This initiative aims to ensure all children and young people in the region have equitable opportunities, contributing to an inclusive economy and addressing child poverty. The framework, categorised under Education and Training Services (CPV code 80000000), will be accepting applications until 30th August 2024. The procurement process is currently at the tender stage, with the resulting contracts expected to run from 1st October 2024 to 31st August 2025 across various regions in England, United Kingdom. This tender represents a significant opportunity for both public and private sector organisations, independent training providers, and VCSE organisations to secure a place within the framework. With a funding allocation of £50 million, the initiative supports education improvement and poverty prevention programmes, creating numerous business growth prospects. SMEs and VCSEs are encouraged to participate in this open procedure, which is above threshold, provided they can deliver services focused on the development and support of children and young people. The procurement not only fosters regional development but also promotes collaboration among diverse stakeholders, potentially leading to further business opportunities in future public sector contracts. ## Notice The funding for children and young people's programmes intends to build an inclusive economy, where all children and young people have equal opportunities to realise their potential and be part of the region's future success. To achieve this, we are reopening the Children and Young People's Flexible Procurement Framework and inviting a wide range of organisations and providers including public and private sector, independent training organisations, Voluntary and Community Sector Organisations (VCSE) organisations and other stakeholders, to tender for a place on the Framework. The Flexible Procurement Framework will initially be utilised to procure providers for North East CA investment fund allocation for education improvement and child poverty prevention programmes.
