What is being bought
Brighter Futures for Children’s (BFfC) drive is to improve the quality of services and to ensure that pupils living in Reading have access to the services they need.To help fulfil this commitment BFfC requires alternative provision (AP) services that meet the required standard and statutory regulations as detailed in this Specification.BFfC addresses the needs of vulnerable pupils across the continuum of provision from mainstream school through to AP or special school placements according to assessed needs. Most secondary schools, academies and special schools in Reading purchase part-time Alternative Provision from a wide range of Providers. In order to support schools with this commissioning activity and ensure a consistent approach to commissioning, BFfC on behalf of the Reading Schools, has carried out a Provider approval process in order to publish a Directory of Approved Providers.
