Free school meals vow fulfilled
ALL county-run schools have delivered on Deputy Prime Minster Nick Clegg’s policy of free school meals, a report says.
It says that changes to the kitchens of 215 schools in Hampshire and the Isle of Wight were completed on time and on budget.
The policy, made possible by a £3m grant, aims to provide nourishing lunches for all pupils at Key Stage 1 from September to boost concentration in class.
