## Summary

The London Borough of Southwark is currently running a tender for the "Primary Schools in to Theatre" programme, aimed at providing every primary child in the borough a free visit to the theatre annually. The procurement process is in the Tender stage, with applications open until 28 June 2019. The project falls under the services category, particularly focusing on educational services, and has a total contract value of £500,000. Interested bidders should note that the contract is scheduled to commence on 22 July 2019 and will run until 31 March 2022. An open day event will take place on 3 June 2019 at Southwark Council Offices to provide further details and facilitate one-on-one discussions with the Culture Team.
