On demand: Happy healthy lunchtimes - midday supervisor training

90 minute bespoke training for your midday supervisors, lunchtime staff and catering team delivered in your school as a team meeting or virtually at a time to suit you.

Happy, healthy lunchtimes will support schools with delivering a positive lunchtime experience, whether eating in classrooms, dining rooms or other eating environments. The training will help you to work with and engage pupils with the food they are eating and the choices they are making.

Details

This training is suitable for lunchtime staff and those involved in the service, planning or delivery of the lunchtime experience. Lunchtimes are a central part of the school day, where children should be able to relax, socialise and enjoy a nutritious meal with their peers.

This course will help to ensure that your lunchtimes are a happy and organised environment for both pupils and staff involved. We will explore low-cost and no-cost dining room improvements and different service styles to support healthier choices and improved behaviour. The course will include learning on the School Food Standards and how to encourage and reinforce healthy choices in packed lunches.
