This contract is for a period of 2 years with 4 optional 12 month extensions available which WBC can choose to activate. However, it should be noted that the period and the value of the award remain entirely conditional at all times on the continuation and level of the Government’s Bikeability funding. Annual funding levels cannot be guaranteed more than 12 months ahead and should the funding not be renewed, the contract will be ended at the conclusion of the current 12 month funding period.

There will be a maximum of 12 children on each course with a minimum of 2 instructors. These will be delivered during normal primary school hours.

The Provider will provide Bikeability Standard Level 3 courses to participants aged 11 to 14, individually or on a maximum 1-to-3 basis, either within the school day or as an after school activity or on an ad hoc basis during school holidays or at weekends.
