Education Secretary Bridget Phillipson said: "From our Free Breakfast Clubs to extending Free School Meals to over half a million more children, this means good-quality food from the moment children arrive at school to the end of the day."

Health Minister Sharon Hodgson said: “We’re determined to reduce the child obesity epidemic and the new School Food Standards represent another piece in a jigsaw of measures designed to help raise the healthiest generation of children ever.”

Following the consultation, the new School Food Standards will be in force from September 2027 – with a phased approach for some changes in secondary schools – giving schools time to develop recipes, update menus and train staff.
