Previous to the incumbent contractor the catering service provision was managed by Wolverhampton DSO.
Therefore, the successful contractor needs to offer an Admitted Body Status pension arrangement to those staff that were employed by the Council and transferred over to the incumbent contractor on contract award.
Current roll numbers are circa 950 students including 150 Sixth Formers.
In addition to this there are 100 teaching and support staff.
Please note that this is a multi-cultural school and this should be considered when reviewing and considering the food offer.
Current turnover figures are circa 140 000 GBP - 150 000 GBP per annum including Free School meals.
Current uptake levels are above 65 % and the School firmly believes that with improved choice and quality there is a real opportunity to increase this level of uptake.
The successful contractor will be expected to deliver a concise and detailed method of management reporting at the end of each month, thus updating the senior management team within the School on contract performance.
It is imperative that an open book policy is offered to ensure the School has total clarity on financial performance.
We are seeking both innovation and the application of current food trends within the tender submissions and would expect as a result of this to be able to identify ‘best value’ and work in partnership with the chosen contractor going forward.
The contract will be for 3 years with the option of a 2 year extension depending on the level of service delivered during the initial 3 year term.
