About this service

We’ve already helped over 5000 schools and trusts

We aim to help you:

• get good value for money
• save time
• buy compliantly

We are impartial and take no payments or commissions from our DfE-approved solutions.

Our only incentive is to help you buy what you need for your school.

Quickly find what you need

Our DfE-approved buying solutions are all compliant so you can use them to buy what you need.

You can make small purchases through catalogues.

Webinars and events

We run a series of free webinars during the academic year.

They are designed to highlight DfE-approved routes to market to buy a wide range of goods and services.

These live webinars explain the buying process in a clear and easy to understand way and offer the opportunity to ask questions or seek further advice and support.
