Independent Alternative Provision is provision largely for one-to-one support, children and young people who require specialist intervention (in many cases but not exclusively for their additional needs) which in many cases is delivered in the home or in the community with the support of / or at the request of families.

Lot 3: Specialist Teachers
Lot 4: Registered Therapies supporting education (covered under HCPC)
Lot 5: Other services supporting education

SCC intends to evaluate new applications to the 'Admission' stage twice a year. The Council reserves the right to revise the number of evaluation Rounds ('opening ceremonies') for Admission stage per year at its discretion to allow further applicants to apply in an emergency.
The Council will add Providers to the DPS throughout its duration, providing that the Providers meet the requirements outlined in the Invitation to Tender documents and submit an Application that is found to be compliant.

There will be no limit to the number of Providers admitted onto the DPS, providing they meet the minimum requirements as set out in the Invitation to Tender documents.
