Education Tenders and Contracts

See open education tenders and awarded contracts for the UK public sector.

Education procurement is dominated by school-estate work: construction, boiler replacements and fire doors sit alongside catering, cleaning and staffing run through multi-academy trusts. Colleges and universities add software and library licences; councils buy SEND transport and placements too.

Frameworks run by buying organisations such as ESPO cover much of the catering, cleaning and inclusion-services side.

  • What kinds of contracts count as education tenders?

    Education tenders span a lot more than teaching contracts. They cover school building and refurbishment work, boiler and fire-safety upgrades, catering and cleaning, home-to-school and SEND transport, agency staffing, and software, library and publishing licences bought by colleges and universities. Department for Education construction projects and local authority school-estate work make up a large share of what is currently live.

  • Are there frameworks for education procurement?

    Yes. Multi-academy trusts and buying organisations such as ESPO run frameworks covering outsourced catering, cleaning and inclusion services, and local authorities run frameworks for SEND transport and alternative provision. These are worth tracking even outside an open tender.

  • What CPV codes are associated with education tenders?

    Education tenders map most closely to the general education and training services classification, alongside primary school construction work for the building-projects side of the category. Neither code captures the full range of catering, transport and staffing work that also falls under education procurement.

  • How many education tenders are open right now?

    Open counts move fast. Education procurement carries a substantial award history behind it, reflecting the scale of ongoing school-estate, catering and staffing work across the sector.
