## Summary

Wiltshire Council is overseeing the Melksham Oak Community School Expansion Project, aimed at increasing school capacity to accommodate an additional 253 secondary pupils due to new housing developments in the area. This construction work, classified under the CPV code 45000000, has a total value of £4,772,183 and is set to commence on 3rd August 2020, with completion expected by 28th May 2021. The procurement method for this tender involves a mini-competition under the Pagabo Medium Works Framework, and the tender period concluded on 22nd November 2019.

This expansion project presents a significant opportunity for businesses in the construction industry, particularly those specialising in educational facility developments and large-scale construction works. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to participate, as there is a focus on local suppliers who can efficiently manage the project within the defined timeline. Companies with expertise in building classrooms, laboratories, and infrastructure improvements are well-suited to compete for this contract.

## Notice

Wiltshire Council has identified that there are 2,370 additional houses outlined in the Wiltshire Core Strategy that are to be built within the Melksham Oak Community School's catchment area, generating an additional 253 secondary aged pupils. This forecast demand for secondary school places is expected to begin to have an impact on current places at the school from the 2021/Academic Year. Consequently, there is a need to increase the capacity of the school by 240 places by June 2021 in order to meet the forecast demand from additional houses through the construction of a new teaching block on land within the school site. The proposed new teaching block is to accommodate new maths classrooms, science labs, dining facilities and a 6th form element. The proposed building is to be located within the Melksham Oak Community School Campus, to the north-east of the existing teaching blocks. The development also includes associated landscaping and additional parking provision to suit the expansion. The Council intends to appoint a single contractor to undertake the expansion works following the successful conclusion of a mini-competition held under the Pagabo Medium Works Framework.
