Description

Following a successful bid to the Single Homeless Accommodation Programme (SHAP) fund 
Dorset Council was awarded funding to deliver a 6 bed 'complex women's unit, with support' -
breakdown below:

Revenue - Yr1 - £8,807.50, Yr2 - £211,375, Yr3 - £211,375, Yr4 - £202,567.50.

The Capital grant awarded has allowed the Council to purchase a suitable 6-bedroom unit 
which will provide accommodation for female rough sleepers. The acquisition of the 
accommodation is outside of the procurement process.

The revenue funding is awarded by the Department of Levelling Up, Housing and Communities 
(DLUHC) and the aim of the funding is to support rough sleepers into settled accommodation 
and support the government's aim to eliminate rough sleeping by the end of the current 
Parliament.

Revenue funding allocated to this project is made up of £584,125 from the SHAP revenue 
support grant and £50,000 from the Homelessness Prevention Grant (HPG). This provides the 
Council with a total of £634,125 to deliver support for a 3-year period. There is a need to 
procure a bespoke support service for women because the Council does not have a service of 
this type in Dorset.

Funding is high profile and is subject to monthly meetings with advisors from DLUHC. Progress 
will also be monitored on a quarterly basis through Key Performance Indicators set by DLUHC.

This was a Further Competition via Lot 19 of the Dorset Care, Support, Housing and 
Community Safety Framework. Lot 19 of the Framework is 'Living Well (C) - Housing related 
support services.'

Monitoring of School Attendance

Monitoring of School Attendance of Children and Young People in Care and Children and Young People with an Education, Health & Care Plan (OOC). Wolverhampton City Council (the Council) has a statutory duty to monitor the school attendance of children and young people in care placed in out-of-city independent placements, and for children and young people with Education, Health and Care Plans (EHCPs) attending out-of-city education settings. This duty is primarily governed by the Education Act 1996 and relevant Department for Education (DfE) statutory guidance. To fulfil this responsibility, the Council requires a service provider capable of delivering a robust service for collecting and monitoring attendance data for these two cohorts. The overarching aim is to improve school attendance among Wolverhampton pupils placed outside the city by delivering an effective, responsive, and informative service. This will enable the Council to identify and address poor attendance early, ensuring timely intervention in cases of unauthorised absence. The provider will be expected to achieve the outcomes outlined in the performance indicators and the successful provider is expected to deliver as follows: * Implement a robust and efficient attendance monitoring service that ensures accurate and timely collection of attendance data for all education provisions. * The service should support multiple methods of data acquisition to maximise coverage and reliability. This may include: • Automated extraction of attendance data from education management systems, where integration with the school or setting's system is both feasible and secure, • Alternative communication methods, such as direct phone call with provisions or settings, to ensure attendance data is captured even where MIS integration is not possible.
