Nutrition Standards for School Lunches

In April 2001, the Government’s compulsory guidelines for caterers on minimum Nutrition Standards for School Lunches came into force. These Standards apply to nursery, primary and secondary schools maintained by local education authorities in England.

Guidance and support for caterers regarding the implementation of these regulations and monitoring the nutritional quality of food provision, can be found at: www.dfes.gov.uk/schoollunches/default.shtml.

The official Statutory Instrument 2000 No. 1777- The Education (Nutritional Standards for School Lunches) (England) Regulations 2000 can be found at: www.legislation.hmso.gov.uk/si/si2000/20001777.htm.
