How the PTA can help
With one in five children leaving primary school obese, one in four low-income families struggling to eat regularly and children going to school hungry, good, nutritious school food and informative food education has never been needed more.
The PTA holds a unique position in school life and can play a powerful role in improving the health and well being of the pupils. But you don't have to go it alone - Food for Life can help.
A Food for Life Schools Award provides an easy to follow framework to support your school to provide healthy school meals, great lunchtimes and food education that has a positive impact on both pupils and the wider community.
Independent evaluation of our programme demonstrates our unique, whole school approach makes a positive contribution to pupil health and wellbeing with many schools reporting a clear impact on their Ofsted report in terms of pupils' personal development and wellbeing.
