## Summary

The recent procurement process titled "International Recruitment Brokerage Support - PD Leadership Services" was initiated by the Department for Education in England, aimed at enhancing the recruitment of teachers. With a focus on the education and training services industry, the tender process, classified as selective and executed via a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system, concluded its tender period on 2nd August 2017, and the contract is set to run from 2nd October 2017 until 26th January 2018. The awarded contract is worth £10,800 and engages suppliers to assist schools in selecting suitable teachers from an international candidate pool, thereby addressing teacher vacancies effectively.

This procurement represents significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in international recruitment services, particularly those with expertise in educational staffing solutions. Companies capable of providing comprehensive support to schools—including communications, guidance, and candidate selection—would be well-positioned to compete for this contract. The initiative encourages participation from small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) eager to contribute to the recruitment strategies set by the Department for Education, thereby expanding their market reach and enhancing their service offerings in the education sector.

## Notice

The Department for Education is committed to ensuring that schools are able to recruit appropriately to fill their teacher vacancies. We are working to grow a strong pipeline of teachers from within England and have a package of measures in place to support both recruitment of trainees and retention of existing teachers. To support these national initiatives, and as we grow the domestic pipeline of teachers, we have instigated some international recruitment initiatives. NCTL is seeking to work with experienced service providers (up to three) in the coming term, to work closely with school leaders. They will support schools in selecting and recruiting suitable teachers from an established overseas candidate pool. The service will include, providing expert communications and guidance to schools and selected candidates in respect to the recruitment process, in line with the model agreed for international teacher initiatives. Service providers may be called upon to deliver activities, which will encourage school registration to international teacher initiatives; this may include but not limited to, attendance at events and seminars to promote opportunities and engagement with school networks.
