North Northamptonshire Council - Expression of Interest - The Virtual School Participation and Engagement Project

Tender description

North Northamptonshire Council, on behalf of Northamptonshire Virtual School for Children in Care, is seeking a partner to provide participation and engagement activities for children in care. The broad intent of the commission is to enable the provision of: • A broad range of enrichment activities during school holidays consisting of 300 to 600 individual places (total across the year) for children aged 7 to 18 across Northamptonshire (this means in a variety of locations across the county, logically based in the major towns). • Using the enrichment activities as a mechanism for engagement and relationship building, capture the voice of children in care on a range of issues relating to their education, in order to support and guide future service delivery, and build a cohort of children in care able to participate in co-production activities. The Council would like to encourage interests from not for profit, community interest organisations, and would welcome a collaborative, co-operative approach between such organisations with the skills to deliver the various elements of the commission, including the overall management of its delivery. If you are interested in attending a meeting to discuss this commission, please express your interest via email to: VirtualSchool@northnorthants.gov.uk by the 30th of June 2023.
