This tender falls under the category of special education services and has a total value of £4,500,000. The procurement is at the active stage with a contract period of three years, expiring on 31st July 2025. Interested parties should prepare their submissions electronically through the London Tender Portal by following the guidelines set out in the procurement documents, which include various selection criteria pertaining to technical and economic aspects to qualify for the accreditation process. This tender presents significant opportunities for independent and non-maintained special schools seeking to expand their services to Hackney pupils. Businesses specialising in education services, including primary, secondary, and higher education, can benefit from participating in this accreditation process. The procurement allows for numerous providers to be accredited, creating a competitive environment for those looking to establish or enhance their educational offerings in Hackney, particularly for settings such as special post-16 institutions and alternative provision arrangements. ## Notice Hackney Education is ambitious about improving outcomes for children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). Working together with stakeholders, we ensure the individual needs of children and young people in the borough are met with the right support, enabling them to benefit from education, skills and employment opportunities to succeed in life. If you are an independent or non-maintained special school (INMSS) and are educating Hackney pupils, you can apply for a contract and become accredited with Hackney Education via the London Tender Portal. The INMSS accreditation process provides flexibility as new providers can, having met the exclusion and selection criteria, join throughout its duration. There is no limit to the number of providers who can be accredited, and providers who are unsuccessful may re-apply at any time. The accreditation process will be managed online via Hackney's e-procurement portal ProContract under reference DN585609. ### Lot Information Lot 1 Hackney Education is establishing a three year Pseudo Dynamic Purchasing System (PDPS) in compliance with the Light Touch Regime outlined in the Public Contracts Regulations 2015. A PDPS can be used by authorities, where there are a number of providers capable of delivering the services needed and where an element of user choice at the call-off stage is necessary. Providers are required to complete the online accreditation form and submit due diligence documents. The accreditation will be assessed on a pass/ fail basis and all criteria are stated in the procurement documents. Providers who pass the accreditation will be awarded the National Schools and Colleges Contract. A Schedule 2 Individual Placement Agreement will then be implemented for each Hackney learner. The following settings are able to apply to become accredited: Independent Registered School Setting (Primary or Secondary), Non-Maintained Special Schools (Primary or Secondary), 16 to 19 Special Post 16 Institution and Alternative Provision (One-to-one or small group provision at home and in the community). ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/008864-2022 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Dynamic | | 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 | 1 Apr 2022 | | Submission deadline | 31 Jul 2025 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £4,500,000 | | Lots value | £4,500,000 | | 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 | LONDON BOROUGH OF HACKNEY | | Locality | HACKNEY | | Post town | East London | | Postcode | E8 1GQ | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI4 Inner London - East | | ITL 3 | TLI41 Hackney and Newham | | Local authority | Hackney | | Electoral ward | Hackney Central | | Westminster constituency | Hackney South and Shoreditch | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 80 - Education and training services ### Codes - 80100000 - Primary education services - 80200000 - Secondary education services - 80300000 - Higher education services - 80340000 - Special education services ## Release History - 1 Apr 2022 at 14:21 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/008864-2022 ## Notice URLs - http://www.hackney.gov.uk - https://www.londontenders.org/ ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
