Breakfast Clubs
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, how her Department plans to measure the (a) effectiveness and (b) uptake of breakfast clubs; and whether she plans to publish this assessment.
Answered by Olivia Bailey
The department is using the findings from the early adopter phase to inform the national roll out of free breakfast clubs. We’re also committed to continuing to learn throughout national roll out and have robust evaluation activity in place, including looking at take up. This will be critical to the programme’s delivery and ensuring that the programme is evidence informed and capable of demonstrating value for money. This will be shared with the public in line with the appropriate government social research guidelines.
