This will bring thecatering budget into line with the Academy financial year. Contract commencement will be 11.4.2016. The catering service provision at Wolverhampton Girls' High School has not been market tested in recent years and to ensure Best Value principles are applied the Head Teacher and School Governors have made a decision to tender the catering service. Current roll numbers are 783 including 229 sixth form students. Please note that this is an all-girls high school and this should be considered when reviewing and considering the food offer. In addition to this there are 100 teaching and support staff. Current turnover figures are circa 140 000 GBP — 150 000 GBP per annum and it should be noted that theSchool has a very stringent gated policy for non- 6th formers. Current uptake levels are above 50% and the School firmly believes that with improved choice and quality there is a real opportunity to increase this level of uptake. For the avoidance of doubt TUPE Regulations will apply to this contract. The successful contractor will be expected to deliver a concise and detailed method of management reporting at the end of each month, thus updating the senior management team within the School on contract performance. It is imperative that an open book policy is offered to ensure the School has total clarity onfinancial performance. We are seeking both innovation and the application of current food trends within the tender submissions and would expect as a result of this to be able to identify ‘best value’ and work in partnership with the chosen contractor going forward. The contract will be cost neutral during the contract term and if any improvements to financial surplus's are generated then the contractor shall share these on an agreed percentage return. Free School Meals and any adhoc catering requirements will be invoiced on a monthly basis. A reconciliation will take place monthly to reconcile the actual operating financial result to allow the School to see how the catering operation is performing financially.
