The tender, titled "Cambridgeshire County Council Early Years Associate Advisers," was published on 10 January 2017, and interested parties are invited to submit their applications by 2 February 2017. The procurement process employs an open procedure, with the selected advisers expected to begin their support roles on 1 March 2017, extending through to 31 July 2019. This tender presents an excellent opportunity for businesses specialising in early years education, childcare, and playwork, particularly those in the Private, Voluntary and Independent (PVI) sector, to engage with local authorities. Companies that have experience with pre-school education services and out-of-school care for children aged 3-14 years would be particularly well-suited to compete. By securing a position on this framework, businesses can expand their service offerings while contributing to the development of early years education in the region. ## Notice Associate Advisers for Early Years and Playwork (including Schools) Following a successful first round in Autumn 2016, the Cambridgeshire Early Years Service is seeking further associate advisers.
