In plain English
St Angela's Ursuline School, a Catholic girls' secondary school in Newham, is seeking a catering company to run its breakfast, morning break and lunch services for about 1,304 pupils and 115 staff. The contract runs for three years from August 2027, with an option to extend by up to two more years, and the school wants freshly prepared, locally sourced food cooked on site.
What the buyer wants
• Provide breakfast, morning break and lunchtime catering across the academic year, plus hospitality services when requested • Design flexible, nutritionally balanced menus that meet a wide range of dietary needs, increase meal uptake and reduce queues • Manage catering staff in a supportive, transparent way and offer value for money, with suggestions for improving and adding value to the service
Requirements
Named in the buyer's notice:
- Public Liability Insurance
What could rule a small business out: The excerpt does not list specific minimum qualifications or experience, but the scale of the contract (about £2.1 million over three years, with around 1,300 pupils and 115 staff to serve daily) is likely to rule out very small catering businesses.
Always check the tender documents.
