The School was founded in 1963 and serves communities in West Berkshire and Reading unitary authorities. The School occupies a large site and has a range of buildings of different ages. The main school building was completed in 2021 and further phased development is envisaged. The tender project is seeking to appoint a Contractor whose initiative and innovation will be welcomed for the provision of service within the existing facilities for the 1671 students on roll and 176 teaching and support staff, The contract being tendered is for three years in duration from 1 April 2026 to 31 March 2029 and will operate as a Fixed Price Contract, with the successful Contractor offering the School a fixed cost per annum for the provision of cleaning services. There is the potential for a further two year extension of the contract. The School year is based on a calendar of 195 days. Five days are to be used for staff professional development which means that School will be open to receive students for the legal minimum of 190 days. The contract offered covers the scope for the provision of all cleaning services within the School, which currently includes routine cleaning (daily, weekly, monthly) of the school; and periodic cleaning to include a deep clean during the school summer holidays. Additional cleaning will be required in the holidays as some staff do year-round work and various activities take place on the school site during holiday periods such as exam revision sessions. The areas to be cleaned include, but are not limited to washrooms, changing rooms (x4) classrooms (including art and science), circulation areas, dining hall, main hall, sports hall, activity studio drama studio(x2) staff work rooms, medical room food technology rooms (x2) textiles room, technology work rooms (x2) The core term time cleaning shift will be required Monday to Friday 16:00 – 20:00. In addition to cleaning duties it will be a requirement of the Cleaning Supervisor to lock and secure any building still being cleaned after 18:00 on any weekday evening as well as locking the school gate if the cleaning team are the last personnel to leave the site. Suitable keyholder insurance will therefore need to be in place. If there should be a school event or an external letting taking place the School’s site team will be responsible for the locking and securing of any buildings concerned, as well as the main school gate. A day time janitor is also required to work year-round Monday to Friday 8:30-16:00 excluding bank holidays and the period between Christmas and New Year. In School holidays they would be responsible for cleaning of any areas that have been in use. Any surplus time available in holiday periods should be spent on periodic cleaning tasks. The School would also like the Cleaning Contractor to provide a quotation for an annual window cleaning service for the... > [Read full procurement scope and specification on Tenderline](https://tenderline.uk/tenders/little-heath-school-cleaning-tender-ocds-h6vhtk-05620d) ## Lots (1) ### Lot 1: Untitled lot - **Lot id:** `1` - **Status:** complete - **CPV codes:** 90919300 - **Delivery regions:** UKJ - **Delivery countries in notice:** GB - **Estimated Value:** £1,119,075 - **Contract Period:** 31/03/2026 to 31/03/2029 - **Renewal published:** yes ## Awards & Winning Suppliers (1) - **Award:** Little Heath School ~ Cleaning Tender (pending) - Award id: `1` - Supplier(s): **YBC Cleaning Services Limited** - Supplier identifiers: `GB-FTS-182654` - Value: £1,119,075 (exc.
