II.2.4) Description of the procurement

Wilson’s School Overview:

Wilson's is one of the country's most successful state-funded selective boys' schools. We believe that school life should be enjoyed for itself and not just as a preparation for adulthood. Opportunities for learning and enriching experiences beyond the classroom are excellent; sport and music are very strong. Lessons engage pupils' attention with pace and challenge, enriched with all sorts of activity to extend pupils’ interests and skills far beyond the confines of the National Curriculum and examination specifications. Teachers know the boys very well and visitors often comment on the laughter, good humour and warmth that mark relationships between boys and staff.

Innovative and creative ideas as to how the cleaning and wardening services can be developed and improved, will be welcomed. The school seeks a contractor that is keen to work in partnership and who will deliver to its highest abilities, at all times.
