The current lunch service starts at 12 noon with the youngest children and works upward through the year groups. The Trust expects the successful Supplier to enable the continued development of catering through the provision of an innovative, healthy food service, with fresh, seasonal and ideally some locally sourced ingredients being prepared on-site. The School and Trust expects the successful Supplier to evidence, through their bid, how they shall support and complement its values and support the principles of Every Child Matters.
