Introduction At Bidfood, we are continually inspired by our customers and share a commitment to always putting you first in every decision we make. We understand the importance of the work you do as a school caterer. When feeding school children, you are doing much more than simply providing kids with a meal: you are directly influencing their future. We don’t just mean that you are providing the essential fuel and nutrition which children need in order to excel in their education (although this is undoubtedly true!). But even more importantly, the kind of foods you expose students to today have the potential to inspire and develop great eating habits in them—habits which will stay with them for the rest of their lives. Like all important work, however, we know that catering for school children isn’t always easy. In fact, between new government guidelines and regulations, on top of the ever-changing tastes of children, catering for generation Z can often seem like quite the challenge. The following handbook aims to walk you through some of the key concerns that you are likely to have when planning school meals. This new edition covers a range of current topics: from the rise of veganism in kids to ongoing concerns over added sugar, as well as the ever-increasing focus on sustainability. Throughout, it offers helpful tips, product suggestions, and sample school-approved recipes for your consideration, while simultaneously highlighting the support which Bidfood can provide you with. We have also included several sample menu cycles to help inspire you. Ourowoelsbhpaavgeems foorre e insfocrhmaptpioonrtoynohuo, gwowto: cbaindfsouod.co.uk/schools 2
