Matched automatically by the notice's main CPV code, so a few may be near misses and some education and training work filed under other codes won't appear. Contains public sector information licensed under the Open Government Licence v3.0. We don't copy named contacts from notices; follow the link for the buyer's own instructions. Scottish, Welsh and Northern Irish buyers also publish on Public Contracts Scotland, Sell2Wales and eTendersNI, which this list doesn't cover.
How to bid for public sector education and training contracts
- Plan for background checks. Work with children or vulnerable adults usually involves checks through the Disclosure and Barring Service in England and Wales, or the PVG scheme in Scotland. Source: Disclosure and Barring Service (GOV.UK).
- Register on Find a Tender first. Under the Procurement Act 2023 notices are published on the central digital platform, and buyers must get confirmation that you have registered and submitted your core supplier information before you take part in a procurement. Source: Guidance: Central Digital Platform and Publication of Information (GOV.UK).
- Look for lots. Before publishing a tender notice, a buyer must consider whether the contract could be split into lots, and give reasons if it isn't. Lots can bring part of a large contract within reach of a smaller business. Source: Procurement Act 2023, section 18: duty to consider lots.
- Know your payment rights. Most public contracts include an implied term that undisputed valid invoices are paid within 30 days (exceptions include contracts awarded by schools and concession contracts). Source: Procurement Act 2023, section 68: implied payment terms.
- Go/no-go before you write. Read the full notice and documents, check you can meet the conditions of participation and the deadline, and walk away from poor fits. Our free go/no-go checklist helps. Source: Procurement Act 2023 guidance (GOV.UK).
FAQ
Do I need a DBS or PVG check?
If the work involves children or vulnerable adults, expect the buyer to ask for checks: the Disclosure and Barring Service covers England and Wales and the Protecting Vulnerable Groups (PVG) scheme covers Scotland. The tender documents will say what is required.
Where are public sector education and training contracts advertised?
In England, Wales and Northern Ireland most are published on Find a Tender (the central digital platform under the Procurement Act 2023) and lower-value ones also on Contracts Finder. Scottish buyers mainly use Public Contracts Scotland, and Welsh buyers also use Sell2Wales. This page lists education and training notices from Find a Tender and Contracts Finder only.
How up to date is this list?
The data was last refreshed on 25 October 2026. It covers notices published or updated in the 45 days before that, with a response deadline still to come when the page was built. We refresh it weekly. Always check the official notice: it is the only authoritative version.
Can you guarantee I will win a contract?
No. No one honestly can. Most bids do not win. We show you open opportunities and, if you want, help you decide which are worth bidding for.
