II.1.4) Short description of the contract or purchase(s): Coventry New
Deal for Communities (NDC) is one of 39 UK Government Grant funded
Community Regeneration focused Area Based Initiatives that is in year
eight of a ten-year delivery cycle. NDC's are intrinsically located in
areas of high deprivation. They have a remit to bring about
transformational and sustainable positive change across both the physical
landscape and the social fabric in the areas that they serve. Within this
context historically projects have been developed and delivered that
engaged the Youth population in the area (approximately 50 % of the NDC
area is under 25) under specific thematic strands. As the programme enters
years 8,9 and 10 the NDC is committed to building on the strong
foundations of working with young people, by delivering two separate but
strategically linked strands. Specifically these are "Diversionary
Activities" and "Raising Aspirations". This Invitation to Tender invites a
Tender response from a Key Delivery Partner to lead and coordinate a team
of complimentary delivery partners. Their task will be to deliver a
comprehensive service, focussed on Raising Aspirations to direct Young
People resident in the Coventry NDC area towards routes of positive
progression. Tenders in response to this "Diversionary Activities" focus
are asked to be aware that the NDC will expect a high degree of co-working
with the successful "Raising Aspirations" Partnership and other NDC
sponsored provision in the area. Tender Responses must demonstrate
additionality over and above the existing mainstream provision delivered
to the young people in the area. The tender response must demonstrate how
Young People will be engaged, empowered and ultimately steered towards
positive progression routes. The outcome for these progression routes can
be either accredited or not, but must be accurately tracked and recorded.
There is need to build clear strategic linkages with other partners
throughout the city responsible for delivering services to Young People,
including those responsible for delivering the Children and Young People's
Plan. A partnership approach is advocated including links to the City
Council's Leisure Service, Youth Service and links to City Wide
initiatives like Safer Neighbourhoods and the AIMS initiative (Active
Information Management) A priority progression route for Young People in
the NDC area will be towards qualifications, skills development,
employment or work based learning. The successful tenderer must gather
information about the demographics and make-up of the Youth cohort and
their aspirations so that as far as possible each young person can receive
a tailored response that addresses their needs. Links to the NDC themes of
Quality of Life, Community Involvement and Crime Reduction especially are
positively encouraged, as well as the priority progression pathway of
Education and Employment. As such clear links to the NDC Workshop/Pertemps
Employment and the work of the Connexions programme are suggested. Please
note that every tender response must have demonstrable processes in place
to carry out CRB checks on all its staff, as this project will place their
staff in a position of trust over Young People. Failure to adhere with
this will automatically exclude applicants from the tender evaluation
process. Youth education services.
