SEBMAT has a growth strategy that over the next 5 years the Trust aims to incorporate more schools so that it is a 10 school organisation. Slough and East Berkshire Church of England Multi-Academy Trust (SEBMAT) has been established to form a group of schools which can support each other to ensure the best possible outcomes for the young people in Slough and the nearby areas. This group of schools includes primary and secondary schools and has a Christian ethos. This does not prevent non-Church of England schools joining the Trust as we enshrine a wide values base. SEBMAT will support schools to excel through coaching, sharing good practice and helping to secure good value for money. Slough and Eton Church of England Business and Enterprise College, Colnbrook Church of England Primary and Eton Pony Church of England First School were the first three schools in SEBMAT. Lynch Hill Enterprise Academy and Lynch Hill School Primary Academy joined the Trust on the 1 January 2019. Woodlands Park joined in November 2022 and The Grove will join in April 2023. The ICT Support at the Trust is currently provided internally. The team who deliver a mix of both onsite and remote support. The reason for this procurement is that the Trust wishes to consolidate its ICT provision, into a single outsourced service that will deliver infrastructure management, ICT Projects (initially to 'joined up' the ICT across the Trust) and supply of equipment. In school, 'adds, moves and changes' will continue to be carried out by SEBMAT staff. ### Going forward - This procurement This procurement encompasses the items noted below. At the sole discretion of the Trust any future schools that the Trust may incorporate into the Trust will also be added to the ICT contract. Any additional schools will co-terminate to the same end date as the initial contract. The new service provider will also deliver a range of technology and change management projects to go ahead as soon as possible.
