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.

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.
