Breakfast Clubs: Finance

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, how her Department plans to integrate feedback from schools on the adequacy of funding for the breakfast clubs programme.

Answered by Olivia Bailey

We have always been committed to rolling free breakfast clubs out nationally and the test and learn phase was put in place to inform how best to do so.

We have been listening to schools and other stakeholders throughout this phase and will continue to work with them to learn from our early adopters and inform national rollout. Further information on national rollout will be announced later in the Autumn term.
