## Summary

Sefton Council procured an undergraduate Level 6 apprenticeship standard for teachers. The requirement is an education and training service supporting the council’s apprenticeship teacher programme, delivered through the YPO Framework 1086. Sefton Council is the buying organisation and is based at Magdalen House in Bootle. The awarded provider is Liverpool Hope University, based at Hope Park in Liverpool. The service relates to teacher development at undergraduate degree level, rather than construction, supplies or general professional consultancy. Delivery is within the United Kingdom and supports the council’s workforce development needs. Businesses operating in higher education, teacher training, apprenticeship provision or education and training services would find the requirement most relevant, particularly those able to provide a recognised Level 6 teacher apprenticeship standard.

This procurement is complete and has been awarded through a direct procedure below the relevant threshold, without competition, using YPO Framework 1086. The award was made to Liverpool Hope University on 2 July 2026. One completed lot was awarded, and the associated contract is active. The contract was signed on 2 July 2026 and runs from 2 July 2026 to 31 March 2029. Its value is £54,000 excluding VAT, or £63,600 including VAT. The award covers education and training services for the undergraduate Level 6 apprenticeship standard for teachers. Liverpool Hope University is the sole named supplier. The procurement information does not set out a competitive evaluation or scoring basis because the contract was awarded directly without competition.

This outcome shows a defined demand from Sefton Council for undergraduate teacher apprenticeship provision at Level 6, delivered through an established public-sector framework. A supplier competing for a comparable future requirement would need credible higher-education and teacher-training capability, with the ability to deliver an apprenticeship standard rather than standalone short courses or generic training. Experience supporting employed apprentices through an undergraduate route would be relevant, as would the academic, pastoral and administrative capacity to manage learners and coordinate with a council employer. Providers should also understand how to work through framework arrangements and public-sector procurement routes. Liverpool Hope University’s selection indicates that a substantial education institution with teacher-training expertise is a credible competitor for this type of council workforce-development requirement.
