This framework, specifically within the education and training services category (CPV code 80000000), covers numerous regions across the United Kingdom, including North East, North West, Yorkshire and the Humber, East Midlands, West Midlands, East of England, London, South East, and South West. The procurement method employed was an open procurement under a "light touch regime." The tender phase concluded on 14th October 2025, with the contract period running from 1st December 2025 until 30th March 2029. Notably, the framework's completion does not guarantee immediate work; however, additional curriculum-related tasks may be allocated up to the framework's expiry in 2029. The most recent update concerning this contract was published on 15th January 2026. This tender provides various opportunities for businesses, particularly those specialising in educational services, to gain significant growth prospects. It is especially suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSE), as these types of organisations are encouraged to participate. The framework's extensive regional coverage allows businesses with operations in multiple areas of the UK to significantly enhance their service footprint. The procurement process, having employed a light touch regime, implies a less burdensome administrative requirement, opening the field up to businesses that can efficiently manage large-scale educational projects or supply staff specialised in curriculum drafting. Successful appointment to this framework positions businesses as preferred suppliers for future educational projects managed by the Department for Education. ## Notice Following completion of the evaluation process, the Department for Education has appointed multiple suppliers/individuals to Lot 10 - Curriculum Subject Drafters under the ECSC Framework. Please note: Appointment to the ECSC Framework does not guarantee any work at the time of publishing this notice. The framework will remain active until 2029, and additional curriculum-related work may be allocated in the future. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/e1d8bb25-7f4b-415c-acd7-e7af3bb7089a | | Notice type | Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Other - Open Procurement - light touch regime | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Large | | All stages | Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 15 Jan 2026 | | Submission deadline | 14 Oct 2025 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 1 Dec 2025 | | Contract period | 1 Dec 2025 - 30 Mar 2029 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Active | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | DEPARTMENT FOR EDUCATION | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | South West London | | Postcode | SW1P 3BT | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI3 Inner London - West | | ITL 3 | TLI35 Westminster and City of London | | Local authority | Westminster | | Electoral ward | St James's | | Westminster constituency | Cities of London and Westminster | | Delivery location | TLC North East (England), TLD North West (England), TLE Yorkshire and The Humber, TLF East Midlands (England), TLG West Midlands (England), TLI London, TLJ South East (England), TLK South West (England) | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | SEE THE ATTACHED LIST OF SUPPLIERS APPOINTED TO LOT 10 OF THE | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 80 - Education and training services ### Codes - 80000000 - Education and training services ## Release History - 15 Jan 2026 at 17:32 - AwardUpdate - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/e1d8bb25-7f4b-415c-acd7-e7af3bb7089a - 15 Jan 2026 at 17:30 - AwardUpdate - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/e1d8bb25-7f4b-415c-acd7-e7af3bb7089a - 18 Dec 2025 at 12:21 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/e1d8bb25-7f4b-415c-acd7-e7af3bb7089a ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/e1d8bb25-7f4b-415c-acd7-e7af3bb7089a 15th January 2026 - Awarded contract notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/6b5ab726-5feb-48be-955b-bd7b5b63b879 n/a - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/f967ed83-9fb7-4853-9961-a3f4b087b365 n/a ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
