This is the second tender for this project, which follows an earlier attempt that was deemed insufficiently competitive. The current tender, classified under Education and Training Services and Health and Social Work Services, is an open procedure that invites interested providers to ensure high-quality, flexible education services for children. The tender period will close on 10th January 2022, with the contract set to commence on 1st September 2022 and continue until 31st August 2030. This opportunity presents a significant chance for businesses, particularly those specialising in educational and educational support services, to engage in a partnership approach with Cornwall Council. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are particularly encouraged to apply, as the Council aims to foster a diverse range of providers. The successful tenderers will be expected to contribute innovatively to educational experiences, ensuring that they cater to the specific needs of young learners in Cornwall, thereby enhancing their growth and community integration. ## Notice Cornwall Council previously advertised this contract on 7th September 2021 (DN549016) Publication reference: 2021/S 000-022162)). The previous procurement (DN549016) has been abandoned due to the process not being sufficiently competitive. The Council is now re-advertising the contract in a new procurement (DN586659) under the provisions of Regulation 27 (Open procedure - Regulations 27(4) and 27(5) accelerated procedure). Without prejudice to the procurement exercise the Council would welcome your interest to participate. Cornwall Council wishes to commission a Provider to ensure high quality alternative education is provided for children and young people, through a partnership approach with a number of providers to ensure a range of high quality, cost effective provision in Cornwall, which enables a flexible approach and range of provision based on the needs and circumstances of the young people who require this service. Our expectation is that Cornwall's Medical AP Provider will make a profound and meaningful contribution in maximising the engagement of learners through successful Partnership working that includes innovative approaches to learning and provision. Our Medical AP Provider will ensure that parents, carers and Corporate Parents of learners and schools will be fully involved and informed regarding learner progress, achievements and educational experience. Our medical AP Provider will ensure that learners accessing this provision are educated in an inclusive, holistic manner that ensures academic progress and social, emotional and personal development in order to enable learners to reach their true potential and become fully functioning citizens within their local communities. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/2068fa5f-d38b-4f00-aae2-76b98b4e9ecd | | 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 | 15 Dec 2021 | | Submission deadline | 10 Jan 2022 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 31 Aug 2022 - 31 Aug 2030 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £12,800,000 | | 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 | CORNWALL COUNCIL | | Locality | TRURO | | Post town | Truro | | Postcode | TR1 3AY | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLK South West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLK3 Cornwall and Isles of Scilly | | ITL 3 | TLK30 Cornwall and Isles of Scilly | | Local authority | Cornwall | | Electoral ward | Truro Boscawen & Redannick | | Westminster constituency | Truro and Falmouth | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 80 - Education and training services - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 80000000 - Education and training services - 85000000 - Health and social work services ## Release History - 15 Dec 2021 at 20:06 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/2068fa5f-d38b-4f00-aae2-76b98b4e9ecd ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/2068fa5f-d38b-4f00-aae2-76b98b4e9ecd 15th December 2021 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder ## Notice URLs - http://www.cornwall.gov.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
