two.2.4) Description of the procurement
The ASN play scheme requires the supplier to work with primary school aged children who have a wide range of moderate and complex learning needs – this may also involve medical and personal care.
Due to the complexity of the children’s needs and to ensure child safety and wellbeing at all times, the supplier must have both experience and knowledge of working with children who have moderate and complex learning needs.

The upper limit for numbers of children attending each day would be 45. There would be a requirement to register with the Care Inspectorate for this service – maximum number of children being 45.
The staff / child ratio will be 1:1 in most cases but for those children with a very high level of need, this would be 2 adults to 1 child. For those children with more moderate learning needs, this ratio could be 1:2 (1 adult to 2 children).
The children would be working in groups / zones and not solitary 1 to 1.
There are 90 primary school aged children on the roll at Woodland View School, EDC would like to offer up to 15 days but no less than 10 days of holiday childcare per child. There would also be places available for children attending who attend Enhanced Learning Resources (ELR – Tier 2 provision) within East Dunbartonshire through a Request for Assistance process.
