Description

The purpose of this competition for Lot 2 “Family Learning - supporting parents with children’s schoolwork” is to invite bids to create and deliver training provision for parents wanting to increase their numeracy skills in order to help their children with schoolwork, and also help with their own progression. Provision should enhance and scale up the family learning offer in Essex, whilst providing opportunities for parents to learn some valuable skills for life too. Proposed curriculums for this provision should directly link to the current Mathematics curriculum as part of the National Curriculum for pupils in Key Stage 1 and/or Key Stage 2. Eligible target learners are parents and carers 19+ who have not previously attained a GCSE Grade 4/C or higher maths qualification and would like to enhance their knowledge. Learners will also have the opportunity to specifically learn how to support their child’s/children’s learning in the broader subject area of Maths. It is the intention that the provision will be delivered in locations that are convenient and easily accessible for learners, such as schools, nurseries and community settings. Bidders will ensure that this is a safe and appropriate learning environment. Learning sessions will enable skills sharing through creative intergenerational interactions and reflective learning and encourage increased understanding between individuals of different age groups.

Total Quantity or Scope

Aligned to family learning, the offer should also help to build confidence and provide appropriate careers education, information, advice and guidance to enable parents and carers to kickstart their own adult learning. Expected duration of training courses is between 6 to 10 guided learning hours. Substantive learning (formal or informal) is defined as learning being delivered in two or more hours. All substantive learning will be recorded in the Individualised Learner Record (ILR) monthly. Suppliers will need to submit the ILR directly to the Department for Education via IDAMS. Where a supplier is unable to use IDAMS, it should submit via the ILR input tool. Suppliers will need to provide ECC with a copy of the ILR using an ECC template. Department for Education (DfE) has confirmed that Multiply training / learning will not be subject to Ofsted inspections in Year 2 (2023-2024). The maximum cost per learner for this requirement (Lot 2) is £35 per guided learning hour, if the proposal is found to exceed the maximum cost per learner, ECC reserves the right to reject the proposal. Bidders may bid above a minimum value of £10,000 and up to a maximum of £100,000 in this mini competition, if the bid does not fall within this range, ECC reserves the right to reject this proposal. The minimum number of learners for this mini competition is 29. All learners must be unique learners and therefore proposed provision should not include the ability for learners to undertake multiple courses within the same Lot. This would not prevent learners undertaking courses funded by different Lots.
