## About this tender

Alcester Grammar School (AGS) encompasses 1,296 pupils and is located in Warwickshire.

AGS is focussed on 3 core values:

- Nurturing aspiration, achievement and opportunities for all

At Alcester Grammar School we aim to nurture aspiration, achievement, and opportunity for all. We are committed to offering a rich, ambitious curriculum and a broad all-round education, supported by outstanding pastoral care in an inclusive and collaborative learning environment. We expect everyone in our community to be active 'engaged AGS learners' and socially

responsible 'decent human beings'.

- Being a decent human being

Being kind, being polite, being respectful, being responsible and honest. Being community minded, empathetic and inclusive.

- Being engaged as an AGS learner

Aiming high by taking responsibility for learning, being collaborative, resourceful and showing curiosity and taking risks whilst persevering and reflecting.

The ICT Support at the School is currently provided in house and this is predominantly a reactive service to 'keep the lights on'. The School is at a stage where a forward thinking vision, direction of travel and whole School strategy is needed, that is informed by the Schools needs now and in the future.

As such, the School is taking the opportunity to go to market to identify a forward-looking partner to support them in the delivery and development of their ICT provision over the next five years.
