## Summary

The Real Ideas Organisation is seeking submissions for the "Subcontractor Invitation" tender aimed at providing an academy model for Year 11 school leavers focussed on construction skills. This procurement falls within the education and training industry category, with a total contract value of £5,000. Key dates include the tender period which ends on 13 May 2022, and the contract period starting from 27 June 2022 to 5 August 2022. The procurement method is an open procedure, allowing a broad range of competitors to apply.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for organisations that specialise in education, training services, or apprenticeship programmes, particularly those with experience in the construction sector. Businesses well-suited to compete include small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) looking to expand their services to include vocational training for young individuals. Engaging with this tender could facilitate connections with employers in the construction industry, fostering potential recruitment pathways for apprenticeships.

## Notice

We are looking for the provision of an academy model for Year 11 school leavers to access aimed at those who would like to move into paid apprenticeships rather than a full-time college pathway at 16. We will want a range of opportunities to try various construction skills and witness first-hand the real-world experience of life on a working construction site. We will want to know that they have the chance to meet and network with contractors who are looking to recruit apprentices and will want the provider to demonstrate how interested parties will be able to meet with each other in a 'meet the employer' environment where there is a real chance of employment into an apprenticeship for the right candidate. Additional information: Please download the attachment and follow the application instructions
