## About this tender

The purpose of this competition for Lot 2 "Family Learning - supporting parents with children's schoolwork" is to invite bids to create and deliver training provision for parents wanting to increase their numeracy skills in order to help their children with schoolwork, and also help with their own progression. Working in schools, nurseries and community settings, we would like to enhance and scale up the family learning offer in Essex, whilst providing opportunities for parents to learn some valuable skills for life too.

Eligible target learners are parents and carers 19+ who have not previously attained a GCSE Grade 4/C or higher maths qualification and would like to enhance their knowledge. Learners will also have the opportunity to specifically learn how to support their child's/children's learning in the broader subject area of Maths.

It is the intention that the provision will be delivered in locations that are convenient and easily accessible for learners, such as schools, nurseries and community settings. Bidders will ensure that this is a safe and appropriate learning environment.

Learning sessions will enable skills sharing through creative intergenerational interactions and reflective learning and encourage increased understanding between individuals of different age groups.

The learning experience will be further beneficial to parents and carers who will be able to acquire valuable life skills and improve their ability to deal with everyday life challenges such as household budgeting, debt management, shopping and price comparison, food preparation, etc.

Expected duration of training courses is between 6 to 10 guided learning hours.

Substantive learning (formal or informal) is learning being delivered in two or more hours. Only substantive learning will be accepted for this tender and will be recorded in the Individualised Learner Record (ILR).

Department for Education (DfE) has confirmed that Multiply training / learning will not be subject to Ofsted inspections in Year 2 (2023-2024).

Outreach activities (a.k.a. non-substantive learning) should not be recorded in the ILR. Instead, contact details (name, address, email, phone number & date of birth) should be collected from those engaged to enable follow up and marketing at a later date.
