In 2000 HMP Buckley Hall came into public sector management under a new service level agreement. In 2003 the prison re-roled and became a female prison and then, due to the rising number of male prisoners in the estate and the decrease in female prisoners.

HMP Buckley Hall re-roled back to a Male Category C training Prison in 2005. From 2009 to 2011 HMP Buckley hall underwent another tendering process and in March 2011 the contract was again awarded to the Public Sector Prisons. It operates still as a male Category C Training Prison.
