Implementing the School Food Plan - education, standards and free school meals

 

Date: Monday, 2nd June 2014

Venue: The Caledonian Club, 9 Halkin Street, LONDON SW1X 7DR

Time: 8.30 - 13.00 
 

Guest of Honour: Myles Bremner, Director, School Food Plan
 

This seminar will provide a timely opportunity to assess the progress being made to improve school food and children's nutrition, one year on from the release of the School Food Plan. Planned sessions focus on the introduction of universal infant school meals from September 2014, with particular attention to the latest thinking on securing access to funding, improving the quality of school kitchens and the potential for expanding the scheme to include more children.
 

With Government also due to implement revised school food standards and introduce cooking lessons to the national curriculum for 7-14 year olds from September 2014, delegates will have the opportunity to discuss the challenges for their implementation - including ensuring the understanding of new regulations and the readiness of schools and caterers. Sessions will bring together key policymakers from Parliament and Whitehall with regulators and stakeholders with an interest in this area, including schools, academies, free schools, suppliers, local authorities, charities, commentators and campaign groups.
