## Description

On 25 May, the Department for Education \(DfE\) launched a procurement exercise to fund up to two providers to plan and run at least 20 Phonics Roadshows across two Lots, one in the north, and one covering the rest of England\. The DfE wants to build on the successes achieved by the phonics roadshows funded to date\. The purpose of these roadshows, and those that have already taken place, is to promote effective practice in the teaching of systematic synthetic phonics\. This new procurement brings reception year into scope, as well as key stage 1, and the transition between these phases\. The Invitation to tender letter is here - https://www\.contractsfinder\.service\.gov\.uk/Notice/2801272d-ce55-4190-baa5-eb6428ca0e11 The DfE will administer the procurement process electronically via email\. No hard copy documents will be issued; all communications with DfE \(including final tender submission\) will be conducted via email\. See 'Attachments' for full update\. See 'Attachments' for description and further information\. Additional information: A supplier event is planned for 27 February 2018 between 1000-1300 at: Department for Education Sanctuary Buildings Great Smith Street London SW1P 3BT This event will enable organisations to gain a better understanding of the DfE's requirements\. We will explore the capacity of the market to deliver this programme, and take on board any suggestions from the sector about how the services should be delivered\. This will also provide an opportunity for networking and possible consortia discussions\.
