This opportunity falls under the education and training services category and is located in Coventry, England. The tender process is currently in the planning stage, with engagement expected to be completed by 2 October 2020. The procurement method involves pre-registration on the Jaggaer e-procurement system, with a specification set to go live on 7 September 2021 and bids must be submitted by 10am on 2 October 2021. This tender presents significant opportunities for growth, particularly for businesses specialising in educational services and training. Companies with experience in teacher assessment frameworks for key stages 1 and 2, as well as those demonstrating knowledge of English programmes of study, are well-suited to compete. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprise (VCSE) organisations are encouraged to engage, especially those that have recently moderated or have experience with English writing judgement frameworks. ## Notice Information: temporary teacher assessment standardisation roles We will shortly be inviting bids for temporary teacher assessment (TA) deputy standardisation team leader (DSTL) roles at key stage 1 (KS1) and key stage 2 (KS2). These roles will consist of quality assuring training materials, and facilitating at our on-line national moderator training events. National training and standardisation will ensure the TA frameworks (TAFs) are applied accurately and consistently across the country, which will provide a robust and reliable national data set.
