When this comes round again

39% of Oxfordshire County Council’s awards go to a supplier it has used before.

Which is the argument for getting on the list rather than winning this one. The incumbent is rarely the last winner — it is the roster. See the retention odds by category →

The brief

The aim of service is to provide an early mental health prevention offer for primary school aged children and their families.

This will include a professional development programme for school staff and ongoing support to embed the approach throughout the school curriculum.

The Council anticipates that the contract will commence on 4 January 2027, for a period of 3 years.

The Council will have an option to extend the contract period by a further 12 months.
