This initiative falls under the research services category and aims to gain insights into the experiences of Gypsy, Roma, and Traveller children within the borough. The procurement process is currently completed, with the award announced on 20th December 2021, and the contract duration extends until 19th June 2022. The research is set to commence post-award, with a deliverable due by the end of April 2022. The total contract value is £22,500, and the procurement method used was an open procedure below the threshold, which closed on 4th November 2021.

This tender creates significant opportunities for researchers and consultancies focused on social studies, particularly those with expertise in the educational experiences of minority groups. Businesses specialising in qualitative research or community engagement will find this project particularly well-suited for their skillset. The council's initiative aims to improve local educational strategies for the GRT community, opening avenues for firms that can provide insightful, culturally-sensitive knowledge and methodologies regarding the challenges faced by these children and families.

## Notice

The London borough of Hillingdon (LBH) is looking for a piece of research/ case study about the experience of its Gypsy, Roma, Traveller (GRT) children. LBH are undertaking a focussed programme to improve the experience of GRT children and families in education. LBH need to find out more about the experiences of Hillingdon GRT children through a piece of research that gives a personal and local picture that can be used to address barriers with schools, colleges, agencies in the council that work with GRT families, and with the families themselves. LBH see this personal piece of work as essential to set a baseline to inform our strategy for the future. LBH are keen to hear from researchers who are interested in undertaking this work through the Council's competitive tendering process. Duration of research will take place from award of contract (indicative start date from December), the research is expected to be completed and delivered by end of April 2022 or within 6 months
