The selected organisations will be expected to work with the Council to ensure the provision of good quality and affordable childcare in its Village ward. John Perry Children’s Centre Nursery Address: Auriel Avenue, Dagenham, RM10 8BS – currently an approximately 52 place nursery. However, before the new contract commences, the provision may be extended to allow for up to an additional 16 places. Contract commencement date is expected to be 1st September 2016. The nursery is expected to provide care for children within an age range of three (3) months to five (5) years. Opening hours for the nurseries will be Monday to Friday 8am to 6pm for fifty one (51) weeks a year. The contract and co-terminous lease for the nursery are expected to be for a period of five (5) years and may be extended for a further period of three (3) years subject to performance and at the sole discretion of the Council. The contract and co-terminous lease is expected to commence on 1st September 2016, but this commencement date is not guaranteed and may be earlier or later. The Nursery is currently run by the Council and will be fully equipped (all equipment to remain the property of the Council) and will have children attending on handover, however, it is expected that no Council staff will be subject to TUPE.
