Tender description

This is a PIN to explore the market only. The Council requires childcare providers to deliver childcare in each of the four localities in Edinburgh, targeted at the areas of highest deprivation (SIMD1 and/or 2) to ensure that there is childcare provision available for low-income parents moving into or sustaining employment. The service(s) would deliver early learning and childcare (ELC) and school age childcare for children aged 0 - 12 years, ensuring that it does not duplicate the support provided by national interventions such as the 1140hrs of funded childcare. The information provided within the document uploaded should be read. This PIN is for market engagement purposes only and is to determine if there are interested providers who can provide services within the designated areas of deprivation in Edinburgh.
