We know that life is very busy for parents so we have added some key information, all in one place, to help you make healthy choices to support your child and set them up for a busy day of learning.
Our Approach to Food
Children learn better when they have had a good, healthy lunch. That’s why using the freshest, most natural ingredients is so important in our culture as Education Caterers.
We are very proud that our meals meet the Bronze Standard for Food For Life. More information available on the Food For Life website external link.
School Food Standards
Since December 2015 all school meals are required to adhere to the School Food Standards. All of our menus are checked to ensure they meet these government requirements. For more information, see
GOV.UK standards for school food in England external link.
Eatwell Guide
The
NHS eatwell guide external link shows how much of what we eat overall should come from each food group to achieve a healthy, balanced diet. You don't need to achieve this balance with every meal but try to get the balance right over a day or even a week. This is a useful tool to help everyone try to eat a little bit better.
