## Summary

Oxfordshire County Council commenced a procurement process titled "Mental Health Primary Schools Offer," falling under the Health and Social Work Services industry category, to implement a mental health prevention programme for primary school-aged children. Originally at the tender stage, this process involved an open procurement method where proposals were accepted until 21 May 2026. The intention was to start the contract on 1 September 2026 across the United Kingdom. However, on 17 July 2026, the Council terminated the procurement, citing the necessity to revise its documents and requirements before announcing a revised tender opportunity in the near future.

This suspended tender presents potential growth opportunities for businesses specialising in mental health services, particularly those familiar with school-based interventions. The service involves professional development for school staff, making it suitable for organisations with a track record in educational health delivery or programmes centred on child mental wellbeing. This opportunity caters well to SMEs due to its noted suitability, offering them a platform to expand their services and collaborate closely with local government bodies once the updated tender is re-issued.

## Notice

The aim of service is to provide an early mental health prevention offer for primary school aged children and their families. The service will enable staff to have the confidence to lead mental wellbeing sessions for children using the appropriate language and techniques as part of a whole school approach to mental health. This will include a professional development programme for school staff and ongoing support to embed the approach throughout the school curriculum.

### Planning Information

Market engagement conducted from June-August 2025 included a desktop review of potential providers in the market. Initial expression of interest meetings were held
