    Brief

    This opportunity involves providing expert writing services to develop subject-specific training content for the Department for Education (DfE). The work encompasses two stages: first, creating content for DfE's consultation process, and second, producing the final published version that DfE will distribute to awarding organisations. These organisations will then use the content as the basis for developing qualifications for delivery to learners. The successful supplier will need to have strong subject matter expertise, excellent writing skills, and the ability to work collaboratively with DfE stakeholders throughout the consultation and publication process.
