Healthy schools 

As a Healthy School, we are committed to encouraging and developing positive attitudes towards a healthy diet. Food is central to life and therefore an important part of School life and the activities we engage in. We also believe that adults (staff, parents and carers) should be good role models and have access to information which will help them to provide healthy food for children.

Objectives:

• To promote a school environment and ethos which promotes a healthy lifestyle

• To ensure that the food and drink available across the school day reinforces the healthy lifestyle message

• To promote an understanding of the full range of issues and behaviours which affect lifelong health

• To provide high quality physical education, school sport and physical activity as part of a lifelong healthy lifestyle

• We will maximise the take-up of Free School Meals by tackling any barriers to taking up this entitlement.

• To promote an understanding of the full range of issues and behaviours which affect lifelong health
