Exactly....... and where the hot school dinner was the norm when I went to school.....packed lunches seem to be the thing now. While you can put healthy food into a packed lunch...you can't always be sure that the healthy packed lunch went into the child...it could very easily have gone into the bin.

When I was at school, we didn't have a school kitchen that made the food......the food was made somewhere in Accrington and was transported to the various schools in insulated containers. I enjoyed school dinners.....it was the only hot food I received each day.

Ruth Kelly is talking about putting something like £280 million pounds into school meals...... but this will not be enough to provide all the schools with kitchen services.
