Description

The Growth Company (GC) intends to bid as a Prime contractor for the GMCA Multiply contract opportunity. GC is inviting expressions of interest (EOI) from organisations who wish to deliver GMCA Multiply as part of our supply chain.

Funded through UKSPF, Multiply is targeted at adults aged 19+ who do not already have a Level 2 in Maths. The aim of the service and the interventions are to help improve the ability, understanding and use of maths in daily life, home, and work.
GMCA want to increase the number of adults participating in and achieving adult numeracy qualifications up to and including Level 2 (both GCSE C/4 above and Functional Skills qualifications). Proposals need to be complementary to existing schemes such as adult education budget (AEB) and must not displace or duplicate existing numeracy provision.

This EOI is designed to help GC shortlist interested organisations who wish to work with us to deliver GMCA Multiply.

The deadline for submission of the required document is:
18:00 Friday 4th November 2022

Your completed EOI must be uploaded to the Panacea portal by the deadline stated. Please note that the closing date and time is set in the system and you will not be able to apply after the closing date and time.

We look forward to hearing from you.
