The government is to announce an overhaul to school food standards in England that will lead to dishes such as fish and chips and steamed sponges being banned. The new rules, which are part of efforts to lower the rates of childhood obesity, will apply from September.
We would like to hear parents’ views on their children’s school meals. Does your child like eating them? Has there been a change in quality? Have you recently considered switching your children from school dinners to packed lunches?
