Consultation: Healthy eating in schools

Welsh Government want your views on proposals related to food and drink in maintained primary schools in Wales. They are also calling for evidence on the food provided in secondary schools.

Wales leads the UK in providing free school meals to all primary school children. This important step helps tackle child poverty and hunger, supports learners to achieve, and contributes toward improved health, making a real difference in schools and communities across Wales.

These changes will help children:

  • develop healthy eating habits
  • access healthier food during school hours
  • make healthy food choices

Consultation ends: 29 July 2025
