in wider strategic planning for further education in the local area.
