    Brief

    The Department of Education is establishing a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) to streamline the supply of physical schoolbooks and eBooks to Community, Comprehensive, and Voluntary Secondary Schools participating in the Free Education Scheme (excluding ETB schools) for the 2025/2026 academic year and beyond. This centralized procurement framework is designed to simplify the book ordering process for eligible schools while providing suppliers with a structured channel to distribute educational materials. Suppliers interested in joining this DPS will need to meet qualification requirements and agree to participate in the centralized purchasing mechanism. This opportunity is open to book distributors, publishers, and educational material providers looking to establish contracts with Irish secondary schools under the government's free education initiative.
