Why Connex?
What you need to do now
From September 2026, single and multi-academy trusts must procure supply staff through the GCA RM6376 framework, unless they can evidence a compliant alternative that aligns with the Procurement Act 2023 and does not exceed the rates available through the framework.
That means schools and trusts should now review how they currently procure supply staff, ensuring their route to market is compliant, transparent and cost-controlled. Acting early gives your Finance, HR and Procurement teams time to assess your position and avoid any last-minute pressure ahead of the September deadline.
Connex Education can help you understand what the framework means for your organisation and how Lot 1 could support your current and future staffing requirements.
