Description

The contract will be for the provision of supply agency services for all schools belonging to the Trust. The Trust was looking to appoint the three highest scoring Providers who will become part of the Trust's preferred Provider List. This will enable each school to select any Provider from the list in order to book suitable cover for the role(s) required. The Trust will not guarantee any level of supply for each individual Provider on the list and the schools will have the freedom to select whichever Provider they choose to use from this preferred Providers list. It is the Trust's expectation that the Provider shall be responsible for the operation of the supply agency function including: a. Availability of agency workers that have the required levels of competence and experience to cover the booking requests. b. Best Value for money. c. Comprehensive management information and reporting. d. High levels of school satisfaction. e. Consistently high-performance levels which meet or exceed KPI requirements. f. Consolidated invoicing weekly/ monthly as required. g. Expert advice on any legislative requirements related to Agency Workers. The provision of supply agency services is to be delivered at all 20 schools under the Trust.
