Description
The Department for Education (DfE) is responsible for supporting improvement in local authorities, through government intervention in response to failure or weakness in the provision of children's social care services. DfE wishes to appoint Commissioners to provide operational and strategic advice, support and challenge in Barnet, Kirklees, Reading and Worcestershire. Commissioners will provide a clear and sustained focus on the areas for improvement and ensure independent oversight of progress in line with agreed improvement plans. In doing so Commissioners are expected to supervise the programme of change that the authority has embarked on, to drive forward the improvements and implement close monitoring arrangements, and build on the work that has already taken place. The successful bidders will bring their extensive and proven skills in children's social care transformation to deliver the programme of change to services for the most vulnerable children in these authorities. They will demonstrate an understanding of the improvement that has already taken place in the authority and what needs to happen next. Note: Bidders interested in this requirement should be aware that they must allow at least 6 full working days before the competition closing date of 9am on 31 July 2017. This is to complete your registration on the Department for Educations, Dynamic Purchasing System. Incomplete registrations will not be accepted. Bidders who are already fully registered on the Department for Educations Dynamic Purchasing system do not have to re-register. Bids already submitted can be withdrawn from the competition, or updated as long as this happened before the deadline.
Additional information: The contract start date will be 1/10/17 except Barnet which will start by end of August 2017 and the length of the contract is 12 months.
