## Summary

Essex County Council has completed the procurement process for the contract titled "CO0299 Multiply - Lot 2 - November 2023," focusing on education and training services. The project, valued at £250,000, aims to provide foundational mathematics training for parents and carers in Essex, helping them to better support their children's schoolwork and advance their own numeracy skills. The contract period is from 3rd January 2024 to 2nd January 2025, with the procurement method being a restricted procedure. The tendering phase ended on 27th November 2023, and the award was made on 15th December 2023. Training will be delivered in various accessible locations across England, such as schools and community centres, and will consist of 6 to 10 guided learning hours per session.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in educational services, particularly those capable of delivering numeracy training to adult learners. SMEs and VCSEs are encouraged to participate, with the contract awarded to Quest Training South East Limited and The International Education Group Limited (TiEGr). These businesses can leverage this opportunity to demonstrate their expertise in implementing educational programmes that foster intergenerational learning and provide essential life skills. The initiative not only supports parents in their roles but also opens avenues for business growth through community engagement and educational innovation.

## Notice

The purpose of this competition for Lot 2 "Family Learning - supporting parents with children's schoolwork" is to invite bids to create and deliver training provision for parents wanting to increase their numeracy skills in order to help their children with schoolwork, and also help with their own progression. Provision should enhance and scale up the family learning offer in Essex, whilst providing opportunities for parents to learn some valuable skills for life too. Proposed curriculums for this provision should directly link to the current Mathematics curriculum as part of the National Curriculum for pupils in Key Stage 1 and/or Key Stage 2. Eligible target learners are parents and carers 19+ who have not previously attained a GCSE Grade 4/C or higher maths qualification and would like to enhance their knowledge. Learners will also have the opportunity to specifically learn how to support their child's/children's learning in the broader subject area of Maths. It is the intention that the provision will be delivered in locations that are convenient and easily accessible for learners, such as schools, nurseries and community settings. Bidders will ensure that this is a safe and appropriate learning environment. Learning sessions will enable skills sharing through creative intergenerational interactions and reflective learning and encourage increased understanding between individuals of different age groups. Aligned to family learning, the offer should also help to build confidence and provide appropriate careers education, information, advice and guidance to enable parents and carers to kickstart their own adult learning. Expected duration of training courses is between 6 to 10 guided learning hours.
