## Summary

The Department for Education is planning a tender entitled "Benchmarking Report Cards," aimed at the data-processing services industry.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in data-processing services, particularly those with experience in educational analytics and reporting.

The extensive reach of the project across various regions in the UK also presents additional scope for service providers to expand their presence within the educational sector.

## Notice

We are issuing a Tender to enable us to produce Benchmarking Report Cards (BRC) for schools and academies. We require services to produce BRC PDF files based on data we provide and for them to be sent these out to all local authority-maintained schools and academies. We issue benchmarking report cards to all maintained schools and academies using financial data as it becomes available for maintained schools and academies. The intention of doing so is to maintain the momentum for benchmarking among schools and to act as a prompt for schools to visit the benchmarking website. The use of benchmarking helps schools inform their spending decisions and make sure that resources are put to their best possible use. The full specification of requirements will be included in ITT documentation which will be published in August 2022. To submit an expression of interest please email Samantha.turnbull@education.gov.uk on or before 6 July 2022.
