The Department for Education has awarded a call-off contract to School-Led Development Trust to deliver the Best Practice Function. The contract is drawn from the Institute of Teaching framework agreement, a procurement vehicle that allows the buyer to call off services from pre-qualified suppliers as demand arises.

School-Led Development Trust will deliver the Best Practice Function under the terms of the framework. Call-off contracts under frameworks are typically shorter-term engagements for specific services, with pricing and terms already negotiated at framework level.

Suppliers working in education policy, school improvement and workforce development should monitor the Institute of Teaching framework for further call-off opportunities. Future calls under the framework will be advertised as they arise.
