Education Software

Milton Keynes City Council (‘the Council’) would like feedback from providers who may be interested in the provision of Education Software. The Council currently utilises an education software system to support a broad range of statutory education functions.

The system provides an integrated suite of modules that support local authority responsibilities across education and children’s services, including areas such as admissions, attendance, early years, special educational needs, transport, and other statutory duties. The Council is now reviewing its future requirements to ensure its education software arrangements remain fit for purpose, scalable, and aligned with evolving statutory, operational, and data requirements.

The purpose of this engagement is to: - understand the current supplier market and available solutions, including alternatives or enhancements to existing systems - seek feedback on system capability, service design, innovation, and delivery models - inform the development of a future procurement strategy, specification, and contract model We are keen to hear from providers on the questions published contained within the market engagement document on our e-tendering portal In-Tend . Please respond to the questions latest by 12 noon on Tuesday 26th May 2026 via In-Tend Correspondence section/market engagement stage.

If there is sufficient interest in a market engagement event to explore the proposal in more detail, this will be held on 12th June 2026, via Microsoft Teams. Please also indicate if you would like to receive an invitation which will be sent separately subject to interest.
