What is being bought
Motcombe School is part of a six?school collaboration with Seaford Primary School, Willingdon Primary School, Cradle Hill Community Primary School, Meridian Community Primary School, and Denton Community Primary School, joining together to procure a high?quality catering service for their communities.
Provider Capability
All interested catering companies must, in the first instance, demonstrate the capacity, capability, and operational resilience to cater for all six schools within the collaboration.
While the schools are undertaking a shared procurement process and timetable, each school will retain full autonomy and reserves the right to appoint the catering partner that best aligns with its individual needs, culture, and priorities. As a result, the outcome may be:
• A single provider appointed across all six schools, or
• Multiple providers, where individual schools select a bespoke catering partner.
Shared Aspirations
Across the collaboration, the schools share a unified ambition to secure a catering partner who will deliver:
• Increased meal uptake through quality, appeal, and value
• Fresh, nutritious, and seasonal food prepared with care
• A trusted, transparent, and collaborative partnership
• Strong pupil advocacy, ensuring children’s voices shape the dining experience
