GCA framework RM6376

Book Us Directly or Through the GCA Framework RM6376

GAC Education is an approved subcontractor on the Government Commercial Agency framework RM6376, Lot 1, through MAT Recruitment. Our rates are the same whether you book on or off the framework.

Clear Pricing

We are open about our fees from the start. For qualifying placements, there is no fee to take a member of staff on permanently after 12 weeks.

Vetting Passport

Rather than a simple cleared badge, you can see each check for every worker: identity, two proofs of address, qualifications and National Insurance.

Paperwork Ready for Audit

Booking through Lot 1 means you get checked staff on terms already agreed under the framework, in line with public sector buying rules.

SEND and Specialist Checks

Safer recruitment interviews designed for support staff and specialist educators, so you get people who suit settings with high needs.

Frontline Portal

See Who Is Coming Before They Arrive

Ask us for a Guest Access Link and you can view a candidate's digital Vetting Passport, including their photo and when each document was checked, before they arrive at your school.
