Pupils attending Learning Centres may be located all over the county, as the centre they attend is largely determined by availability of places at the time. We are seeking experienced operators to organise, plan and operate transport as per the requirements of the individual Learning Centre. The procurement was divided into four Lots, with each Lot corresponding to one Learning Centre: • Lot 1: Dorchester Learning Centre • Lot 2: The Forum Centre • Lot 3: The Orchard (Forum Centre satellite provision) • Lot 4: Harbour Vale Learning Centre Tenderers could tender for one, multiple or all Lots.
