Supermarket chain Tesco has teamed with education specialist RM for the retailer’s new voucher collection scheme.

The partnership deal is an extension of an existing voucher scheme support agreement. It will see the consolidation of Tesco’s voucher set-up - Computers for Schools and Sport for Schools and Clubs - for a new collection system that goes live next year.

Under the combined scheme – which the companies claim to be the largest of its kind in the UK – schools will be provided with millions of pounds worth of resources and computer equipment.

“Our enhanced voucher collection scheme will make it easier for schools and clubs to benefit from our programme, and we expect it will prove to be our most popular yet,” said Lucy Neville-Rolfe, corporate and legal affairs director at Tesco.
