Monitoring and Support services for Enriching Local Curriculum (ELC) August 2022 – Jan 2026

This procurement aims to secure monitoring and support services for Enriching Local Curriculum (ELC).
The Ministry is in the process of procuring Enriching Local Curriculum Services for school years 2022 – 2025. (Monitoring Services will continue until the beginning of calendar 2026.)
We expect there to be approximately 70 - 100 successful respondents delivering ELC to ākonga across Aotearoa New Zealand.

Monitoring
The successful monitoring provider will use a number of data gathering processes, including the receipt and analysis of provider RBA reports. They will respond to these sources and compile reports for the Ministry.
The report will include numbers of students accessing the ELC services, and the student/hours delivered as well as collation of teacher feedback.

Support
The provider will also use its knowledge of teaching and learning in Early Learning, English medium and Māori medium settings, and the role of rich curriculum experience in enhancing learning to provide advice to providers and the Ministry. The provider will be able to provide advice on developing strong relationships with local knowledge holders including mana whenua.
They will become familiar with the funding agreements each provider has entered into and will advise those providers on successful delivery
There will be an element of evaluation in these services, but this is not a formal evaluation procurement
