    Brief

    The Department of Education is establishing a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) to supply schoolbooks and eBooks to secondary schools participating in Ireland's Free Education Scheme. This centralized procurement solution is available to Community and Comprehensive schools, and Voluntary Secondary Schools (excluding ETB schools) for the 2025/2026 academic year and beyond. Suppliers can register to provide textbooks and digital learning materials through this framework agreement, which simplifies the procurement process for participating schools and creates a streamlined channel for educational material distribution. Interested vendors should be prepared to offer competitive pricing, reliable delivery, and support for both print and digital formats.
