## Summary

The London Borough of Barking and Dagenham is inviting tenders for the "Provision of John Perry Children's Centre Nursery Services," aimed at organisations capable of delivering quality childcare in the Village ward, Dagenham. This service is critical for children aged three months to five years and is anticipated to commence on 1st September 2016, potentially extending the nursery's capacity from approximately 52 to 68 places. Interested parties must submit their tenders by 10am on 29th March 2016, with additional requirements to ensure compliance with Ofsted standards and a commitment to performance monitoring by the council.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses in the childcare and early years education sector, particularly those with a robust background in managing Ofsted registered nurseries rated "Good" or "Outstanding." The inviting council seeks providers who can partner with them effectively and demonstrate relevant experience. Companies positioned to leverage this opportunity include small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) keen on expanding their service offerings in early childhood education.

## Notice

The London Borough of Barking & Dagenham (the Council) is advertising to seek tenders from suitably qualified and experienced organisations to take on the operation of John Perry Children's Centre Nursery Services. The selected organisations will be expected to work with the Council to ensure the provision of good quality and affordable childcare in its Village ward. John Perry Children's Centre Nursery Address: Auriel Avenue, Dagenham, RM10 8BS - currently an approximately 52 place nursery. However, before the new contract commences, the provision may be extended to allow for up to an additional 16 places. Contract commencement date is expected to be 1st September 2016. The nursery is expected to provide care for children within an age range of three (3) months to five (5) years. Opening hours for the nurseries will be Monday to Friday 8am to 6pm for fifty one (51) weeks a year.

The Nursery is currently run by the Council and will be fully equipped (all equipment to remain the property of the Council) and will have children attending on handover, however, it is expected that no Council staff will be subject to TUPE.
