The partner should have a clear direction to enhance the service delivery to young people at Kings Heath Secondary School. Additionally, the partner should be a professional organisation that can take the cleaning standard to the next level throughout the entire school day, consistently with clear and defined direction.

The contract will be fixed price in nature, with the Contractor invoicing the Client for one-twelfth of the annual cost on a monthly basis.
Whilst the monthly charge will represent one-twelfth of the contract cost, a reconciliation will take place monthly to reconcile the actual hours worked within the contract.
