Tate Schools is a new digital space for teachers and students on Tate's website that will fully launch in Autumn 2025. It will be a prominent and accessible digital destination for teachers, with a comprehensive set of thought-provoking and inclusive resources and tools designed to bring artists, ideas and Tate's collection directly into classrooms across the UK. We are looking for a supplier to produce and deliver an online multi-sensory creation game to complement the range of classroom resources currently available on this platform. The game, or interactive making tool, must be designed and developed with the needs of students with SEND (special educational needs and disabilities) as a priority, specifically students with PMLD (profound and multiple learning disabilities), but which is engaging and usable for all abilities. It should be intuitive to play, with minimal instructions and visual communication (use of symbols and clear icons) prioritised. It should not be dependent on fine motor skills. It must offer a multi-sensory route into digital creativity that is visually and sonically rich - encouraging a playful, exploratory process with a digital outcome which can be shared with classmates/ teachers/ family and friends. Within the game there should be options for materials and encourage process-led making in the classroom using sound/ colour/ texture. The tone and atmosphere of this digital experience should be calming and support engagement and curiosity in the present moment. It could be used as a resource to support students' wellbeing in the classroom.

Tenderers that do not currently hold these levels of insurance will need to do so prior to award, at no extra cost to Tate.\nPlease confirm within your response that you hold this insurance cover or commit to taking it out before the start of the contract.\nFinancial Stability\nLiquidity Test (Acid Test)\n(Current Assets - Stock) / Current Liabilities From the latest 2 years accounts, the average\nresult of the Test should be 0.8 or greater e.g. Y1 -\n1.3, Y2 - 1.6 equals an average of 1.45.\nPlease provide your last 2 years accounts so that Tate can independently verify that you meet this threshold.\nPlease also provide evidence of your VAT status\ni.e. a VAT number.\nCase study examples (within last 5 years)\nTenderers should ideally possess relevant experience, demonstrated by on-going and historical contract information. However, it is recognised that this may not be possible for Tenderers new to the field, or for small providers whose customer base is limited, in which case the information given should relate as closely as possible to this ideal. Tenderers who are unable to demonstrate this will fail.\nPlease provide 2 case study examples, undertaken in the last 5 years, of providing similar work."
