## Summary

The Department for Education is seeking a provider for a Breakfast Club programme, aiming to enhance the health and education of children at over 1,500 state-funded schools across various regions in the United Kingdom. This initiative, which has a total funding of £26 million (including VAT), is currently in the award stage after the tender process concluded on 15 November 2017. The contract period spans from 9 March 2018 until 31 March 2020, and the procurement method employed is an open procedure above the threshold. Interested suppliers can access the tender documents via the Bravo Solutions e-tendering portal.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for organisations specialising in educational services, particularly those focused on child welfare and innovative school support solutions. Businesses with experience in providing breakfast services, educational resources, or community support initiatives will be well-positioned to compete. The programme also encourages bids from consortia or lead suppliers with capable subcontractors, which may include large charitable organisations, due to the focused nature of the initiative targeting disadvantaged schools.

## Notice

The breakfast club programme will contribute to improvements in the health and education of children by encouraging innovation and supporting at least 1,500 state-funded primary, secondary and special schools and Pupil Referral Units (PRUs) to deliver self-sustaining and accessible breakfast clubs. It will target the most disadvantaged schools with a focus on Opportunity Areas to ensure support is provided to pupils who need it most. The programme will also include funding for an innovation project(s) to test solutions to delivery and access barriers to provision, and approaches to enhancing the education, health and wider socioeconomic benefits. The Department will award a single contract for the delivery of the programme. Bids from a consortia and/or a lead supplier with a supply chain of sub-contractors are welcome. Additional information: Access to the tender documents is via Bravo Solutions e tendering portal. Interested bidders will need to set up a bravo account using the link in this notice and will then be able to view the full suite of ITT documents.
