Catering for Diversity in School Meals
The UK's population is more diverse than ever, and it's essential that school meals reflect this diversity, aligning with students' cultural and religious beliefs and preferences.
Creating an inclusive environment where all children feel valued partly depends on the range of food options available. Caterers must be sensitive to this when creating menus.
- The popularity of halal meat is rising, with a value of approximately 15% of the nation's overall meat and poultry sector at £1.7bn.
- Halal is projected to reach £2bn by 2028, according to research from the Halal Monitoring Committee UK and the University of Huddersfield.
Food options should reflect the diversity of the student population to make all young people feel included and adequately catered for.
Caterers need to consider this growing demand for halal and other culturally sensitive meal options to ensure all students have access to meals that align with their beliefs and preferences.
