Other Information

The Provider List became active on the 1st of September 2016 and was due to expire on the 31st of August 2023. The DPS was extended for a seven (7) month period until the 31st of March 2024 to allow for the completion of the recommissioning process, which gave a new expiry date of the 31st of March 2024 (unless terminated earlier). Due the Council receiving a limited number of bids in the new recommissioning process the Council will not have sufficient Providers on the new Framework to meet the necessary demands for this service. The DPS has therefore been extended for a further 9 months to the 31st of December 2024 to go back out to market again for the new framework. The new expiry date of the DPS is the 31st of December 2024. The extension of the DPS allows the Council to continue to make referrals to current providers already on the Nottinghamshire Approved Provider List. Please note that the Council will not be accepting new applications to the DPS from the 1st of September as the DPS ends on the 31st December and any new schools wishing to provide specialist education placements to the Council must apply to join the new Specialist Education framework instead
