Details

The Youth Engagement Service/Integrated Settlement NEET is a service that will deliver targeted activity for young people who are NEET, at risk of becoming NEET, or not yet ready to access mainstream post-16 provision without additional preparation NEET prevention and reduction activity for Manchester residents aged 15-18. The primary focus of this service is young people aged 16-18 who are NEET or at risk of disengagement, young people aged 15 who require earlier preventative support, and eligible young people up to age 25 where this relates to SEND with an Education, Health and Care Plan or Manchester Care Leavers. The service will support these young people to build confidence, readiness, skills and motivation; develop a clear destination plan; access high-quality information, advice and guidance; and move towards an appropriate EET outcome. The service is a distinct targeted progression and re-engagement service which complements, but does not duplicate, the statutory NEET Prevention and Reduction Service (NPRS). The service will add capacity where young people require bespoke support, structured activity, employability development, mentoring, information, advice and guidance, or a staged pathway before they are able to enter or sustain an education, employment or training destination.

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.
