## Summary

As of 25th November 2025, Kingston Upon Hull City Council has finalised an award for a tender focused on providing Musical Instrument and Singing Tuition to schools within their jurisdiction. The process, initiated as an open tender competition under the category of education and training services, received multiple proposals. The successful bidders are Freedom Road Creative Arts, Yorkshire Young Musicians, and Creative Infusions Music Education Ltd, each deemed capable of contributing to the three-year framework with an optional one-year extension. The contract, valued at £120,000, is set to commence on 1st April 2026, and the direct appointment approach within a closed framework agreement provides flexibility for Hull City Council to manage service fulfilment directly with the highest-ranked suppliers.

This contract opens up significant opportunities for businesses within the music education sector, particularly small and medium enterprises, to align their services with local educational needs. Suppliers involved in music education, especially those that are VCSEs, can gain stability and growth through engagement in public sector projects. Furthermore, this framework contract allows for the establishment of long-term partnerships with public authorities, enhancing the reputation and reliability of suppliers in Hull and potentially leading to future opportunities in similar domains. The focus on education and training underscores the importance of experienced music education businesses supplying high-quality, innovative educational services to schools, supporting continuous improvement and social value initiatives within the community.
