Creating a healthier school environment goes beyond just the food served in the canteen. Schools need a comprehensive approach to nutrition, which includes educating students, training staff, and building an overall culture of health.
With the NourishEd programme, schools have access to a wide range of resources that support this goal.
From creating better food policies to training staff as Certified School Nutrition Specialists, NourishEd gives schools the tools to transform their approach to health and well-being.
Steps to Creating a Healthier School Environment:
Implement School-Wide Food PoliciesA School Nutrition Specialist can help develop food policies that meet national standards, ensuring that students are given nutritious meal options every day.
Promote Healthy Eating HabitsStudents are more likely to make healthier food choices when nutrition is a visible part of school life. Promote healthy eating by involving students in cooking workshops, offering nutrition education, and making healthier options available.
Staff Well-being InitiativesThe health of staff members is just as important as the health of pupils. By integrating staff well-being initiatives into your nutrition plan, you can create a healthier environment for everyone at school.
