A whole-school approach to food

November 2024: The National Governance Association (NGA) has launched a new Learning Link e-learning module: A whole-school approach to food, developed in partnership with the Department for Education (DfE). The module, which is free to all governing board members, provides essential guidance on the legal requirements and best practices for maintaining and enhancing school food standards. Focusing on the pivotal role governing boards play in promoting student health and well-being, it offers a structured journey through understanding the School Food Standards, including why they matter, how they impact students, and what boards can do to exceed the standards and support pupil welfare. The content covers key areas such as the board’s oversight responsibilities, creating policies, and effectively monitoring school food provision. Through this training, board members will understand the legal and practical elements of food standards, ensuring that schools meet and set an example in nutrition and healthy practices.All governors and trustees can access the module free via the Learning Link Trial Site. Existing subscribers can access it via the Learning Link platform.
