The Local Authority Schools ICT service aggregates broadband and a range of associated services on behalf of schools. The service provider, The London Grid for Learning (LGfL), was set up by and is subscribed to by all 33 London Authorities. In 2011 LGFL procured, Virgin Media as its new broadband supplier. This service provides connectivity to the Internet and other services to all schools in Lambeth. This contract extension is for the provision of a broadband connection to Lambeth’s schools for the next three years. Schools have a direct contractual arrangement with LGFL and almost all Lambeth schools are about to begin year three of a five year contract.
