The service will include an initial ‘Screening and Assessment’ process, delivered via tools that accurately identify prisoners’ educational attainment and ability levels, as well as potential additional needs to support successful engagement with prison education. We aim to embed the procured Screening and Assessment tools as part of a modern and robust digital infrastructure that supports data analysis, decision making, tailored support plans and access to appropriate education pathways, through integration with other 3rd party systems as required. We welcome bids from parties who can provide assessment tools for all or part of the required Screening and Assessment subject areas. We will consider the procurement of assessment tools which meet single or multiple specified subject areas if this is deemed likely to represent the best option for both quality and value. ## Lots (1) ### Lot 1: Untitled lot - **Lot id:** `1` - **Status:** planned - **CPV codes:** 48000000, 48190000, 72222300, 75231230, 80420000 - **Delivery regions:** UK - **Description:** As part of the roll-out of Prison Education Service (PES), we are exploring capabilities within the market to better understanding the availability and suitability of Screening and Assessment (S&A) tools.
