This tender, titled "Prae Wood Primary School Catering," falls under the school catering services category and operates under a selective procurement method. The tender period is active and is set to close on 16th August 2021 at 13:00, with an invitation for the second stage of the process scheduled for 17th September 2021. The contract has an initial term of three years, with the potential for renewal for up to two additional years, offering a duration of 1800 days. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in catering services, particularly those with experience in delivering school meal programs. Companies capable of providing nutritious and varied menu options to meet the specific needs of school children, as well as adhering to dietary regulations, would find this process particularly relevant. Additionally, businesses that can efficiently manage meal volumes corresponding to an anticipated pupil increase at the school would be well-suited to compete effectively in this tender. ## Notice Prae Wood Primary School is a two-form entry school for children from 3 to 11 years old and are pleased to be able to provide a stimulating educational experience for the local children. An inclusive school, they are proud of their 'mission statement' of Everyone Valued, Everyone Learning, and think this reflects very well of their ethos and philosophy. Their school logo is based on the reverse of a bronze coin discovered on the site of the school. The coin, which shows a leaping horse and a bull's head, was produced by King Cunobelinus, the leader of the Catuvellauni tribe (the capital of which was Verulamium, that is St Albans). The coin was produced sometime between AD20 and AD43. ### Lot Information Lot 1 SCHOOL DETAILS School Address Prae Wood Primary School 01727 751930 King Harry Lane, St Albans, Hertfordshire, AL3 4AS Pupils Number on roll projected 21/22 Pupil Numbers: - by year group PAN 459 from Sep 2021; projected actual numbers based on accepted places 443 Nursery 39 KS1 173 projected KS2 231 projected Pricings/Sales Eligibility numbers based on 443 (Projected Sept 21as PAN increases to 459), current take up on 1 week period from 21th June 2021 to 25th June 2021 when no bubbles closed due to covid.(PAN 444,ACTUAL 428) UIFSM (2 week period) Entitled: 168 Uptake: 136 Value: 2.34 GBP FSM Entitled: 25 (5 inKS1 and 20 in KS2) Uptake: 14 Value: 2.34 GBP Nursery No of Children: 39 Uptake: 14.8 (various throughout the year) Value: 2.00 GBP Pupil Paid Meal No of Children: 211 Uptake: 54 Value: 2.50 GBP Staff Duty Meal Entitled: 7 (varies) Uptake: 4 Value: 2.50 GBP Staff Cash Meals No of Staff: 65 Uptake: 2 Value: 2.50 GBP Sales Period Used 01/03/2019 29/02/2020; meal rate was 2.35 GBP, note pupil numbers will increase in September 2021 from a PAN of 429 to 444 UIFSM Sales 64,754 GBP FSM Sales 6,619 GBP Nursery Sales 4,116 GBP Pupil Paid Meal Sales 48,435 GBP Staff Duty Meal Sales 2,152 GBP Staff Cash Sales 1,666 GBP Hospitality Sales Minimal we budget 200GBP pa for inset days Lunch Service 11:40 - 13:15 Autumn Term 11:30 start for the first few weeks when lunchtime starts Current Contractor Pabulum Renewal: Three year initial term with option for client to renew for up to two further years ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/016493-2021 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Selective | | Procurement method details | Restricted procedure | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 14 Jul 2021 | | Submission deadline | 16 Aug 2021 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | 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 | Active | | Lots status | Active | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | PRAE WOOD PRIMARY SCHOOL | | Locality | ST ALBANS | | Post town | Not specified | | Postcode | AL3 4TS | | Country | Not specified | | ITL 1 | Not specified | | ITL 2 | Not specified | | ITL 3 | Not specified | | Local authority | Not specified | | Electoral ward | Not specified | | Westminster constituency | Not specified | | Delivery location | TLH23 Hertfordshire CC | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 55 - Hotel, restaurant and retail trade services ### Codes - 55524000 - School catering services ## Release History - 14 Jul 2021 at 12:55 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/016493-2021 ## Notice URLs - http://www.mytenders.org - http://www.rmandcconsultants.co.uk - https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/public-procurement-review-service-scope-and-remit - https://www.mytenders.co.uk/Search/Search_Switch.aspx?ID=223356 - https://www.mytenders.co.uk/search/Search_AuthProfile.aspx?ID=AA9341 - https://www.mytenders.co.uk/sitehelp/help_guides.aspx ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
