Schools in England must be compelled to offer pupils healthy food, not junk

The failure to fully resolve the issues surrounding school meals suggests a systemic problem that goes beyond mere policy changes. While Jamie Oliver's campaign brought significant attention to the issue, the lack of sustained commitment from policymakers indicates that the political will to prioritize children's health in school settings remains weak. This raises concerns about the long-term implications for student health and academic performance, as well as the potential for increased healthcare costs associated with poor nutrition.
