Derby City Council awarded a contract to ACCESS TRAINING (EAST MIDLANDS) LTD, Baby T Workshops, CAST Angling Projects, Catharsis - Creative Arts Therapy Ltd, Derby City Boxing Academy, EDUC8 Leicestershire Limited, Engineered Learning Ltd, and Fleet Ed for the provision of alternative education services via a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS).

The DPS, valued at AUD 1,900,000, operated from 01/06/2018 to 31/05/2020, with options for annual extensions for a further five years.

It allowed Kingsmead School to fulfil its statutory duty to provide suitable education for children of compulsory school age who are excluded from school or otherwise unable to receive suitable education.

The DPS enabled new organisations to join at any time, subject to suitability criteria, and service requirements were tendered through mini-competitions.

Other Free Schools, Academies, and Independent Schools in Derby could also access the DPS with Kingsmead School's support.
