Capita signs contract with Staffordshire County Council
Capita plc (`Capita') can confirm that it has now signed a contract to create
an educational support services joint venture (`JV') with Staffordshire County
Council. The JV, in which Capita holds a majority stake, will initially deliver
a range of educational support services for schools and academies in the
Staffordshire region. These services are expected to generate revenues of
approximately £85m per annum over 20 years.
The JV will additionally focus on achieving significant growth through securing
new local authority, school, academy and further and higher education clients
across the UK. With the UK schools education support services market currently
estimated to be worth around £16bn per year, the JV is targeting total revenue
of at least £2bn over the first 10 years.
To support the delivery of these key services, around 3,800 Council employees
will TUPE transfer to the JV from 1 April 2013.
Capita previously announced that it had been selected as preferred bidder by
Staffordshire County Council on 27 November 2012.
