In plain English

Wrexham County Borough Council, on behalf of St Mary's Catholic Primary School, is looking for an independent provider to run a wraparound childcare service on the school site. The provider would be given a licence to occupy, which means permission to use part of the school premises for the service rather than a standard service contract.

What the buyer wants

• Be registered with Care Inspectorate Wales (CIW), or be willing to apply for CIW registration • Set up and run flexible, affordable wraparound childcare that supports children's wellbeing, play, learning and development • Work in close partnership with the school and its governing body, respect its Catholic ethos and community, and meet high standards of safeguarding, transparency and governance

Requirements

Named in the buyer's notice:

What could rule a small business out: A provider that is not registered with Care Inspectorate Wales and is not willing to apply for registration would be ruled out, and the notice only invites submissions from the independent childcare providers it names.

Always check the tender documents.
