There are 1170 Multi Academy Trusts in England that manage at least two or more schools. Data has been sourced from:\n\tUK number of schools 2023 | Statista\n\tSchools, pupils and their characteristics, Academic year 2022/23 - Explore education statistics - GOV.UK (explore-education-statistics.service.gov.uk)\n\thttps://edexec.co.uk/how-to-get-your-mat-connected-with-technology/ \n\tBudget: The UK Education spending in the year 2022 - 2023 stands at a £116 billion, which is 4.4 % of the national income. The core school budget for the year 2023 - 2024 has risen by 10% to £57.6 billion compared with £52.6 billion in 2019-2020. The budget is expected to increase by another 2% for the year 2024 - 2025, reaching £58.6 billion. Data has been sourced from: Annual report on education spending in England: 2023 (ifs.org.uk)\n\tSpend: The UK Education school gross current procurement expenditure on services by function the estimated outturn 2023 is £33.5B. Gross current procurement expenditure estimated outturn for 2023 on capital projects is £7.8B. (Public Expenditure Statistical Analyses 2023 - tables 5.5-5.6, pages 82-83). \n\tChallenges: The Education Sector faces the following challenges when dealing with procurement projects:\n\tLimited capacity and capability within individual schools, leading to poor levels of Value for Money being obtained.\n\tA highly fragmented and inefficient supply base, with a high cost of management and also a high cost to service for suppliers.\n\tHigh levels pf non-contracted spend for procurements below and above the threshold values under the Public Contract Regulations 2015 and subsequent Procurement Act 2023, leading to non-compliance.\n\tEvidence of directly awarding contracts to suppliers, removing opportunity for competition and subsequent savings.\n\tLimited examples of Sustainability and Social Value initiatives included as part of any commercial contracts.\n\tOpportunities: The Education Sector has a broad range of opportunities for suppliers who strategically are focused on supporting schools and educational institutions. The purpose of this Framework is to support the Supplier in unlocking these benefits: \n\tHigh levels of non-contracted expenditure which need to be effectively and compliantly managed. \n\tLimited strategic focus across the Education Sector in developing and providing regional and national solutions due to the fragmented nature of schools.\n\tLarge customer base that is open to innovation and welcomes service lead supplier solutions.\n\tDue to the lack of maturity and fragmented customer base there are opportunities to aggregate solutions and scale these rapidly across the Education Sector.\nProcurement Legislation and Policy: The Education Sector needs to remain in compliance with a wide variety of legislation, policies, and sustainability requirements set out by the Public Contract Regulations 2015 Procurement Act 2023, the National Procurement Policy Statement and the Department of Education (DfE). Some key provisions include:\nPublic Contract Regulations 2015 Procurement Act 2023\n\tConducting procurements through compliant route to markets.\n\tAdherence to procurement procedures and thresholds to ensure fairness transparency and non-discriminationvaluing for money, our approach maximises public benefit, ensures appropriate sharing of information and we act with integrity.\n\tEnsure procurements are treat suppliers equally an fairly.\n\tPublishing of advertisements and all relevant notices for procurements.\nSustainability Requirements by the DfE\n\tImplementation of a climate action plan by 2025 (DfE Action Area 1)\n\tHaving sustainability leads in schools by 2025. (DfE Action Area 2)\n\tSchools to report emissions by 2024. (DfE Action Area 4)\n\tEradication of single use plastics by 2025.
