    "description": "Suffolk County Council would like to hear from organisations offering education caseload management systems (CMSs) and associated services to help gauge the likely level of interest in the current market and to gain an understanding of the systems available.  Suffolk County Council's Children & Young People's services (CYP) currently use 4 core CMSs, alongside a small number of services that record partially outside of a structured management system using shared drives and spreadsheets, to support the delivery of services and statutory education functions across the directorate.

Two thirds of schools in Suffolk are academies. The system also processes around 15,000 early year children. About 500 people use the current system around the County.   The Council's Education & Learning and SEND & Inclusion management information solution is currently provided by Capita One Education. During the life of the contract, it has been updated, had additional modules added and more recently in 2020 moved to a cloud hosted environment.
