Description

The Standards and Testing Agencys remit includes development and delivery of statutory national curriculum tests for English Reading, English Grammar, Punctuation and Spelling (GPS), Mathematics, Phonics and Reception Baseline Assessment for use in schools. The Agency is responsible for ensuring these tests are of the highest quality, accessible to all, inclusive and free from bias.

The Agency wishes to establish a new framework for procuring the trialling services for 4 years between June 2025 and June 2029.

Trialling is essential to STAs operating model of delivering brand new assessments and for adding to the bank of items for current assessments. Two types of trials are carried out:
1. Item validation trial (IVT)
An item validation trial (IVT) is a relatively small-scale trial providing evidence to support item development, for example, refining the wording of questions and developing coding frames.
2. Technical pre-test
The technical pre-test (TPT) is a larger scale trial and provides statistical evidence relating to items.
The online Early Market Engagement event will be held on 3 December 2024 between 1330hrs and 1430hrs via Microsoft Teams. Further details will be sent to the suppliers who express interest in participating in the event.
All queries in relation to this market engagement event may be submitted at any time via DfEs e-procurement portal Jaggaer Messaging Option and must be received no later than 2 December 2024, 1200hrs.
