Wasn’t the pledge to have free breakfast club for every primary school child?
Rolled out in 750 schools last year, 500 schools this year? Google says there are about 16000-17000 primary schools in England. Is this phases rollout supposed to last 20+ years?
Whatever the list says, the correct answer is “all of them”.
Just implement it for all primary and secondary schools, and make a healthy, nutritious lunch free for all of them too.
It’s about the single best thing you can do to improve educational and life time achievement for kids – making sure none of them go hungry, and that they’re bodies get all the nutrients they need to grow well.

would be a good article if it didn’t abuse my eyes with endless ads to make the article unreadable
Is this from tax payer money?
Why are we including some and not others?
If you Google the title of the article, you can find the government website with all the information without 75 adverts.
Something I can get behind, though I’d appreciate the UK government more if it applied to ALL schools
No child should be left behind
Brains, athletes, basket cases, princesses, criminals.
