## Summary

The Education and Training Foundation is currently overseeing the procurement process for the project titled "Career Pathways to FE Teaching - North Area," which is aimed at promoting teaching careers in further education (FE). This tender is classified under the Education and training services industry and covers regions in the North of England, including North East, North West, Yorkshire, and Humberside. The procurement is actively in the tender stage, with submissions accepted until 18th April 2019. Once awarded, the successful contracts will start from 26th April 2019 and run until 31st March 2020. The procurement method being used is an open procedure, suitable for both small and medium enterprises as well as voluntary, community, and social enterprises.

This tender presents an excellent opportunity for businesses involved in education services, recruitment, and career guidance. Companies that specialise in organising placements, mentorship programmes, or vocational training are particularly well-suited to compete for this contract. Additionally, organisations that can facilitate connections between final-year students and FE providers will find this tender aligns well with their capabilities, potentially leading to significant growth in their operational scope within the education sector.

## Notice

This is the second of three invitations to tender on this topic. The ETF seeks to encourage final year undergraduates and post graduates to consider a career in teaching in FE. One approach to this is to get such students to spend some time in FE providers (colleges or independent Training Providers (ITPs)), helping with the delivery. The ETF is seeking a tenderer to organise mentored placements with FE sector providers and facilitating this by offering financial incentives to the students and operational funding to the colleges/ITPs. The successfully appointed tenderer will research and compile a list of local vacancies including part time teaching vacancies which will be made available to participants. We are seeking to award three contracts in separate regions for this work across England. The successfully appointed tenderer will be expected to work across one of the following English FE areas: North, Central and South: This ITT is for the North area including the North West, North East, Yorkshire and Humberside FE regions. The successfully appointed tenderers for each region will be expected to work together to share good practice. Separate ITTs have been published for the Central and South regions. Tenderers wishing to bid for more than one region must complete a separate tender response document for each.
