The government has announced the first 750 schools to provide free daily breakfast clubs as part of a pilot scheme ahead of a planned England-wide roll-out. Starting in April, 180,000 pupils in England will be offered “healthy, varied and nutritious breakfasts” in schools before class, Labour said – with over a third of schools in the pilot scheme in deprived areas. The scheme has been welcomed by the National Association of Head Teachers (NAHT) but concerns have been raised that funding could fall short.
