This tender, titled "Develop modules to teach Functional Skills in Maths and English for initial teacher training and CPD," falls within the education and training services sector. It is currently at the active stage of the procurement process, with a submission deadline set for 24th January 2017. The comprehensive contract is valued at £45,000, and the delivery of the modules is expected to commence from 30th January 2017 and conclude by 30th June 2017, covering various regions across the United Kingdom. This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses, particularly those providing educational services or training materials focused on Functional Skills. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) would be well-suited to compete for this contract, as it encourages innovative educational solutions that empower new and existing teachers. Engaging with this tender could help organisations expand their portfolio in educational services and enhance their market presence in the training sector. ## Notice This Invitation to Tender (ITT) aims to produce two modules to support the teaching of Functional Skills maths and English, one for each subject. The key purpose is to ensure that both new teachers of these subjects and those already teaching, but possibly recently transferred from other areas, are conversant with effective practice and have the confidence to teach learners with skills below Level 2 in maths and English, and support their achievement. The modules are not intended to support the personal maths or English skills of teachers, rather the pedagogy of these subjects at this level. Practitioners wishing to undertake these modules, as part of a Level 5 Diploma in Education and Training (DET) qualification or as CPD, will be required to demonstrate level 3 process skills and personal skills through a qualification or initial assessment. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/27ac2f62-93d4-463f-920e-a991b169b0e8 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 20 Dec 2016 | | Submission deadline | 24 Jan 2017 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 30 Jan 2017 - 30 Jun 2017 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £45,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | EDUCATION AND TRAINING FOUNDATION | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | South West London | | Postcode | SW1W 9SP | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI3 Inner London - West | | ITL 3 | TLI35 Westminster and City of London | | Local authority | Westminster | | Electoral ward | Pimlico North | | Westminster constituency | Cities of London and Westminster | | Delivery location | TLC North East (England), TLD North West (England), TLE Yorkshire and The Humber, TLF East Midlands (England), TLG West Midlands (England), TLI London, TLJ South East (England), TLK South West (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 80 - Education and training services ### Codes - 80000000 - Education and training services - 80400000 - Adult and other education services ## Release History - 20 Dec 2016 at 17:45 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/27ac2f62-93d4-463f-920e-a991b169b0e8 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/27ac2f62-93d4-463f-920e-a991b169b0e8 20th December 2016 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - http://www.mytenders.org/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=DEC136390 NOTE: To register your interest in this notice and obtain any additional information please visit the myTenders Web Site at the link provided. ## Notice URLs - http://www.et-foundation.co.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
