Extract from Headteachers welcome:

I am delighted to welcome you to St Michael’s. As a Church of England Academy in the Diocese of Blackburn, our values are deeply rooted in the Christian faith. Our vision is for every pupil, as well as staff and our wider community, to grow in body, mind, and spirit—to flourish as a child of God and experience the joy of ‘life in all its fullness.’ (John 10:10) We are very much a team here; pupils, staff, parents, and governors work together to create a vibrant, caring environment. We set high expectations and place great importance on celebrating the uniqueness of each individual, recognising that every person is a precious child of God, gifted with their own strengths and talents. At St Michael’s, we are outward facing, working to build strong partnerships with families, churches, local organisations, and the wider community. These relationships enrich our lives, providing opportunities for growth, not only for pupils, but for all involved. Our academic standards are consistently high, with results placing us in the top 10% of non-selective schools nationally at Key Stage 4.[KG2.1][DL2.2] This success is underpinned by a research-informed approach to teaching and a commitment to developing resilient, lifelong learners who embrace challenge. Personal and spiritual development are central to all we do here. Through our Character and Spiritual Education (CASE) Programme, worship, assemblies, careers provision, and enrichment activities such as the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award and pupil leadership, we continually strive to nurture well-rounded individuals; young people who are ready to make a difference in our rapidly changing world. Our motto, Therefore Choose (Deuteronomy 30:19) underpins our lives as we guide pupils to make positive, meaningful life choices. We’re proud of our calm, respectful environment where every pupil can thrive. We continue to innovate, investing in our curriculum, facilities, and technology.

Documents

Before you bid on this tender

A quick checklist to help you decide whether to bid and prepare a compliant submission for this education & training opportunity. Always verify the details on the official source.

  • Confirm the exact closing date and time (and time zone) on the official portal — deadlines are strict and can be revised by a corrigendum.
  • Read the full notice and every attached document, including the scope, specifications and any bill of quantities or terms of reference.
  • Check the eligibility criteria — prior similar experience, annual turnover, certifications and registrations — and make sure you qualify before investing effort.
  • Prepare any earnest-money deposit (EMD) or bid security and the required formats early; missing or wrongly-formatted documents are a common cause of rejection.

  • Watch for corrigenda and clarifications right up to the deadline — requirements and dates can change.
