The workshops aim to develop numeracy skills among adults with barriers to numeracy, inspired by Silverburn Flax Mill. The procurement process is currently at the tender stage, with submissions due by December 1st, 2023. The contract value is 6000 GBP, and the procurement method is an open procedure. This tender presents an opportunity for businesses involved in education, training, and numeracy support services to compete. Businesses with experience in delivering accredited or non-accredited training, education, and knowledge of traditional building techniques may find this opportunity suitable. The workshops will support individuals in building confidence in numeracy, ultimately aiding in securing employment and removing barriers to further education and development. ## Notice To support development of numeracy and wider skills to deliver a series of 6-day Adult STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art and mathematics) workshops to adults with numeracy barriers inspired by Silverburn Flax Mill. ### Lot Information Lot 1 FEAT support adults with mental health conditions to secure employment through a range of programmes and we know that many of our clients are not confident in numeracy. To support development of numeracy and wider skills, we have secured from the UK Government's Multiply Programme to deliver a series of 6-day Adult STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art and mathematics) workshops inspired by Silverburn Flax Mill. The overall objective is to help develop numeracy skills, with the aim of an onward referral to a more focused numeracy intervention provided by others in the Fife Multiply Pathway. The pathway includes colleges, third and statutory sector services - these other organisations being more skilled, experienced in numeracy support, and able to offer qualifications. Our minimum requirement from this programme is that participants have improved confidence in numeracy. This activity will also support our individuals to begin to remove/reduce one of their remaining challenges to securing employment, and encouraging them to develop their numeracy levels further. These are not individuals who would otherwise seek this support independently. The workshops are based on similar activity we have delivered to primary and secondary school groups in Silverburn Park during 2022 and 2023, funded through the National Lottery Heritage Fund as one element of our activities programme that coincides with the large-scale capital restoration project of the B-listed flax mill. The flax mill restoration is an 8m+ GBP construction contract to rejuvenate the building and create a visitor centre and community hub. The activities programme is designed to engage the local population with the heritage and history of the mill and the Park, however these workshops were originally considered only for school pupils to add learning to their curriculum, however the numeracy skills developed are transferable to an adult population who lack skills or confidence in this area ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Public Contracts Scotland | | Latest notice | https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=OCT491172 | | Notice type | PCS Notice - Website Contract Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 25 Oct 2023 | | Submission deadline | 1 Dec 2023 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £6,000 | | Lots value | £6,000 | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Active | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | FIFE EMPLOYMENT ACCESS TRUST | | Locality | LEVEN | | Post town | Kirkcaldy | | Postcode | KY8 5PU | | Country | Scotland | | ITL 1 | TLM Scotland | | ITL 2 | TLM0 Eastern Scotland | | ITL 3 | TLM01 Clackmannanshire and Fife | | Local authority | Fife | | Electoral ward | Leven, Kennoway and Largo | | Westminster constituency | North East Fife | | Delivery location | TLM72 Clackmannanshire and Fife | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 80 - Education and training services ### Codes - 80000000 - Education and training services ## Release History - 25 Oct 2023 at 00:00 - Tender - PCS Notice - Website Contract Notice - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=OCT491172 ## Documents - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=OCT491172&idx=1 25th October 2023 - Tender Invitation - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/NoticeDownload/DownloadDocument.aspx?id=OCT491172&idx=2 25th October 2023 - Appendix 1 Lesson Plans - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=OCT491172 STEAM Workshop Facilitation for Adults - To support development of numeracy and wider skills to deliver a series of 6-day Adult STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art and mathematics) workshops to adults with numeracy barriers inspired by Silverburn Flax Mill. ## Notice URLs - http:// - http://www.fifeemploymentaccesstrust.com - https://api.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/v1/Notice?id=ocds-r6ebe6-0000748430 - https://fifeemploymentaccesstrust.com/downloads - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/Search/Search_Switch.aspx?ID=748430 ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
