School Cleaning Tender Enquiry Form

A school tender template — sites, standards and TUPE captured, so a trust can put its cleaning out to tender and get comparable bids.

Description

When a school or multi-academy trust puts cleaning out to tender, it needs comparable, compliant bids across every site — not a scatter of quotes. This form runs a school cleaning tender, so a business manager or trust can capture the sites, the standards and the commercials in one place and get like-for-like proposals back. It captures what a school tender needs to be comparable: the number and type of schools, the pupil numbers and floor areas, the term-time and holiday requirements, the standard and safeguarding expectations (DBS, single central record), TUPE if an existing workforce transfers, and the contract start and length. Structured bids are what make the award defensible to the trust board and the auditors. Put it on your “tender” page. Free, brandable, and it turns a multi-site school procurement into a structured, comparable tender.

Template FAQs

Common questions about the School Cleaning Tender Enquiry Form — what it captures, when to use it, and how to make it your own.

What's this form for?

Running a cleaning tender across one or more schools. It captures the sites, standards, safeguarding and commercials in one structured place so bidders quote like-for-like and you can compare and award defensibly.

How many schools can it cover?

From a single school to a whole trust. The form captures the sites and their sizes so bidders can price mobilization, supervision and holiday cover realistically across the portfolio.

What about TUPE?

If an existing cleaning workforce would transfer, TUPE usually applies. The form asks up front so bidders factor it in — it’s a standard and significant part of school cleaning tenders.

How do we specify safeguarding?

The form captures the DBS and single-central-record expectations so every bidder quotes to the same safeguarding standard. In a school, that’s non-negotiable and part of the comparison.

Should we include term and holiday needs?

Yes — the split between term-time cleaning and holiday deep cleans is central to school cleaning cost, so the form captures it to keep bids comparable and complete.

Is the tender form free?

Yes — free with a Fun Forms account, fully customizable, and it embeds on your site or shares as a link.
