Bite Back - fully funded secondary school programme to transform your school's food
Tuesday 27th May 2025
What’s your school food like? Is it bland and beige? Are students waiting for ages before getting to unappealing options?
If the answer’s yes, we have an opportunity for your school!
Every single child deserves access to healthy, nutritious food at school – but we all know that’s not the case. Yet.
The fully funded Bite Back in Schools Programme empowers students to transform their school food and dining experience, creating a healthier, more inclusive canteen culture.
Whether it's long queues and beige food or expensive fruit and nowhere to sit, our programme provides the structure and support for your students to identify the real challenges and solutions to your school food environment.
