The business manager has requested that in this tender exercise the bidders focus on: A transformational working partnership, delivered via a TUPE compliant bid, with additional recommendations on service equipment, serving points, staffing levels and a bespoke food concept to drive sales and uptake.

The school reserves the right to award its own contract, with the provision to revert to an ‘insourced’ solution or a ‘no award’ decision if the proposals fail to convince. The estimated contract turnover for three years including VAT stands at approximately £750,000.
