Leeds City Council is initiating a procurement process for the provision of Independent Schools and Colleges for Children and Young People with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities. This process, currently at the planning stage, seeks to supply a comprehensive range of educational services, including residential care. The tender is categorised under special education services and social work-related services, intending to cater to regions across the United Kingdom, including UKC, UKD, UKE, UKF, UKG, UKH, UKI, UKJ, and UKK.

Key dates in this process include the future notice on 1st February 2027, with the contract period slated to commence on 1st July 2027 and end on 30th June 2032. This tender presents considerable opportunities for growth to businesses specialising in education and social services, particularly those that can offer specialised education and residential care settings.
