## Summary

Surrey County Council procured specialist school transport for one student aged 14–16 receiving special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) provision at NESCOT in Epsom. The requirement is for one saloon car with four passenger seats and no personal assistant. The student is located in Horley, and the school is in Epsom, so the service involves transporting the student between those locations. This is a passenger transport service, classified under CPV 60000000. The commissioning organisation is Surrey County Council, a sub-central public authority. The requirement is focused on safe, suitable individual transport for a school placement rather than a general bus or fleet service.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. Surrey County Council used a below-threshold limited competition. Gateway fleet was selected as supplier for the single requirement. The award is active and the contract is active. The contract was signed on 7 August 2026, with a contract period from 1 September 2026 to 31 July 2028. Its value is £44,935.71 including tax. The service is treated as a light-touch regime procurement. The published outcome identifies transport services as the procurement category and relates the award to the complete single lot. The contract title is Client Transport Services 2026–2034 – SEND, although the awarded contract period runs from September 2026 to July 2028.

This procurement demonstrates recurring demand from Surrey County Council for dedicated SEND school transport delivered by a relatively small operator: the selected supplier is recorded as an SME. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this kind would need to provide a suitable saloon vehicle with sufficient passenger capacity, reliably cover the Horley-to-Epsom journey, and understand the needs of a young person travelling to specialist education. The work suits operators able to deliver consistent, individual or near-individual school transport rather than conventional bus services. Relevant strengths include dependable scheduled driving, safeguarding-aware practice, careful route planning and the operational capacity to maintain service throughout a school term and across successive academic periods.
