Flexible Framework for Vocational and Skill Based Interventions

Description

North Lanarkshire Council (the “Council”) propose to establish a Flexible Framework Agreement with multiple external learning Contractors to deliver vocational and skill-based interventions across a variety of subject areas. Provision will be accessible to all North Lanarkshire schools however is primarily sought for senior phase pupils (S4-S6).
The aim of this Framework is to enhance the employability skills and post school pathways that will better equip our young people for the world of work. A significant focus of this framework will be to ensure adequate specialist provision is available for our schools and programmes supporting pupils from priority and target groups.
The proposed Framework duration is 4 years. There will be annual entry points to allow new applicants to join the Framework for academic years 2026-27, 2027-28, and 2028-29. This framework will not include vocational and skills-based interventions delivered by further education colleges/universities or any provision delivered under school college partnership arrangements.
