Background
We think parents, students, and school staff deserve clear information about what children are eating. With over 25% of UK children overweight or obese, we think transparency would help promote healthier eating habits. Supporting Special Dietary Needs: Many students have allergies, intolerances, or medical conditions that require specific nutritional management. Encouraging Schools to Improve Standards: When meal data is visible, we think there is a greater incentive for schools to offer nutritious, balanced options.
