The service provides catering with 960 pupils ranging from 7 to 18 years and including approximately 60 boarders, and 180 staff. The Contractor is responsible for setting up the dining area for a full restaurant service, clearing / cleaning the dining area on a daily or as required basis to agreed standards. Provides overall supervision to ensure that the service is carried out in line with the contract specification including; - The ability to cater for all pupils and staff - Full hospitality service including sports / match teas, external events including lettings - Cafe management - Allergy awareness, warning, training in line with current legislation and school requirements. The estimated total contract value for the full duration of the contract term is £8.5m. The duration of the contract is 5 years, subject to the right of the City (at its sole discretion) to exercise its right to extend the Contract by up to 2 years. The maximum length of the contract is therefore 7 years.
