## Summary

The Council of the Borough of Kirklees has completed the award stage for the "Count Me In Lot 2 Bitesize" procurement, related to education and training services, specifically focusing on community-based numeracy courses. The selective procurement process was conducted as a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system under the Electronic Market Place, Ref: KMCAS-164. The contract, valued at approximately £310,000 over two academic years starting from 1st September 2025 to 31st May 2027, will be delivered in Yorkshire and the Humber, UK. The procurement method offers an opportunity for tutor-led courses with embedded numeracy skills aimed at enhancing real-life mathematical competencies.

This tender represents a valuable opportunity for businesses specialising in adult education and training, particularly those capable of providing tailored, non-accredited numeracy courses. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs), as well as voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSEs), are particularly well-suited to participate, given the flexible funding of up to £10,000 per course under the Bitesize model. The awarded supplier, Yorkshire English School, highlights the potential for regional educational institutions or training providers to competitively engage with local councils for public procurement contracts focused on lifelong learning and community development.

## Notice

The Council of the Borough of Kirklees is seeking to establish a programme for the delivery of tutor-led, non-accredited, community-based numeracy/mathematics courses. The Bitesize model offers funding of up to PS10,000, with delivery expected over a two-year period, providing flexibility and sustainability. We expect courses to be a minimum of 15 guided learning hours (GLH), though longer courses are welcome. All pilot activity should have numeracy embedded-either as a core focus or integrated into the wider learning outcomes-to support the development of essential maths skills in real-life contexts. This procurement exercise for Count Me In (the "Services") is being conducted as a General Further Competition ("Further Competition") under the Electronic Market Place (EMP) Ref: KMCAS-164; Provision of Adult Education, Training, Employment & Lifelong Learning (the "EMP").

The anticipated commencement date for the Call-off Contract(s) is 1st September 2025.
