## Summary

St Clare Catholic Multi Academy Trust is buying supply teacher provision and recruitment services for education and support staff for its schools. The requirement covers supplying temporary teachers and recruiting education personnel to support the Trust’s staffing needs. The buyer is St Clare Catholic Multi Academy Trust, based in Sheffield. Delivery covers schools within the Trust and activity across England, including the North East, North West, Yorkshire and the Humber, East Midlands, West Midlands, East of England, London, South East and South West. This is an education staffing and recruitment services requirement, classified under CPV 79600000. It is relevant to agencies and education workforce providers able to source, vet and supply teachers and other school support staff across a broad geographic area.

The procurement has been completed and awarded. QA Teaching Ltd was selected as the supplier for the single lot. The award was made on 26 August 2026, and the contract runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2027. Its value is £100,000 excluding VAT and £120,000 including VAT. The Trust used a direct award below the applicable threshold and without competition, under the GCA RM6376 Supply Teachers and Education Recruitment Framework. The award is active and the contract is active. The arrangement therefore records an established route for obtaining education recruitment and supply staffing services, rather than an open competitive tender. No separate lot values or additional awards are reported.

This award demonstrates a recurring need for a multi-academy trust to obtain supply teachers and education or support staff through a recruitment framework. A credible competitor for similar work would need an established education recruitment operation, access to a dependable pool of qualified teachers and support personnel, and the processes to match staff to school requirements quickly. Robust candidate vetting, safeguarding checks, compliance management and reliable placement administration would be important for work in schools. The selected supplier is an SME, showing that the requirement can be delivered by a specialist provider rather than only a large national business. Suppliers able to operate across England and work through the relevant education recruitment framework would be well placed when this type of requirement returns.
