Published requirement description

"Star Light Alternative Educational Provision provides a therapeutic education setting in Walsall town centre for children in Years 7 to 11. The provision is designed for children who would benefit from a therapeutic approach to education within a smaller and more supportive setting.

There is an urgent requirement to put this contract in place due to technical reasons."
