Description

East Riding of Yorkshire Council's Economic Development and Communications service is leading on the UK Government's Levelling Up plans for the East Riding; an aspect of these plans is the Multiply Programme. The aim of Multiply is to help people, who currently do not hold a Level 2 qualification in Maths, improve their ability to understand and use maths in daily life, home, and work, whether that is improving household finances, helping children with homework, making more sense of the facts in the media, or improving numeracy skills specific to a line of work.This tender specially addresses Intervention Multiply B only. Courses designed to help people use numeracy to manage their money. For a proportion of the East Riding's population traditional learning methods have failed and alternative methods are required to overcome anxieties and to engage individuals in informal learning and progressing them into more structured learning. The focus of the Multiply programme is to ensure that activities are client-centred and learning methods are appropriate and accessible. The learning will build on the existing skills of an individual, increasing their confidence and moving them towards Level 2. Provision will need to be informal and non-accredited utilising everyday activities to attract and engage with residents, such as shopping, budgeting, borrowing money, understanding credit etc, whilst embedding numeracy within these activities. Not typically classroom based, and more innovative use of "touch points" such as money advice, community or housing type services. All activities will be delivered within the context of local needs and practical and lived experiences, ensuring learning can be seen as relevant and valuable. Activities will encourage clients to participate in group and independent work with peer learning and support being a key feature. Activities will be provided in a variety of accessible venues across the East Riding, to ensure there are opportunities to participate. Multiply funded activities are intended to support clients to move forward confidently in life, work, and further learning. Whilst activities will be intentionally informal to ensure the widening of participation, clients will be encouraged to consider on an individual level what success will look like for them personally. capability. Tendering is by invitation only
