Renewal Options

A. You are required to submit an overall 'Set Meal Price' which should include all labour, food, materials, training, insurance and management fee costs. The School will pay the Contractor the agreed price based on actual take-up of free meals. The school does not operate Universal Infant Free School meals due to being a junior school. The 'Set Meal Price' shall be reviewed annually and may be revised in line with change in the RPIX. All changes to costs shall be agreed by the School in writing in advance and prior to implementation. It is the Contractor's responsibility to control costs within the increase allowed by this formula. Please state clearly when submitting prices whether or not VAT will be charged. Please state clearly if the staffing cost include London Living Wage allowance (LLW). B. In addition to the 'Set Meal Price', if caterers wish to submit an additional alternative costing arrangement which allows for greater flexibility and better value for the school, fully explaining the benefits of this alternative pricing structure, then you are welcome to do so. Please note this must be submitted in addition to the 'Set Meal Price' option to ensure there is an initial level of parity between tenders made. C. Furthermore, and again in addition to the above, the school welcomes alternative models of school meal provision that may be available to us; this may include, but is not limited to, food being cooked offsite and brought in hot, or in some other way linked to another local school. Any alternative models will need to include a fully detailed and costed plan and, where in operation already at another school, references from those schools who we will want to be in contact with. The school will be responsible for collection of all monies from parents and the contractor will not have any involvement in the direct collection.
