## Summary

Barnsley Metropolitan Borough Council is currently conducting an open tender for a "Parent / Carer Training Programme" intended to enhance the support provided by family centres across the Yorkshire and the Humber region. The tender, classified under education and training services, has a budget of £30,000 and is actively open until 6th February 2019. The contract is set to commence on 11th February 2019 and will run until 31st March 2019. The primary focus is to train 37 family support workers to deliver evidence-based parent/carer education programmes targeted at children and young people aged 0 to 25 years, particularly for those with special educational needs or disabilities.

This tender presents considerable opportunities for businesses that specialise in educational training services, especially those with experience in delivering tailored training solutions for family support and parenting initiatives. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary and community sector enterprises (VCSEs) are particularly encouraged to apply, given the suitability criteria outlined by the council. Providers that can demonstrate a capability to deliver training programmes to diverse audience groups, including parents of teenagers and special needs children, will be well-positioned to compete for this contract and contribute to the borough's wider parenting strategy.

## Notice

Family centres deliver integrated services offering a variety of provision according to the needs of local families. Family Centres bring together practitioners from a range of universal, targeted and specialist services in each local area including schools, police, social care, private and voluntary sector and some adult services. We are currently developing a borough wide parenting strategy and we see this training package as a route through which we can provide the skills to the workforce to deliver a co-ordinated package of support to families on a tiered basis across the broader age range. To enable us to effectively meet the needs of our expanded 0-19 (25 years with a disability) age range we require a package of train the trainer training to be delivered to our 37 family support workers that will enable each delegate to deliver evidence based parent/carer education programmes to meet the needs of the age range. The training should also enable the delivery of interventions to focussed and targeted groups in particular parents/carers of teenagers and parents/carers of children or young people with special educational needs or disabilities.
