ECC is looking for a music education digital resource specialist to provide a comprehensive package of musical programmes and resources which are accessible to thousands of classroom teachers, music tutors and young people. In addition, both online and face-to-face training, delivering up to 2 training sessions a week is essential to maximise uptake and engagement. The target audiences for this training would be set through working closely in partnership between the Music Hub and the successful bidder. The successful bidder will become a Music Hub partner whose offer will strongly compliment the wider work of the Music Hub and help deliver the Core and Extension roles which all Music Hubs are funded to offer. The digital learning packages will need to be administered and promoted by the successful bidder. An ongoing, high-quality face-to-face and online training package for generalist and specialist teachers and tutors is essential. The successful bidder will be required to provide a digital-based learning environment which contains a breadth and depth of resources to support the delivery of music to all key-stages, but with particular detailed content to support EYFS, Key-stage 1 and Key-stage 2 teachers where there are a greater number of non-specialist teachers delivering music curriculum lessons. We also expect there to be resource to support the various SEND settings across the county and support transition of young people between primary and secondary settings. All users (both teachers/tutors and pupils) will need individual logins which can easily be reset and to which content can be saved. The managers of Essex Music Education Hub also require administrative access. There will be a need and expectation for the successful bidder to provide an on-going CPD programme for schools to benefit from, to enable generalist teachers to fully understand how to best use the resources that are on offer. This digital learning requirement will require two separate elements of work to be provided for: o A resource for the whole delivery of the Music Curriculum and support materials for instrumental teachers o A resource for students to use to explore multi-track and sequencing techniques and creativity using music technology. ## Lots (1) ### Lot 1: Untitled lot - **Lot id:** `1` - **Status:** complete - **CPV codes:** 80420000 - **Delivery regions:** UKH - **Estimated Value:** £900,000 - **Description:** The successful bidder will be required to provide a digital-based learning environment which contains a breadth and depth of resources to support the delivery of music to all key-stages, but with particular detailed content to support EYFS, Key-stage... - **Renewal published:** yes ## Awards & Winning Suppliers (1) - **Award:** 018790-2021-1 (active) - Supplier(s): **Charanga Ltd** - Supplier identifiers: `GB-FTS-129024` - Value: £594,250 † (exc.
