The Food for Life Schools Award
A Food for Life Schools Award is a great way to demonstrate that our schools are doing fantastic work to provide healthy school meals, great lunchtimes and food education that has a positive impact on both pupils and the wider community.
The programme supports our schools to:
• Improve health, wellbeing and motivation of pupils and staff.
• Encourage pupils to take part in enrichment activities.
• Enable children to feel empowered to make their own choices to improve wellbeing.
• Connect with parents and your local community.
• As part of the award, every pupil has the opportunity to visit a farm, cook and participate in food growing activities.
