The brief

Central Bedfordshire Council and Bedford Borough Council are undertaking a Preliminary Market Engagement (PME) exercise to inform the re-commissioning of an Alternative Education Provision Framework from September 2027.

The proposed framework will support children and young people requiring tailored educational interventions and is expected to include online and face-to-face tuition, vocational learning, alternative curriculum provision, mentoring/outreach support, and enrichment activities.

The Councils are seeking feedback from providers to help shape the future framework structure, requirements, and delivery mode
