School Meals

Our school meals are provided by AiP.  AiP support our schools by helping with the education of the children with regards to food, lifestyle and making healthy choices. AiP help promote a well-balanced diet whilst encouraging the children to try new things and to have fun with food!

AiP's aim with Food Smart is to deliver freshly prepared meals that exceed all nutritional standards. AiP only use local, fresh core ingredients including meat sourced from British farms, in-season vegetables and free range eggs. Aip uses the industry-recognised Saffron database to create compliant menus.
