Description

Following on from a market engagement webinar held on 15th October 2024 and subsequent feedback received from that event, the Department for Education is seeking further feedback from the market so it can understand market interest and capacity to deliver CPD to the 16-19 Level 2 and below English and maths Workforce in Further Education settings, on a national or regional basis, before defining its next steps for any competitive process. This is not a call for competition and does not commit us to launching a competition or running a competition in specific ways, and any future opportunities are subject to funding availability.

The quality of the English and Maths workforce across the FE sector is paramount, and the Department continues to work with the sector to ensure that providers can recruit, retain, and develop the teaching and governance staff they need to deliver the best possible education to students.

The purpose of engaging the market at this time is to:

- Understand market interest and capacity in delivering 16-19 Level 2 and below English and/or Maths CPD to the workforce (including via innovative provision to achieve the best outcomes for learners who are studying under the condition of funding);
- Understand the market interest and capacity in delivering workforce support in the context of English and/or Maths in the wider organisation, including to English, maths & college leadership;
- Receive feedback from the market on the capacity to ensure national coverage.

DfE is holding an early supplier engagement webinar via Microsoft Teams at 14:00 on 23rd January 2025 which will run for approximately 45 minutes. If your organisation is interested in attending the webinar, please express an interest via SSQ_541 in Project_8440 by 14:00 20th January 2025.
