In today’s educational landscape, schools are increasingly focusing on the overall well-being of their students, not just their academic performance. A key part of that well-being is nutrition. But who is responsible for making sure that students are getting the right guidance around food and eating habits?
That’s where a Certified School Nutrition Specialist comes in.
With the NourishEd programme, schools can now train staff to become nutrition experts, helping students develop healthier relationships with food and making informed decisions about their health. This course equips teachers and school staff with the tools needed to promote proper nutrition in the school setting.
