Edwin secures place on Value Match/Heart Academies framework

We are proud to announce our appointment as an approved supplier on the Value Match/Heart Academies framework. We have been awarded a place on both Lot 1 (direct services) and Lot 2 (managed services), reinforcing our position as a trusted partner for multi-academy trusts across the UK.
This recognition reflects our commitment to delivering high-quality, sustainable staffing solutions tailored to the evolving and unique needs of education providers. Through our inclusion in the framework, we offer trusts a fully procurement-compliant route to staffing.
Since February, Vision for Education, part of Edwin, has been actively supporting trusts within the framework. Their work has focused on helping organisations build more strategic, cost-effective, and reliable staffing models.
Edwin’s dual-lot approval enables our teams to support a wide range of staffing requirements, from direct recruitment services to fully managed workforce solutions. This flexibility ensures that multi-academy trusts can access consistent, high-quality talent pipelines while maintaining financial efficiency and compliance.
Multi-academy trusts interested in leveraging the Value Match/Heart Academies framework can now partner with Edwin to benefit from a more consistent and reliable approach to supply staffing. Edwin’s proven track record includes supporting trusts in achieving improved workforce stability, reduced costs, and enhanced educational outcomes.
