## About this tender

The successful Supplier will be required to provide Catering services for West Park School

“Outstanding schools have a burning desire to get the best possible deal for children in every respect. They are places where the culture of achievement runs deep. Through sheer hard work and determination West Park has become the school it has always wanted to be. Standards at West Park represent achievement of the highest order and place the school among the very best in the country. Without a first-rate teaching and associate staff, supportive parents, hard-working pupils and enlightened governance this would not be possible.”

•To ensure that the whole school community understands the importance of a nutritionally balanced diet in promoting health and wellbeing.

•To offer pupils and staff a range of value for money options, suitable for all customer’s budgets to maximise uptake of the catering service.

•To stimulate pupil interest in the service through promotions, variety, new foods and links between to the curriculum.

The School has had the same catering contractor for a significant number of years, and this is the first time the contract has been placed at competitive tender for over 5 years.

Annual catering revenue for the year ending 31 July 2025 was £506K. The successful contractor is expected to have a local operational presence, as specialist caterers in the Secondary School sector.
