SEND Supplementary Teaching Provision for non-looked after children and young people:
Derby City Council is responsible for organising provision to support special educational needs and disabilities (SEND), including, but not limited to, learners with Educational, Health and Care Plans (EHCP).
Whilst most of our SEND provision will take place within schools within the Derby City area (both specialist and mainstream), on occasion it is necessary to commission short to medium term support to work with parents or carers to provide a home learning package. Examples of this may be where a learner is refusing to attend their main education setting because of COVID-related anxiety, or where a placement has broken down and the child or young person is not in education.

Derby City Council will incorporate a minimum 10 calendar days standstill period at the point information on the award of the contract is communicated to tenderers. This period allows unsuccessful tenderers to seek further debriefing from the contracting authority before the contract is entered into.
Applicants have 2 working days from the notification of the award decision to request additional debriefing and that information has to be provided a minimum of 3 working days before the expiry of the standstill period. Such additional information should be required from the contact details provided in section 1.1 of this notice.
If an appeal regarding the award of a contract has not been successfully resolved the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (Si 2015 No 102) provide for aggrieved parties who have been harmed or are at risk of harm by a breach of the rules to take action in the High Court(England, Wales and Northern Ireland). Any such action must be brought promptly (generally within 3 months).
Where a contract has not been entered into the Court may order the setting aside of the award decision or order the authority to amend any document and may award damages. If the contract has been entered into the Court may only award damages. [The purpose of the standstill period referred to above is to allow parties to apply to the Courts to set aside the award decision before the contract is entered into].
