Breakfasts

Breakfast is often referred to as the most important meal of the day, and for good reason! Over the last 2 years, The National School Breakfast Programme has provided 375,000 children with a school breakfast every day. As a result, schools have reported the overwhelmingly positive benefits of a school breakfast on a child’s readiness to learn, concentration, punctuality and behaviour. If you are a school that is interested in learning more about the National School Breakfast Programme, select the Breakfast at school page.  

School food is a vital part of a child’s life, however, 50% of their time is also spent at home. Therefore we have also provided some helpful resources for schools and parents alike, to ensure that children are accessing a nutritious breakfast all year round, select Breakfast at home for more information.
