What catering companies are saying

 

“We’ve put 50 school cooks through on training and seen the benefit in staff retention and uptake of school meals. We’re now at 70% in uptake in one school and it’s increased by 10% over the past year - training’s definitely had a big part to play in that.”

Penny Richards, Operations Director, Caterlink.

 

       

What headteachers are saying

"I am delighted with the standard of School FEAST training that kitchen staff receive. I would expect them to understand what it means to work with children and they do. There is a strong feeling in the school that we have a wonderful team in the kitchen who work well together and support us in encouraging children’s learning."

Nicola Day, headteacher, Cambridge.

       

What learners are saying

“Without the training I’ve had through School FEAST, I wouldn’t have had the skills to achieve the increase in take-up. In fact, I don’t think I’d be in a job today.”

Lorraine Wickstead, school catering manager, Lancashire.
