North Northamptonshire Council is undertaking preliminary market engagement with providers of Educational Support Services in connection with the potential future re-opening of the Educational Support Services Open Framework. The Framework currently covers Educational Psychology, Speech and Language Therapy, Occupational and Sensory Therapy, Tuition, and Alternative Provision for children and young people aged 0 to 25 years with identified educational needs. The Council wishes to engage with both existing and prospective providers to better understand market capacity, capability, barriers to participation, and opportunities to strengthen the Framework.
