The aim is that there will be a range of provisions that can meet the diverse range of needs and circumstances of children and young people. The Service Model will be established as a rolling flexible framework under the Light Touch Regime as set out in the Public Contract Regulations 2015.

This Framework will be accessible by both the City of Wolverhampton Council and state education providers in Wolverhampton (listed here). The Service Model consists of four lots: • Lot 1: Primary phase provision for permanently excluded pupils • Lot 2: Primary phase inclusion and engagement • Lot 3: Secondary phase provision for permanently excluded students • Lot 4: Secondary phase inclusion and engagement Providers can bid to deliver provisions across a single lot or multiple lots. Further information, including evaluation criteria can be found within Appendix 2: Instruction to Tender.
