A contract to supply school lunch boxes awarded to a billion pound company was jus to reward rich Tory party donors and cronies and nothing to do with feeding hungry children.

The government told the companies to delivery approximately £7 worth of food and gave them £15 for it.

And then they actually delivered about £2.50 in the case that's been in the papers.
It all needs reform. Free school meals are for poor children during term time, now they get food parcels but only to cover Mon-Fri.
Schools get £X per day per pupil to cover providing a meal - including staff and so on so clearly the child does not get £X of food. During these weird times of course someone has to be paid to make up these boxes but you would think the overhead should be less as it is putting stuff in a box... though I am unclear if these get delivered or are for pickup?
Maybe we should return to free school meals regardless of wealth. But what to do in holidays will remain a problem.Originally posted by MaryPoppinsI'd still not breastfeed a naziOriginally posted by vetranUrine is quite nourishingComment

Seen and listened to teachers, TA and even suppliers saying they would prefer most of the families to have vouchers. However for the teachers and TAs they can use delivery of the food parcels to check on the minority of students they are worried about.
Oh and there is a charity in the Manchester area who delivers food parcels for free."You’re just a bad memory who doesn’t know when to go away" JRComment
