Happier lunchtimes: how to navigate the catering tender process

Thursday 5 February, 3.30-4.30-pm with Q&A from 4.30-5pm

Demystifying school food procurement! This session will help schools understand the procurement process so you can secure a catering contract that delivers quality, value and smoother day-to-day operation.

Join us to gain:

• clarity on how to set up the method for procurement and select the best catering model for your school

• guidance on creating a strong, needs-led specification that reflects your school community

• greater confidence navigating legal requirements and compliance

The session will include opportunities to interact, share experiences and ask questions in a dedicated Q&A segment.

This workshop is for school food teams at London boroughs and is offered as part of the Great Plates Partnership. School Food Matters and the Mayor of London are working together to support London’s primary schools and boroughs to deliver outstanding food on every plate. Find out more here.
