In plain English

Birmingham Children's Trust, a public body that runs children's services in Birmingham, wants to hire a training provider to help its staff work in a trauma-informed way, meaning they understand how trauma affects children and families and respond accordingly. The contract, estimated at £90,000, covers training for frontline staff and leaders, building internal trainers, and measuring whether the programme has changed practice.

What the buyer wants

• Design and deliver a organisation-wide trauma-informed training and leadership programme, including developing internal educators and champions, advanced training for frontline practitioners, and leadership and management development. • Carry out programme evaluation and an organisational maturity assessment, and report on the impact of the work on practice. • Transfer knowledge to the Trust's own staff and produce a sustainability plan so the approach continues after the contract ends. An optional specialist facilitator training element may also be commissioned.

Requirements

What could rule a small business out: The notice asks for a suitably qualified provider to deliver a large, multi-part programme of training, leadership development and evaluation across the whole organisation for around £90,000, so small businesses without a track record of comparable training and evaluation work across a big organisation are likely to be ruled out.
