    Brief

    Derbyshire Council is conducting a Pre-Market Engagement exercise to identify and evaluate educational psychology service providers who can support Educational Health and Care Needs Assessments (EHCNAs) within statutory timeframes under the SEND Code of Practice. Background: The Council faces high demand for SEND-related assessments and services and needs to secure sufficient educational psychology capacity to meet this demand efficiently and effectively. Key Objectives: - Explore the availability and quality of educational psychology services in the local market - Understand provider capability and capacity to meet current and future demand - Identify innovative solutions and emerging technologies that could improve service efficiency, quality assurance, and administration - Ensure best value for public resources while maintaining compliance with legal obligations - Develop sustainable long-term service delivery models ahead of government SEND reforms Scope: The Council welcomes input from all educational psychology professionals and service providers, including those interested in partnership arrangements. Responses should address market capability, service quality, innovation potential, business continuity, and financial sustainability considerations. This is a pre-procurement consultation to inform future commissioning decisions for educational psychology services in Derbyshire.
