Tribal (AIM: TRB), a leading provider of software and services to the international education market, is pleased to announce new contract wins with the Department of Education and Knowledge (ADEK) in Abu Dhabi for Education Services, and Health Education Training Institute (HETI) in Australia for Student Information Systems.

Today's announcement of Tribal's contract win with ADEK is for the full inspection of schools against an agreed framework in Abu Dhabi. The total contract is worth AED28.9m (£6.3m) over two years and work will commence in October this year.

The contract with HETI in Australia is for the implementation of SITS using Tribal's new SITS Accelerate solution, our more standardised version of SITS that reduces implementation effort and enables faster deployment to customers at lower cost. The initial Software as a Service contract is for three years and is worth AUD0.5m (£0.3m).

Mark Pickett, Chief Executive Officer of Tribal, commented:

"Tribal Group are excited about reigniting the strong relationship with ADEK. We have worked with ADEK for a number of years and have had great success in supporting their drive to provide high quality education. We know we work well with ADEK and are confident that the relationship will continue to flourish as we grow and prosper as a company. It is also pleasing to win a new SITS customer in Australia and we look forward to winning further SITS Accelerate customers. The Board's financial expectations for the full year remain unchanged."
