What councils are saying about educational psychology
Educational Psychology is one of the procurement themes QuorumInsight tracks across UK local government, detected in 793 meeting mentions spanning 196 councils. Every mention comes from an analysed council meeting — a cabinet decision, a committee discussion or a budget report — so this is a picture of what councils are actually planning and debating, not a directory of published tenders.
Discussion has been rising quarter-on-quarter: there were 231 mentions in the last three months, against 63 in the three months before. For suppliers, that matters because activity in a council meeting typically precedes any formal procurement by months. Reading it early is the difference between shaping a requirement and responding to one. Educational Psychology sits within the broader education category.
