Lycée Français Charles de Gaulle de Londres is looking for organisations to run after-school clubs during school terms and/or holiday clubs during school breaks at their South Kensington primary school for the 2026-2027 school year. This is an expression of interest stage, meaning you're being asked to show you're capable before a full tender is released.
Requirements
- Must be suitably qualified to deliver after-school or holiday club activities
- Must have relevant experience running clubs for primary school-aged children
- Must be able to operate at Lycée Français Charles de Gaulle de Londres, South Kensington location
- Must be available to deliver during term time (after-school) and/or school holiday periods
- Must comply with UK safeguarding and child protection regulations (standard requirement for this sector)
Key Tasks & Deliverables
- Deliver after-school club activities during term time (exact days and hours to be confirmed)
- Deliver holiday club activities during school holiday periods (Easter, summer, Christmas, half-terms)
- Provide age-appropriate programming for primary school children (typically ages 4-11)
- Manage supervision and safeguarding of children during club hours
- Liaise with school staff on scheduling, space allocation, and child welfare
How to Read This Tender
- 1This is an 'expression of interest' (EOI) — not the full tender yet. You're being pre-qualified. The school will shortlist providers before asking for detailed bids, so focus on proving capability rather than detailed pricing at this stage.
- 2Look for the deadline for EOI submissions and the format requested (online form, email, document upload). Schools often have strict submission requirements.
- 3Check whether the school wants you to bid for after-school only, holiday-only, or both — you may be able to choose, so decide which matches your business model.
- 4Safeguarding is critical in school-based childcare. Expect questions about your DBS (Disclosure and Barring Service) checks, child protection policies, and staff training. Have these ready.
- 5The school will specify the location details (South Kensington) and likely the number of children expected, hours of operation, and facilities available — request these details from the school if not in the notice, as they affect your costings.
Tips for Small Businesses
- Consider partnering with other small providers (consortium bid). If you're strong on after-school activities but weak on holiday programming, or vice versa, find a complementary provider and bid together.
- Highlight any existing relationships with similar schools, testimonials from parents or schools, or unique programming (sports, arts, languages). French-language activities or cultural programmes may appeal to this particular school.
- Factor in overheads carefully — you'll need appropriate insurance (child activities liability), trained and DBS-checked staff, and possibly rent for the space. Get the school's space terms in writing before bidding.
