Secondary Schools
Our food services in secondary schools are specifically designed to meet the needs and wants of pupils, giving them high quality, nutritionally balanced meals at a competitive price.
We treat the 11 to 16-year-old pupils at secondary schools as customers. They have opinions, desires and choice, which means we are competing with the high street when it comes to providing school meals.
However, we have harnessed pupils' opinions, desires and ability to choose through our School Meals and Lifestyle Survey. We use the findings from the survey to design food services that meet all of our customers' requirements.
Meeting customers' needs
Our for you... food service offer reflects the standards of service you would expect on the high street, but is specifically tailored to our customers - 11 to 16-year-old pupils.
While meeting all the necessary food standards and Government regulations for school meals, the offer uses fresh and healthy ingredients to cook dishes favoured by this age group.
We provide customers with choice and flexibility, whether they want to grab a quick sandwich on the go, help themselves to the salad bar or sit down and enjoy a hot meal.
Inspired by fashion
We have our finger on the pulse when it comes to food trends within the secondary school age group and reflect those in our menus. For example, we offer filled wraps and paninis, Mexican food, stir fries and smoothies, and constantly refresh the menus to keep customer interest.
Our for you... food service offer is designed to be flexible. Not only do we tailor menus to schools' specific eating trends, but we also extend the service to breakfast clubs, mid-morning breaks and food on the go, making life easier for students and giving parents peace of mind.
