Notice Description

Attending a school breakfast club and eating a nutritious breakfast can help to better support pupil attainment and attendance, wellbeing, and readiness to learn. The Authority is considering options for the provision of food to school-run breakfast clubs. In pursuance of this, the Authority is seeking information from suppliers in order to help inform the options available to the Authority in regard to how healthy food supplies can be delivered to breakfast clubs in schools across England. The Authority will be holding a market engagement event. This will support the Authority in the development and review of future requirements which support schools in providing breakfast provision. This will include consideration of engagement and support to schools in the programme and delivery of food provision. These elements may be combined or split into separate requirements. Please note that there may be both ambient and chilled food provision required. In order to deliver value for money DfE are looking for innovative purchasing solutions to maximise individual school spending.
