Talking Tenders with City of Edinburgh Council - Accredited Pathways and Certified Counselling and Therapies

The City of Edinburgh Council is seeking to create a Framework of providers in line with the National Improvement Framework for Education. The vision for education in Edinburgh is to ensure excellence by raising attainment and improving outcomes through Accredited Pathways and Certified Counsellors and Therapists: ensuring that every child and young person achieves the highest standards in literacy and numeracy, as well as the knowledge and skills necessary to shape their future as successful learners, confident individuals, responsible citizens, and effective contributors.

The City of Edinburgh Council in partnership with the Supplier Development Programme will be hosting this event to raise awareness of the contract, as well as provide vital information about the upcoming tender process

Current Engagement
The City of Edinburgh Council purchases services from independent providers to achieve the above vision. An average of 124 different schools use these provisions every year. Edinburgh is committed to ensuring the highest quality service and best value from services which the Council purchase
