## Summary

Doncaster Council, in partnership with the Doncaster Opportunity Area, has initiated a tender process for the "Post 16 Mentoring Support" project, aimed at enhancing educational support for year 12 students. The procurement falls under the education and training services category, with a total budget of £60,000. This active tender was published on 23rd September 2020, and the submission deadline for proposals is set for 7th October 2020. The contract period will commence on 24th November 2020 and extend until 31st August 2021, with services to be delivered primarily in the Yorkshire and the Humber region of the United Kingdom. The procurement method is categorised as "Other", indicating the potential for various purchasing approaches.

This tender represents an excellent opportunity for businesses involved in educational services and training, particularly those specialising in mentoring and support for young students. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) would be well-suited to compete for this contract, given its focus on local partnerships. Companies that can deliver services at scale and adapt to the challenges posed by the recent COVID-19 lockdown are likely to find this tender particularly relevant for expanding their market reach within the educational sector.

## Notice

Doncaster Council, in partnership with Doncaster Opportunity Area, is seeking to appoint a partner to work with local post 16 providers to support and mentor year 12 students to help ensure that they remain in education, employment and training. Ideally, with the provider they are currently or where appropriate with an alternate provider. Doncaster Opportunity Area anticipates a need in the market for this service as a result of the recent COVID lockdown and there is a gap in the council's supply chain to deliver this at the scale required.
