The successful tenderer will be required to provide catering services to Plashet School.
The contract term being tendered is for three years, 5th April 2025 – 31st March 2028. There is an option for a further extension period for up to two additional years to 31st March 2030.
The contract offers an excellent opportunity to review and propose enhancements to the current catering services at the School. This includes morning break and lunchtime services over the academic year of 190 days.
The school is keen to secure a high-quality catering service including fresh locally sourced ingredients prepared on site, with a menu design that is flexible to suit the requirements of the school’s specific students. The school is proud of its ‘family ethos’ and expects both a tightly managed service and a management style delivered by the successful contractor that supports, encourages and develops the catering staff.
The school is not obliged to accept the lowest price submitted for this tender, rather the school is keen to secure ‘best value’ from this contract and to deliver ‘best value’ to its students. Innovative and creative ideas as to how the services can be developed and value added, will be welcomed. The school seeks a contractor that is keen to work in partnership and who will deliver to its highest abilities, at all times.
