About this website

healthylunch.org.uk is an exciting new resource to help you improve the quality of lunchtime nutrition for children in your school. It’s fun, effective, and easy to use.

Interactive and intelligent resources support a simple, step by step programme for you to follow. The programme is designed to help you raise awareness of the issues in school, communicate with parents, change children’s eating habits and monitor changes and improvements over time.

The website provides access to comprehensive school meal and packed lunch audit tools for teachers and children, and the multi-lingual leaflet publishing tools which allow you to produce and print your school’s own packed lunch advisory leaflets for children to take home.

Downloadable, printable resources include a packed lunch survey, evaluation and audit forms, and lesson plans for ICT and Health, PSHE and Science.

Guidance and advice is in line with Government and National Healthy Schools Programme policy, is kept up to date and will complement your school’s food policy.

The project was developed in partnership with the Healthy Schools Programme in the London Borough of Islington. It is independent of the food and related industries and its continuing development is funded entirely through subscription by local boroughs and PCTs throughout England.
