Regional Care Co-operatives Delivery Partner

Policy Background In February 2023, the Department for Education published a vision to transform children’s social care: Stable Homes, Built on Love: Implementation Strategy and Consultation. This strategy set out proposals for reform in response to recommendations from the Independent Review of Children’s Social Care (2022), the Child Safeguarding Practice Panel review into the murders of Arthur Labinjo-Hughes and Star Hobson (2022) and the Competition and Markets Authority’s market study into children’s social care provision (2022). The strategy set out 6 pillars of reform, backed by £200 million of additional investment. The pillars of reform are: 1. Family Help provides the right support at the right time so that children can thrive with their families. 2. A decisive multi-agency child protection system. 3. Unlocking the potential of family networks. 4. Putting love, relationships and a stable home at the heart of being a child in care. 5. A valued, supported and highly skilled social worker for every child who needs one. 6. A system that continuously learns and improves and makes better use of evidence and data. As part of pillar 4, the strategy committed to testing a regional model for planning, commissioning and delivering children’s social care placements, called Regional Care Co-operatives (RCCs). The government’s long-term vision for RCCs is that they will: • Plan, commission and deliver all children’s care placements, across fostering, children’s homes and secure homes. • Improve forecasting of demand leading to better informed plans; enabling areas to ensure there are sufficient placements and support available to meet the needs of children who are in care. • Gain economies of scale, in particular around placements for children and young people with multiple complex needs and in negotiations with providers, to ensure that every pound spent makes the biggest impact possible for children. • Have greater collaboration with health and justice commissioners to improve services for children in care. • Reform foster parent recruitment and retention and, where necessary, create new forms of care to meet local need so that more children in care can stay in family environments and closer to home. RCCs are part of a broader package of measures to transform the care placement market, including: • Investing £259 million to support areas to maintain capacity and expand provision in both secure and open children’s homes. • Investing £27m to recruit and retain more foster carers. • Implementing the CMA recommendations on: o providing national forecasting, procurement, and market shaping support; o introducing a financial oversight regime; and o reforming standards of care. • Considering changes to ensure that planning requirements, or local interpretation of them, are not a barrier to the creation of more homes for children. Stable Homes, Built on Love set out that the Department would set up two RCC pathfinders over this Spending Review period to test a new regional approach to providing homes for looked after children, within the current legal framework, ahead of bringing forward legislation when parliamentary time allows. The Department will work with local authorities and other key stakeholders to co-design the pathfinders, with a view to rolling out after evaluating the best approach in conjunction with the sector. Both a delivery partner and evaluation partner will be procured to support this work.

PROCUREMENT OF A CONTRACTOR TO RECRUIT TRUSTEES TO ACADEMY TRUSTS

Academy trustees are volunteers who are responsible for ensuring a trust’s clarity of vision, ethos and strategic direction, holding executive leaders to account, and overseeing and ensuring effective financial performance. Trust boards therefore need to be made up of trustees with the necessary expertise and skill to fulfil these functions effectively. The role is a significant commitment and while there are already many dedicated trustees across the country, it can be difficult for some trusts to find and recruit the right people with the skills they need.We expect this to be a bespoke recruitment service which places the right people in the right roles, with a real focus on high quality matches. We expect the vacancies to be filled through this service to have characteristics which make them challenging for the board to recruit to without support. For example, the provider may need to find trustees for trusts with challenging geography or religious characteristics or be asked to source candidates with very specific skillsets.All trusts receiving support through the programme will be ones the department is working with to drive improvement and trustees joining such boards will need to be able to deliver support effectively and at pace. The department is also therefore looking for a provider who will be able to offer a high quality onboarding support to candidates.The tender is for a two-year contract, with the option of a contract extension (+1) subject to need and funding being available.Organisations wishing to participate in this contract opportunity must do so through DfE's eTendering portal (Jaggaer).Registration is free of charge and full system support is available via the Jaggaer homepage.In order to access this opportunity in Jaggaer potential suppliers must first click 'view opportunities' from the Jaggaer homepage and then express their interest to gain access to the full document suite.

APMS Caretaking Services for Ivel Medical Centre, Biggleswade

NHS Bedfordshire, Luton and Milton Keynes Integrated Care Board (BLMK ICB) (referred to<br/>as the Commissioner) is inviting suitably qualified and experienced providers who currently<br/>hold either a GMS or an APMS contract/s to deliver GP services in the BLMK area, to express<br/>an interest in delivering caretaking services for Ivel Medical Centre in Biggleswade, Central<br/>Bedfordshire, by responding to this opportunity as required and described in this document,<br/>and within the published tender.<br/><br/>Ivel Medical Centre is situated in the pleasant market town of Biggleswade in Central<br/>Bedfordshire. Following the Covid pandemic, the practice has experienced challenges<br/>relating to access, patient demand and expectation which has led to some negative publicity<br/>in the local area about the practice and in part has impacted on recruitment and retention,<br/>particularly of GPs. The main issues have related to concerns about access, patients not<br/>being able to book appointments in person at the practice, the telephone system, and staff<br/>turnover. No concerns have been raised about the quality of patient clinical care.<br/><br/>The caretaker provider will need to demonstrate how they will ensure adequate clinical<br/>staffing is in place to meet the needs of the practice population and have a clear plan for how<br/>they will address the individual operational concerns, listed above, as well as positively<br/>promote the practice in the local area. Bidders will be required to demonstrate how they will<br/>deal with and overcome the issues in their responses to the technical questions published<br/>with this tender pack.<br/><br/>Given the issues listed above and the urgent need to stabilise the services provided at Ivel<br/>Medical Centre, the ICB has decided the most appropriate way to achieve this aim is to offer<br/>the caretaking services only to current GMS or APMS providers who are already delivering<br/>primary medical care services in the BLMK area as they will already be familiar with the local<br/>systems, pathways, processes, and have established links with local system stakeholders.<br/><br/>The caretaker provider will need to use their knowledge of delivery of primary care medical<br/>services within BLMK to mobilise quickly and bring stability to the practice’s staff and patients<br/>while building resilience and providing reassurance to the local community. This will enable<br/>the ICB to ensure a safe and sustainable GP service is delivered while they work with local<br/>system partners to develop, consider and implement longer term plans for meeting the<br/>ongoing general practice needs of patients.
