Enhancing Sexual Violence Education in Cheshire – High Schools – Safer Streets 4 (Primary)

Description

The Police and Crime Commissioner for Cheshire is hoping to attract a nationally recognised provider working to prevent Violence Against Women and Girls to deliver a behavioural change programme across 72 high schools in Cheshire East, Cheshire West and Chester and Halton as part of the Safer Streets 4 scheme. (A previous contract delivered under the Safer Streets 3 scheme covered 20 high schools in Warrington and the University of Chester). This process is to identify a provider to work with the Police and Crime Commissioner for Cheshire to deliver innovative solutions in support of the Safer Streets 4 programme in Cheshire. The successful; supplier will work with the Local Authorities of Cheshire West and Chester, Cheshire East and Halton. It is anticipated the successful provider will be recognised leader in this field commensurate with the ambition of this programme which is to set the standard for national good practice in the delivery of age-appropriate sexual abuse educational inputs to children to promote future safety whilst ensuring a healthy culture is developed (behavioural change). It is anticipated the provider will have a proven track record of delivery in this business area. The timescales for the delivery of this programme are challenging as such it is anticipated that the successful provider and indeed applicants will already have aspects of this programme ready for delivery with reasonable adjustments or have the expertise available to quickly use that knowledge to develop the relevant aspects. This needs to be ready within 4 weeks of award (Oct 2022) implementation and for completion by Sept 2023. The contract will have the facility to be extended up to 31st March 2026 to cover additional educational arenas, subject to funding availability. Full details can be found within the Online ITT – which is constructed as an online questionnaire with supporting files in the document folder.
