The school is presenting an exciting opportunity to partner with a specialist Catering Supplier that is able to deliver their vision of promoting the health and wellbeing of their circa 1600pupils and 150 staff through the catering provision.

The school operates over two sites, both with their own kitchen and serveries. There is a two week lesson cycle which moves different year groups and classes over both sites. A recent timetable change, In January 2026, has meant that the flow of pupils has completely changed, so the catering teams on both sites are relearning supply/ demand under the new timetable. The rule of thumb is that at Break and at Lunchtime, that students should eat at the site that they are on and then move to the site where their next lesson is. The two sites are around 6 minutes walk apart.

Current catering sales revenue is around £400k per annum, over three services – breakfast, morning break and lunchtime over the two sites. Currently there are 4 till service points (three in main servery and a separate pod) on the Mornington Road site and 2 till points on the Sydney Road campus, all replicating the same service offer where possible. At lunchtime main meals vary daily but will include hot entrees with appropriate accompaniments, vegetarian alternatives, jackets & fillings and a selection of hot and cold sandwiches. Each entrée is bundled with Drink and dessert to make up the meal deal. The sixth form is nominally catered for by the adjacent pod on the Monington site, but this has not been consistently manned by the current caterer.
