Tender description
The Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) safeguarding consultation1 which took place 22 April 2024 to 17 June 2024 highlighted that time, resource and cost pressures can lead to settings only being able to access poor-quality safeguarding training which insufficiently tests knowledge retention. Many responses called for a free, high-quality safeguarding training offer provided by the Department.

About the buyer
The Department for Education is a ministerial department responsible for children's services and education policy in England, procuring both for itself and its executive agencies. Requirements are advertised on the Find a Tender service, published through the department's Jaggaer etendering system. Suppliers awarded a contract must register on the Central Digital Platform. Framework purchases follow the matching Crown Commercial Service terms. Many contracts are let on standard government terms, such as Cabinet Office short-form or model services agreements. Schools and academy trusts buy separately, using framework options the department reviews and approves in advance.
Procurement spend from central entities makes up 66% of overall UK public spend.
Over the past 5 years, most of the Department for Education's contract awards have been in business services, construction work and education and training.
