Hall Green Secondary School celebrated their 50th anniversary in 2014. The School moved from Sparkhill Commercial College on the Stratford Road, to the current location in Southam Road, in 1964.

Hall Green is a School that continually seeks to build on the successes of the past and shall continue to focus on the essentials that make Hall Green successful: the quality of teaching and learning; personal pastoral care for every individual in the School; strong relationships with parents, carers and the wider community to support pupils in their learning.
The tender project is seeking to appoint a Contractor whose initiative and innovation will be welcomed for the provision of service within the existing facilities for the 900 students on roll and 160 teaching and support staff, with a focus on exciting new food concepts to satisfy a wide range of pupil tastes and dietary requirements. The School would wish the successful contractor to review the current range of services offered and make recommendations accordingly.
The contract being tendered is for 3 years in duration from 1.1.2016 until 31.12.2021 and will operate as a Guaranteed Performance Contract, with the successful Contractor offering the School a guaranteed return / cost per annum for the provision of catering services. Sovereignty of the cash tariff is to remain with Hall Green Secondary School for the duration of this contract.
The School year is based on a calendar of 195 days. 5 days are to be used for staff professional development which means that School will be open to receive students for the legal minimum of 190 days.
The contract offered covers the scope for the provision of all catering services within the School, which currently includes a breakfast offer, morning break, lunch, all hospitality and free issue requirements. Free School meals and hospitality will be charged based on consumption and at net food cost.
Whilst the School prioritises value for money as a key objective of the Competitive Tender Process, the Governing body is not obliged to accept the lowest price.
The value of the current contract is:
- Cash Sales 155 000 GBP;
- Free School Meals 46 000 GBP;
- Hospitality 2 000 GBP.
Hall Green Secondary School expects the successful contractor to enable the continued development of catering through the provision of an innovative, healthy food service, with fresh, seasonal, locally sourced ingredients being prepared on-site. The School expects the successful tenderer to evidence, through their bid, how they shall support and complement its values and support the principles of Every Child Matters.
The School believes that success should be celebrated and that pupils should enjoy their time at School; if lessons are stimulating and challenging then students will love learning. Much time therefore, is spent reviewing and planning schemes of work to ensure that they are differentiated to meet the needs of all students. As a result, the School are very enthusiastic regarding work experience and apprenticeship proposals and would welcome the input of the successful Contractor.

As a School who are continually seeking ways to improve and develop the ethos and environment for students and staff, to give them the facilities they deserve and need to meet the challenges of the 21st Century, any consideration regarding inward capital investment as part of the Contractor's tender submission would be welcomed. The School would wish for the Contractor to look at making this investment within the existing dining area, with attention being given to counter layout and furnishings and the implementation of a procedure that would assist in producing a reduction of current queuing times.
