Highsted Grammar School is seeking a supplier for cleaning services across its Sittingbourne, Kent site. The 11–18 selective girls’ school (four form entry, PAN 120) converted to Academy status in 2010 and currently serves 799 pupils and 96 teaching and support staff; its most recent Ofsted inspection rated the school outstanding in all areas. The school requires cleaning that meets health and safety regulations, supports delivery of quality education and staff/pupil well-being, and reflects its high expectations for the environment. The contract is for three years from 1 September 2026 and will operate as a Guaranteed Performance Contract with a guaranteed annual return/cost for cleaning services. The school year is based on 195 days, with five days for staff professional development, meaning the school will be open to pupils for a minimum of 190 days.
