I was happy to comment on this report for the Greggs Foundation. Moving forward if the Labour Party gets elected as the new government in July, and introduces free breakfast clubs in all primary schools then it would be worthwhile exploring how the government can work with existing charities such as Greggs Foundation , Magic Breakfast Kellogg Company and school catering companies to add additional value to Labour's commitment to ensure children are not too hungry to learn (secondary pupils are also hungry and a new report from the Nuffield Foundation showed the widening educational gap in this age group. Plus new research is showing the importance of the first 8000 days for child development). It is often forgotten or neglected that children and young people learn across the school day. The effects of breakfast consumption in terms of cognition varies according to the food consumed, but generally has worn of by late morning so the role of food across the school day needs to be considered both in terms of dietary intake but also in terms of cognition, development, sleep and well-being. Planning food across the day in terms of cognition and learning, and the school curriculum will be the most effective approach.The question should not be breakfast or lunch. Rather how can we, by working together across organisations ensure that children and young people have a nutritious, balanced diet across the school day and wrap around school services, preventing double breakfasting and ensuring nutritious food is served at all times. A coherent and integrated approach that takes a gestalt view across the different interventions, including food education, the fruit and veg scheme, would be an important step to enable the Department for Education to plan food services into schools to support children's dietary intake, cognition and learning. If we are serious about school food providing a nutritional safety net that supports child development and learning then we need to take a coherent and integrated approach across the school day and wrap around school services.

Here is a fun activity! Two years ago, I produced some materials for nonprofit boards to educate board members, volunteers and staffers on key governance, fundraising and strategic planning duties. And truly, they’re free and available on my website for downloads. They can be used in entirety or as individual sheets for board education “lessons.” But my next question is - what else does your organization need when it comes to well-curated, edited and available FREE educational resources. Because … I’m feeling productive and creative so I plan to deliver several more resources for nonprofits this summer. Some include understanding program evaluation, better human-centered program design and collective impact through collaboration. I will also put together my advocacy and education guides complete with how to build your own platform. So what else do you all need? What can I get for you? Information and education must be free and democratized. Regardless if you are a past, current, future or “probably never” client, nonprofits and the people we serve deserve free access to information.
