White Bridge School ~ Catering Tender

Catering at White Bridge Primary is generally regarded by stakeholders as being consistently at even keel, with a settled workforce and safe systems of work being applied. The service seems to be well appreciated by pupils and parents alike and in the recent past has not generated much feedback or noise. The facilities are relatively new, and the incumbent service provider has been in place for in excess of 10 years. The school has two forms per year group and has a current roll of 413 pupils. The current lunch service starts at 12 noon with the youngest children and works upward through the year groups. The Trust expects the successful Supplier to enable the continued development of catering through the provision of an innovative, healthy food service, with fresh, seasonal and ideally some locally sourced ingredients being prepared on-site. The School and Trust expects the successful Supplier to evidence, through their bid, how they shall support and complement its values and support the principles of Every Child Matters.
