## Description

See 'Attachments' for a full description and further information\. The Department for Education \(DfE\) will tender a contract to deliver an evaluation programme, involving randomised control trials of school-based interventions to promote and support the mental health of children and young people\. We envisage the initial contract will cover a suite of programmes and approaches\. The contracted supplier will have capacity to design and deliver further trials and evaluations of school-based mental health interventions beyond this initial suite, should the department require this\. Due to the range of expertise and capacity required, we envisage that the supplier may be a consortium of organisations and individuals\. We intend to issue a call for expressions of interest on Friday 3 March 2017, with a deadline of 24th March\. Those not registered as DfE suppliers should complete the supplier registration form before 3 March 2017 to receive a notification of the call for expressions of interest \(https://www\.gov\.uk/government/organisations/department-for-education/about/research\)\. Additional information: We expect to publish the call for expressions of interest on 3 March 2017 via the DfE research webpage \(https://www\.gov\.uk/government/organisations/department-for-education/about/research\) and Contracts Finder\. In order to receive a notification of the call for expressions of interest, those not already registered as DfE suppliers should complete the supplier registration form before 3 March via the DfE research webpage above\. We expect to issue invitations to tender on 31 March 2017\. Further information about the ITT stage will be given as part of the call for expressions of interest\.
