This initiative falls within the education services sector and is based in London, England. The open procurement method has been adopted for this project, with the tender period closing on 17 September 2021. The contract period is scheduled to commence on 8 October 2021 and conclude on 31 March 2022. This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses, particularly those involved in education services, research, and consultancy. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are particularly encouraged to participate, providing services such as research design, execution, and market analysis. Companies focusing on professional development and educational strategies would find this an ideal avenue to showcase their capabilities and expand their client base within the further education sector. ## Notice The DfE have commissioned the ETF to conduct a research project which aims to increase our understanding of what works in teaching English. This project will also explore the Centres for Excellence in Maths (CfEM) programme and consider how this could benefit teachers of English. The research will be undertaken with DfE grant funding during 2021-22. This Sector English Strategy study is a first attempt to explore the delivery of English teaching and CPD in the further education and skills (FES) sector. This is a wide-ranging area of delivery with little prior research to draw on, the aim of the study is to establish the broad outlines of delivery in the English classroom, both what works well and what needs to be improved; and from there what the priorities for CPD should be and what approaches may best suit the needs of teachers and managers in the sector. While the sector is and may be struggling with the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on delivery, the focus of this study should be as much as possible on the normal and long-term delivery of English language teaching. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/468d3719-e7bf-41a9-9eb4-656c70b38ec4 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure (below threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 26 Aug 2021 | | Submission deadline | 17 Sep 2021 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 7 Oct 2021 - 31 Mar 2022 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | 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 | THE EDUCATION AND TRAINING FOUNDATION | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | South West London | | Postcode | SW1W 9SP | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI3 Inner London - West | | ITL 3 | TLI35 Westminster and City of London | | Local authority | Westminster | | Electoral ward | Pimlico North | | Westminster constituency | Cities of London and Westminster | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 73 - Research and development services and related consultancy services - 79 - Business services: law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, printing and security - 80 - Education and training services ### Codes - 73110000 - Research services - 73210000 - Research consultancy services - 73300000 - Design and execution of research and development - 79310000 - Market research services - 79315000 - Social research services - 80300000 - Higher education services - 80310000 - Youth education services ## Release History - 26 Aug 2021 at 16:45 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/468d3719-e7bf-41a9-9eb4-656c70b38ec4 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/468d3719-e7bf-41a9-9eb4-656c70b38ec4 26th August 2021 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.mytenders.co.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=AUG162629 NOTE: To register your interest in this notice and obtain any additional information please visit the myTenders Web Site at the link provided. ## Notice URLs - http://www.et-foundation.co.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
