## Summary

The Kent County Council is currently in the planning stage of a procurement process titled "NMISS Emergency Placements Feb 2022", aimed at identifying additional capacity within Independent and Non-Maintained Special Schools for children with varied additional needs. This opportunity is focused on primary education services and requires submissions through the Kent Business Portal, with interested schools expected to complete a capacity spreadsheet. The deadline for expressing interest is set for February 2022, in relation to placements made through the Kent County Council's Special Educational Needs (SEN) Teams.

This procurement presents a significant opportunity for schools and educational service providers that can accommodate children with additional needs. Institutions capable of providing day placements within Kent or nearby locations are particularly suited to engage in this process. By participating, schools can increase their visibility and potentially expand their enrolment, while also contributing to the local educational landscape and meeting the demands for special education provision.

## Notice

This notice is for the purpose of identifying capacity within Independent and Non-Maintained Special Schools for children with a variety of additional needs. Capacity will be required in February 2022. There will not be a formal tender process for this, the Council is seeking knowledge on current school capacity or potential capacity with the aim of consolidating this information. Placements will be made through the currently established SEN process.
