School Food Standards Update

Dear Parents and Carers,

Please find below a letter from our school catering provider, Impact Food Group, regarding the government’s consultation on proposed changes to School Food Standards.

The letter outlines the proposed changes, what they may mean for schools and families, and how you can take part in the consultation should you wish to share your views. You can read more and respond to the consultation here.

We wanted to share this information with you as it may be of interest, particularly as the consultation provides an opportunity for schools, parents and carers to help shape future school food provision.
