Description

The purpose of Ethnic Minority Educational Support Service is to promote the educational achievement, aspirations and experience of children and young people from ethnic minority backgrounds.

The service will:
I. Provide advice and guidance to parents and carers on how they can support their children with their learning and dealing with exclusions.
II. Challenge inequalities that may impact directly or indirectly on their children's learning by working with schools, encouraging them to sign up to the B&NES Race Equality Charter.
III. Provide education support to ethnic minority children and young people who are in the care of the local authority and are placed in schools outside the B&NES area.
The contract will run from 1st April 2025 for 5 years, with the potential for an additional up to 24 months' extension. The contract value is £100,590.
