    Brief

    The Irish Department of Education is establishing a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) to streamline the procurement of schoolbooks and eBooks for Community, Comprehensive, and Voluntary Secondary Schools participating in the Free Education Scheme (excluding ETB schools). This centralized procurement solution is designed for the 2025/2026 academic year and beyond, helping schools efficiently source educational materials. Suppliers can register to provide schoolbooks and digital educational content through this framework agreement. The DPS offers an opportunity to serve multiple secondary schools across Ireland through a structured, centralized buying mechanism for the Free Education Scheme.
