## About this tender

The University of Southampton is seeking to procure an online platform that is able to facilitate students to write their personal statement for their application to university as well as providing guidance, structure and support. As part of this package the successful company will also need to provide a fully trained member of staff who has qualified teacher status to deliver workshops within colleges/ sixth forms to support students in using the platform. These workshops need to cover the University and College Admissions System (UCAS) admissions process as well as aspects such as university admissions tests and interview skills.

We also require the successful company to be able to deliver both online and face to face bespoke training to members of staff within the college/ sixth form across ten colleges within our region in the first instance. If the project continues into its second phase (2018-2020) we would require the company to train an additional 10 colleges/ sixth forms.
