About the NASPM Supplier Directory
Suppliers listed in the NASPM Supplier Directory have provided evidence of the declarations set out in our onboarding criteria, including public liability insurance, professional indemnity insurance (where applicable), relevant school experience, and professional qualifications or professional body memberships. NASPM has checked that this information has been provided at the point of listing and at annual renewal. NASPM does not assess or verify the quality, suitability or performance of suppliers, the adequacy of safeguarding arrangements, or whether a supplier is appropriate for any particular School or engagement.
Listing in the Directory is not an endorsement, recommendation, or guarantee by NASPM of any supplier, their products, services, or business. Schools and other users remain responsible for their own procurement decisions, including without limitation, safeguarding checks, due diligence, contract negotiation, and contractual arrangements with any listed supplier, and for any dealings between them. Schools should not rely on a Directory Listing as a substitute for their own procurement, safeguarding or due diligence processes. Further details of the Directory and how it operates are set out in the Supplier Directory Terms and Conditions. NASPM accepts no liability for the acts, omissions, or performance of listed suppliers.
