See 'Attachments' for more details.

The Department for Education is exploring potential commercial options to support the delivery of joint training to mental health leads in children and young people's mental health services (CYPMHS) and schools/colleges across the whole of England. We will be hosting a market engagement event on Friday 14 September from 11:30 to 14:00 in London. The event will be an opportinity for potential suppliers to find out more about the proposed delivery model and potential future procurement process. Suppliers with a strong understanding of children and young people's mental health provision as well as an understanding of how schools/colleges support pupils' mental health and those with experience of facilitating joint working between health and education services may be interested in attending this event.

Additional information: If you would like to attend please email mentalhealth.team@education.gov.uk by noon on Tuesday 11 September with the name of up to 2 people per organisation who would like to attend. Please indicate in the subject box 'schools link programme market engagement event'.

Please note that this PIN is not a call to competition and the DfE is not bound to enter into any procurement activity because of it.
