Only two weeks left to share your views of school food in the Welsh Government Healthy Eating Consultation
Have your chance to make a difference to children’s lives by helping create healthy school meals.
We want your views on proposals related to food and drink in maintained primary schools in Wales. We are also calling for evidence on the food provided in secondary schools.

From FB: “Ok what you supply in drinks recently has got double the amount of suger in the flavoured water than the previous drink, your catering only buy from cheap suppliers to make profit, I know I’ve been there, and cutting out rolls in juniors, means, no free meals to the needy children the system dosnt take into account all children.”
Wales leads the UK in providing free school meals to all primary school children. This important step helps tackle child poverty and hunger, supports learners to achieve, and contributes toward improved health, making a real difference in schools and communities across Wales.
We’re looking to update:
- what food and drinks can be provided in schools
- guidance on responsibilities for promoting healthy eating and drinking
These changes will help children:
- develop healthy eating habits
- access healthier food during school hours
- make healthy food choices
Good nutrition helps children perform better and reach their full potential.
