Healthy Eating

Whole School Food Policy

The aims of this policy are to ensure that:

- pupils have sufficient information about food and nutrition to allow them to make informed choices about what they eat and drink, both in and out of school.

- the appointed school caterer provides healthy goods in sufficient quantity.

- vending machines sell only healthy options.

- students are able to contribute to discussions with the caterer to determine what is sold, so long as requests comply with the school’s healthy eating policy.

- a development plan is produced which is a live document and is updated each time that this policy is revised.

- students, staff and their families are encouraged to improve their eating habits by increasing their knowledge and awareness of food issues, including what constitutes a healthy and environmentally sustainable diet, and hygienic food preparation and storage methods.
