Answer

A closed tender process was undertaken for the Ministry of Education’s review of initial teacher education (ITE) programme requirements. Five organisations (all from the All of Government Consultancy Panel) were invited to tender; three proposals were received. Following an evaluation process, one organisation was selected to undertake the phased review. The Ministry is not releasing the names of organisations involved at this time.
