## Summary

The Isle of Wight Council commissioned consultancy to support its special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) reform plan. This is a professional consultancy service, rather than a supply of goods or construction work. The work is for the Council and is delivered on the Isle of Wight. The stated purpose is to help develop or deliver the Council’s SEND reform plan; no further workstreams are described. The selected consultancy is Peartree Education, based in Southampton. The requirement is therefore relevant to consultancies with expertise in public-sector SEND services and reform planning, particularly those able to work with a local authority and support delivery for an island community.

The procurement is complete and Peartree Education has been selected and awarded the contract. The Council used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. The contract was signed on 1 July 2026 and runs from 27 July 2026 to 27 August 2027. Its value is £85,000 excluding VAT and £102,000 including VAT. There is one lot, covering the consultancy requirement as a whole. The published procurement information does not set out an evaluation basis or eligibility requirements; the direct award means suppliers did not compete through this process. The award is active and the contract is active.

For consultancies that did not win, this award demonstrates Isle of Wight Council demand for specialist support with SEND reform planning. A credible future competitor would need to show practical knowledge of special educational needs and disabilities services, local-authority responsibilities and the challenges of turning reform plans into workable action. Evidence of relevant consultancy assignments, the ability to advise public-sector decision-makers and capacity to work closely with Council teams would help establish fit. The selected supplier is an SME, showing that this requirement was delivered by a smaller consultancy rather than an obviously large-scale provider. The route used was a below-threshold direct award without competition, so suppliers should be alert to the possibility that a comparable future requirement may be procured differently; this award does not establish that it will be competed.
